Now that the market has positioned itself for tomorrow's S&P open (apparently the market is happy with a close today something near 1095, and if it's happy, i'm happy for it). The question for me now is: "Are we going to have the mini- crash (dip) below 1000 to the 970-980 area between tomorrow and the first week in August-- or should I give up on that and start preparing now for Ben's onslaught on the dollar going into the November election. I think we can keep the dollar down very nicely and crude up and still get refiner prices down at the pump. It will take a little cleverness. But we can always retain the GS boys and girls (Abby, i'm talking about you girl.) as consultants if we can't think of anything clever enough on our own. (GS could always drop RBOB all together from the GSCI if drastic measures are needed -- I'm sure they could always come up with an excellent reason such as, "after careful consideration we believe the index will better reflect overall commodity prices by dropping gasoline and adding bananas."
*As a footnote, I expect SET tomorrow to be lower than 1095, but what do I know?
