Monday Morning Awesomeness: Tech Deals and Commodity Fears

The deal between $DELL and $PER was all the talk on the StockTwits Stream this morning.  Tech deals have picked up recently, and many may start asking this question, “Who’s up next?”

This tweet refers to this chart that shows the recent run in $GLD has only been in dollars.  While this relationship is nothing new, its definitely important to keep in mind.

Contrahour points out a negative release from $POT on Friday afternoon and that it could infer even more negative news to come.  $POT down big today.

Is a pickup in IPO’s a sign of continuing market stability or a sign that informed money is selling at the top?  The $CYOU IPO that IconoInvestor refers to has doubled since going public.

Adam Warner shows how much more sophisticated StockTwits can be than CNBC in just 140 characters.

Two interesting tweets  about the current levels of commodities.  With crude oil just below $70, we are definitely at pivotal levels.

Someone knew something last week about the $PER buyout.  If you believe that the tech buyouts will continue, you may want to look at the options markets for clues.

There are many obvious similarities between what $AMZN is doing with the Kindle and what $AAPL did with the iPod.  Like $AAPL, the key for $AMZN will be if the device can drive sales of the digital format in the store.

Both guys nailed the late morning bounce right on the head.  Very prophetic.

I agree with Steven.  It seems that the move of the day affects the sentiment.  Interesting phenomenon to watch.
