      Post Election Stock and Sector Performance
      Thanks for the research, but some things missing.....the "worst performers" chart kind of reverses itself before we know the "who" was getting elected. Of course the whole market rallied....GGP was up something like 96% in 2 days or so!!! GGP was actually one of the best performers before/into the election.

      Not being a stockpicker though, I owned a DEC 540 Russell 2k call and sold it once the election results were out, then bought the Ultra Russell ETF (UWM) and sold a call against it and covered the short call position recently.

      Using History to Plan Near-Term Investing
      btw (in all fairness to bears AND bulls) NO mention on ETFs so a couple of funds......
      SIJ: 2x inverse Dow Jones
      UXI: 2x leverage positive Dow Jones index
      Rydex also provides some funds (i.e. REC/RFN)

      I like this picture with the article showing the 5/12/2000 end date.
      so i pulled 5/12/2000 DJI price: 10,600
      also, this is showing a 86% return trough to peak and even ignores "near term" 1933 recovery
      lol....what a joke

      Responding to "cheekybastards&q... comment......
      numbers can be thrown about FOREVER....it only adds fuel to the fire and selling pressure.......big surprise, but consumers have been living off of credit for YEARS (i still know for a fact my parents have not paid off their house)....Eventually however, they will.
      IMHO: The "credit crisis" and "Is Your Money Safe" headlines on CNBC are a bit overdone at this point and it's time to invest when the blood on Wall Street is at it's deepest.....
      As far as 200 MDA...good for chartists looking for short term bounce plays.....if i remember correctly however JNJ and USO were doing both. An "exit" strategy is nothing more than a stop "loss" order IMHO......and YES, you WILL take a loss (only to see it rebound sometimes!!!). Sorry, but myself, i don't trust those who claim themselves "chartists" because it does not work all the time. IMHO, you want companies with strong fundamentals or index funds as the article outlines if you cannot find good stocks...

      VIX Options as Portfolio Insurance
      Good post, there is also come good info on CBOE's site.
      I think things will get better (like to be not completely bearish), currently I'm cost averaging into VXN puts, but you can options strategies just like any other asset (calendar spreads, etc.).
