Chart courtesy of stockcharts

AAPL shares were up again reaching a new historic level at 109.13$ , however have closed at 108.74 up 1 from the previous session. Over the past 8 days, Apple stock has had incredible buying pressure, the stock has gone up 8 days in a row and 13 out of the last 16 trading days, WOW amazing performance for a stock like AAPLE. I think at this levels a pullback for a profit taking should soon occur, only a shortly correction I suppose according to the technical chart above, due the fact that stock is trading in a severely overbought conditions.

Sell in May and go away ? I don't know !!!!

It's that time of year again, and this year I'll probably follow the history due to the nice run that markets have done since August, however looking at markets the same pattern persists and I'm still Bullish.

Shares of YHOO rose 10% on Friday after published reports that Microsoft may try to buy the Internet search firm. The New York Post, and the Wall Street Journal, reported that Microsoft may want to buy the firm in what could be a $50 billion deal. A spokesman for Yahoo said the company wouldn't comment on market speculation. After this news it's difficult to predict the next movement of the stock, however looking at the chart, yesterday volume was huge and MACD back again above 0, a good signal for Bulls.

ALEX stock has been doing well this year, making new highs, next week keep an eye on ALEX for a possible breakout over 55.25$. I will be watching it closely.

AET shares breakout this week an important resistance at 47$. The stock chart looks strong, but we could see now some profit taking due the fact that stock reached overbought conditions as chart shows, however stock is in a Breakout mode. Support 47$ , no resistances above.
