Cutten- thanks for another very informative post. You are by far one of the most interesting/informative posters to read. What do you think of the consumer staples? I'm very high on KFT, KO, DEO, MO, PG at this point due to falling commodity prices and a flight to safety. Look at GIS-- came...

Who are all the people in shorts carrying boxes on CNBC right now? Are those LEH folks cleaning out their desks?
