Added Shares

Bought more shares of UltraShort Financials ETF(SKF) and UltraShort Real Estate ETF(SRS). There are rumors that the SEC will reinstate the uptick rule thus making ETF’s like these irrelevant. I think that these ETF’s are a solid option right now as financials have experienced a huge run up over the past month.

I sold off some of my Mittal Steel(MT) shares. The stock has risen over 24% in less than a week and I figured that it would be best to take some profits.

Bought Mittal Steel

Bought 100 shares of Mittal Steel (MT) at $21. I have owned shares in Mittal Steel for the past three years but at a much higher cost basis. I think that many of the metals like steel, aluminum have already bottomed. Oil appears to have bottomed in the 30′s and has been on a tear climbing all the way to the mid 50′s. Hopefully, demand will pick up for metals as well which would help companies like Mittal.
