UCS Afternoon Update

Good morning investors. Hope everyone had a great weekend. Wow! This summer seems to be flying by. There is so much making news that it's sometimes hard to focus on what needs to be focused on. Well, strong day so far, with technology issues such as CSCO, INTC, ORCL dominating the most Actives, but the most spectacular of all the Actives is the company Human Genome Sciences, Inc: HGSI ; the stock is up 224% on good news of its Lupus drug and of a possible partnership with large deep-pocketed commercial company.

Ah, the joys of technology- that's the ticket. Of course, you can get many of the best, quality technology companies in the ProShares Technology Fund which might I say is 6 points above its 30 day moving average of $30 per share. It's made a major breakout. I am still researching three technology ETF funds that I believe will do well and will hopefully have them posted soon.

Goodbye Mike

Before I get going today, lets take a moment to honor an American Idol, a Music Titan , and a Perfect Representation of the Gods of Music ; I would like to send my condolences and respect to the Jackson family for the sudden passing of Michael Jackson . I am profoundly saddened by his death. I was trying to ignore the whole event- news of his death . It seemed like some sort of bad dream at first. However, reality has set in this morning and have left me almost speechless. Goodbye Michael! You will always be missed! 6/26/2009 9:41 AM

UCS end-of-week trading update

UCS end-of-week trading update : A-h-h, the joys of being patient. Trading activity was listless, most of the day. Around 2:00 pm, I thought traders had packed it in already and had decided to call it a week. Then all of a sudden BAM! UAW Members Approve GM Pact , the DOW turned positive, activity picked up, and the scramble was on to adjust positions before the end of the day. The ProShares Technology Fund picked up steam like a ferry headed to the Bahamas for the weekend, closing north of $29.00 with the last trade at $29.55. The fund's share volume increased from 179,00 shares to 312,400 shares, which is not the above average volume I was looking for but good enough to make this a positive week after days of listless trading activity. Next week, I am hoping that the fund can crack the $30 range barrier- we will see. Otherwise, have a great weekend folks. 05/29/09 05:26:38 PM If you are interested in trading this fund, would like a prospectus or have a question concerning this f...
