SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- AT&T Inc. /quotes/comstock/13*!t/quotes/nls/t (T 26.25, +0.10, +0.36%) said it plans to take a non-cash charge of about $1 billion in the first quarter following the passage of the health-care reform bill earlier this week, according to a filing submitted by the company Friday. The telecommunication giant will also evaluate changes to its health care benefits for employees and retirees.

Okay stupid mouse hit the keyboard and everything i typed got erased. I'm not going to retype everything. The jist of it all is XRT (retailers) look over extended and I'm going to short that instead of adding more to BBY. I also think BBY is going to refill that gap it built before it goes back up. I just don't see this stock jumping up again. Their stores have minimal volume each time I go and even with the new gadgets, its just not there yet. So I think we'll put back.

Anyway -- this is one of my plays heading into next week.

Just looking around and wanted to post one of my favorite stocks from last year. JAZZ -- been playing these guys off and on since $6 -- they've been GREAT.

Short term - i'm expecting a pullback here as it has gone straight up so I will be looking at some key support areas to see whether it breaks and stays below it or bounce back up.

Also interesting to note the optimism on the call side for Jazz -- Doesn't necessarily mean people are expecting $12 in May for Jazz. It could also mean people are selling those calls to make some premium in this pullback. However, heavy volume on the call side is usually considered to be bullshit.
