Weekly: Good news and bad news

On Thursday, the bull market accelerates to the upside. The good news is that the rally is broadening. The bad news is that June is typically a flat month, and that the summer rally is often the weakest rally of the year. That said, a lot of stocks look bullish. I roll a bunch of sold puts up in price, and out to July. I leg into an iron condor in AMZN. New long are FDX JPM. Also in the cup half empty category is that I am up for the week, but am falling further behind SPY as it roars ahead.

Here are the trades (p = puts, c = call, sell means sell-to-open, cover means buy-to-close, number near the end of line is price per contract).
