    Pelosi and Reid are going to hold Bush's nose in the stink a little bit longer (but not long enough for my liking), and then they'll buckle and bail everyone out.

    Yeah!! Western Civilization will be saved!!

    Cha-ching!

    That light at the end of the tunnel is definitely an oncoming train...

    ...but let's enjoy the walk a little longer.

    What about your model of which sectors will do well after we step away from the abyss...

    financials first?

    Fear is receding short and long term.

    there is still a ton of fear in the 3 month tbill...

    but they are buying the 6 month and 1 year...

    always financials first....

    I think retail will get killed from now till November....

    We will get a relief rally (assuming it happens) but still there is a recession

    Interesting. FusionIQ is banging the table on Lazyboy (LZB) and Fred's (FRED).

    I tend to agree with you about retail, but even with crappy housing numbers, these two stocks are up.

    Maybe time to fade them, but FusionIQ is uncanny. Rode KBR short from 19.20 to 16.95, now it's still going down.
