BOND GHOULS KILLED THE RALLY ON CUE AND ON -- SCHEDULE...

you think they're going to give up the ghost so easy?

Ha! People -you are being played... you know how I know? Look what they moved up today? Why financials of course! So at 3:50 or whatever fitch/insurers just by SHEER COINCIDENCE takes em out... lol... yeah right... it's starting to get silly, folks... a wee bit too transparent..how many jumped in on the breakout I wonder.

Not me -I have some acas, but until these guys stop playing these games, I say stay out of em... there are plenty of other opportunities with a lot less risk. Thats one thing I don't get here at VF - so many are willing to get whipsawed for a divi and a cheap NAV - but for me there's still too many big boys controlling the flow of info. Sometimes you're the windshield, sometimes you're the bug...

The Fed ease without end amen?

Blink and you missed it rally off Fed news after four days of the CNBC endless speculating - was there someone left in the northern hemisphere they didn't ask the 25 -50?

Nonetheless what the bond ghouls did the payroll numbers may do Friday...

Payroll numbers are the next hurdle... I don't think they will - the repubs sure can't afford it....and the numbers will get airbrushed as usual anyway...

GOLD I think is acting tight now as a barometer of anxiety level of market. The Indian chicks aren't buying now? neither am I... I have all I want...

CHINA
I still like China, anything to do with our food supply, infrastructure, and alt energy.
ALT energy, both here and abroad continue to make up a good part of my portfolio... and the higher oil goes the better for the alt energy stocks... The hardest part of this financials driven bear stuff has been bucking it - the more bear suits I saw, the more I didn't believe it. So I held onto all my long postions as they bounced along the bottom. But I was inspired by Buffet who said he never bought or sold a single share based on a Fed decision I looked the gift horse in the mouth and did NOT get my teeth kicked out... The corrections give us the opp to buy some favorites at 20 year lows we won't see again for a long long time..Selloffs with be systemic, bad news bears will not give up so easy, but that matters less to me now...I did what I needed to do...between the hedges, the uptick, the fancy gadgets that make volatility the name of the game, I am learning to live with the wild moves. My personal goal is to become less defensive. I have options available to me now.

MCD
What I did..yesterday..I bought McDonalds on the selloff -that was a no brainer.50 basis or 25, folks have to eat, and the less money they have the worse their diet becomes ie more fat - and that's why they all eat at Mcdonalds and that's why poor people are fat - they can feel full on less money there than anywhere else..next rung down I hear is a diet of moonpies and cheetohs...

GOOG
I went long goog - a first for me but could not pass up the price...or the PE....yes, it is a Value purchase.....Yahoo never did get my respect..lousy biz model.

COAL I bought virgin shares of CNX, (very unlike me as it had runup already but grabbd some at 69.89) added to my jrcc, and bought back BTU at 55.65. Have enough Joyg.. Anyone else in NCOC? Also came across some clean coal companies -
anyone do any peaking in on these?

Someone here mentioned eTrade a few weeks ago - thank you... today was the payback...
Happy trading...
