Quote from Brandonf:
Ask yourself that again in 6 months. That said there are stocks to buy. I bought MEAS three days ago and am happy with it, will add to it if it can clear todays highs. IRIS is another stock in a great sector showing good strength. If it can break higher I will buy it. The catch though is that I have a much bigger short position in the IWM because we have, even if stocktrader and mini dont like it, entered into a bearish phase in the market. (Note I did not say we are yet in a bear market) The big test is going to be when we retest the lows. If those can hold, then all the short bets will come off, if they cant we have a lot of downside in front of us.

mmm hmmm. Yes, I do like that short IWM part. Long to SPX if you have to , but certainly short the IWM.
