the markets are toast in 07. recession a high, high probability.
Quote from john99:
NQ is the best short, YM and ER2 are being lifted on light volume right at the open, if 1440 on ES is taken out the rally will continue. The volume moving these markets up is hard to believe. Options exp. on friday, should be interesting with the year end.
Quote from BlueStreek:
what are you talking about hg i told you the qqqq`s would break 43 AND THEY DID, i told you apple would hit 82 before it hit 92 when it was 86....I WAS RIGHT, I called rimm when it was up pre-market in the 140`s that it would sell off to the 125 level I WAS RIGHT.....i think it has been to the 127`s and eventually over the next 3 weeks it will hit the 125 mark. I told everybody here to buy puts on google when it was 515.00. I was right!
Moreover, I told everybody to buy puts at .30 to .40 cents last week on the qqqq`s that you could have sold for .80 on Tuesday morning...again I was right!
And I will be right tomorrow that the nasdaq finishes in the red tomorrow------hey I have made more money shorting the qqqq`s with my puts over the last few months b/c of this trading range than anybody buying the dips----those puts have made me over 19,000 in less than 2 months on the same initial investment that I still own the same number of units on as of my original trade 2 months ago.
Moreover, the meter is still running on this trade til jan 07----i bet I clear 35,000 just on this trade alone by then---the original puts have not only paid for themselves, but given me an extra 9200, and I still own the original puts----all with the market not really going fully my way yet----must be nice to be so right even when you are wrong......lol.....suckers.......don`t buy all the hype.....you don`t actually think any money managers will be holding ANYTHING in the first part of 2007 do you?

2 bullish economic indicators came out today above expectations: midwest chicago fed manufacturing, and new housing.
bonds are selling off; oil is getting cheaper ... there needs to be an economic catalyst for a selloff...
these markets are DOGS already !!!! you want a correction? we've barely had a run !!!!
look at HSI, or better yet HHI.HK for my definition of an overbought market. The US markets are the DEFINITION of rational. no volatility; no upside right now !!!
come back to the thread when you do that, and we'll talk.
Disclosure: i'm short housing and long tech... and grumpy about it to boot.
