Watchlist for July 28, 2005

Man I'm beat this morning. I did a little (one day early) birthday celebrating last night and I'm paying for it now. (Where's my caffeine injection?) I would have just stayed in bed but I want to be here if we get some month-end mark-ups. It feels like the market wants to go higher and there's plenty of room for the Nasdaq to lift to its upper Bollinger Band, which is around 2,225. (I'm not saying that's going to happen, but it's certainly a possibility)

Potential swing trades:

Longs - None until August (after the earnings flood)

Shorts - None until August (after the earnings flood)

Potential day trades:
