Be careful with the DUG.
It is not highly correlated with the price of crude as the USO is.
Also, the USO might be hard to borrow depending on who your broker is.

Paulson is such a fool.
He really does deserve to be taken into a back alley in the San Francisco "Tenderloin" district and . . .
And no, the Enron "loophole" still has yet to be closed and may not be until the Fall of 2008 even though Senator Carl Levin introduced a Bill to close the...
The market simply rolled-over and retraced 61.8% of today's early morning up move. No big deal.
Tomorrow morning will be key to see if 1312.00 SPX holds.
If so, we could see yet another 21 point rally back up towards 1333 and yet still be in a downtrend.

SPX came down to a touch below the .618 retracement.
It would be nice to hold the 1312.00 level tomorrow morning and then rally back up for a 21-point "c" wave that gets us back up to 1333 which is where resistance would be from last Wed/Thurs lows.
Don't need to.
I'm not on ET to stroke my Ego.
I usually am on here just to hang out with my technical "buds" down in the EWT thread in Technical Analysis.
Good Luck to you.
FYI:
SUN just got slammed by a "downgrade" as the analyst Jacques Rousseau at Soleil sees Q-2 EPS at .80 cents from $1.00 per share. He's at $3.45 for the full year.
The rest of the Street is at $1.34 for Q-2 so says Thomson Financial.
Full year consensus is at $3.15
Perhaps some...
