  • we may rally next 1 to 3 days. Going to get short then. Shorting in anticipation of market drop and will cover everyone is shorting. risky
    Thu, Nov 05, 2009
  • Thinking of TZA and FXP...had already shorted EWZ and IYR, but cashed out. Best be patient here.

  • SPY trading above VWAP...watch for lift off
    Fri, Oct 16, 2009
  • Bought a little USO on the oil breakout. Planning on a short term profit opportunity
    Thu, Oct 15, 2009
  • 30yr auction was poor. If $ weakness continues, not good for long bond. Staying on sidelines and watching. Reasonable chance rates go up
    Thu, Oct 08, 2009
  • Just waiting for tops in equities, gold and silver. sitting on sidelines and watching 3 month LIBOR and swap/credit spreads like a hawk
    Wed, Oct 07, 2009
  • JNK gapped lower. Perhaps the last piece of the puzzle is falling in place. If Junk bonds drop a lot, that should lead to stocks falling too

  • sitting tight, own cheap SPY 108&109 september 30 calls. hoping we rally next 3 days. then consider small shorts on stocks, gold, long TLT

  • Betcha SPY closes above 106.40 by close of business today. At the moment. Right now it is 104.66 at 2:15PM
    Fri, Sep 25, 2009
  • bought some very cheap SPY 108 and 109 Sept 30 calls. rally running out if time...so if it is to make a new high, has to be soon
    Fri, Sep 25, 2009
  • bought SRS today. if Fed doesnt have any plans to help commercial real estate over next few days, will short commercial RE heavily
    Wed, Sep 23, 2009
  • Shanghai hit "Bump&Run Reversal" line and dropped, head towards 2500. 3MLIBOR will widen in October (year-end). bad for assets, good for $
    Fri, Sep 18, 2009
  • stayed long TLT, short FXI, very long SPY (covered by 106puts). watching gold and silver. prepared to go long (with put protection) or short
    Wed, Sep 16, 2009
  • If GLD crosses 100, planning to get long against puts.
    Tue, Sep 08, 2009
  • It looks like a top is in place for the market at the 1039.4 intraday high on the S&P. Break of 978.51 should confirm the same
    Fri, Sep 04, 2009
  • All the bear call spreads and SPY puts doing their job well. Between owning puts and calls, am long vol and that is serving me well
    Tue, Sep 01, 2009
  • own a lot of spy puts from 99 to 103, sold 104 puts. own a lot of alls from 102 to 105. sold bear call spreads on eem
    Mon, Aug 31, 2009
  • Thinking hard of how much rally is left. Could be 0% to 6%. Vol is cheap, so using options to prepare for mkt move in either direction
    Mon, Aug 31, 2009
  • Bought cheap out of the money sep calls on EEV, TWM, FXP, SMN etc. Also, SSO. will make money in big move either way.
    Mon, Aug 31, 2009
  • Emerging mkts starting their trend lower? May sell EEM bearish call spreads. Careful as $ not rallying hard, LIBOR, swap spreads still low
