[professor_frink]

Been waiting for this for the last few days since Edwood's post...wanted to try and catch all the move down this time...been short since 6171, so i missed the first 20-40 pts. (upper RH corner)

Just added another position.

Edwood I’m a believer now
The second solar eclipse of 2007 is a partial eclipse of the Sun, on September 11,
I'm stocking up the tin food and water and digging a hole in the floor for a hideout.

no fear there! I still have a bottle from 1999, it only comes out for guests who are being loud & obnoxious at parties. can't remember what it is but it has some insane alcohol content. should be labeled "paint stripper" instead of Vodka!

I just heard those comments recently actually!

Gave back over $500 of my shorts and cashed out with Beer money only..just went long on the DJI index. If i didn't have to work i might have saved some dough today...oh well, this is fun.

Cheers,

I once saw a bottle of Polish Drinking Spirit at a bottleshop. It was labeled as 80% alcohol content (160% Proof), self preservation told me not to buy it.

The "is the Fed going to cut?" guessing game is giving the market whiplash.

My "guess".... They will cave in to the Wall St @ssholes and cut the base rate in September.

The negative consequences have been discussed ad naseum here and all over the freaking internet... as Erin Burnett said - Armageddon.

This is apparently bullish and will spark a heated rally.

Shorts should be very %$#ing careful from here until October IMO.

for my 2cents worth I think you're probably right Wayne. SPI is looking pretty strong, has retraced 78.6% of its drop while US is still only around 50%. Also noted a headline on marketwatch overnight quoting Ben as saying he is "ready to act"

Way to many late Bears at this camp. Think they are going to get knocked off by the Ranger in his annual cull. We have some huge open interest in most Futures all over the place. Any short squeeze will be very painful this baby could really run here. Even with a knocked around economy.

I tend to agree with Wayne re his views with the potential fed actions.

IMO market will get quite choppy in the next few weeks, possibly even range bound in that time frame (wave B) awaiting a fed response.
My thinking is this will be a springboard for one last push to recovery highs but still below the all time highs(wave C) to finish this countertrend(if in fact that is what it is) by late Sept/early October when a next leg down starts again.

Cheers

Been playing the long side all day on the SPI & HSI. Have made a nice profit but ever time I sell I then have to go back in and buy higher.

Boy is it Bullish out there.
