Thoughts from the BK thread!
A great article posted, but I thought the most interesting was:
In this business, you never stop learning. Let me put it another way. If you stop learning, you're on your way to going out of business. Wall Street is a tough teacher but also a good teacher. If you have any weakness -- arrogance, lazines, stinginess, cowardice, procrastination -- the market will zero in on that weakness and make you pay dearly. In this business, you listen, you think, you ponder, you struggle, you wrestle with the gods of the market, and if you're me, you put yourself on the line. When you do that, you take a chance of looking like a damn fool. And if the stock market has the opportunity, believe me, it will make you look like a damn fool, at least for a while.
Took advantage of the sell-off in HD Friday to commit the Phleet. Fool or otherwise is to be quickly determined.
Next report will be from the Swamp as I go for a much needed visit. It looks to me that Gersh will know by Tuesday whether his puts are fish or fowl? OEX may have broken Friday but I still expect another charge at SnP 1480. We probably only need to watch GE. If it breaks its horizontal support then bye-bye.
