I'm changing my guess to DSCO (Discovery Laboratories Inc.) for SELL 1- dance music of the 60s and 70s. My first pick was an OTC stock, probably not very tradable.

just bc the overall market is going up, doesnt mean everything is going up... today 1/3 of the market was down. also new lows outpaced new highs by far
just bc the market goes up doesnt mean you should buy everything.. whats the point then?
