<actually buying and holding stocks>

ACK, an Investor! homepages.enterprise.net

(I'm really ticked, the kid came in and interrupted me and I lost the original message. From what I can remember it went something like...)

I would say the intention is to drive the market over 8500, Cowboy.
(Don't ask me to explain any of this, it was in the original message. You know computers, it's out there somewhere.)

If I were a gambling man, I would short the market early and be careful of a bounce mid-day or late afternoon. Then, I might look for a good place between Thursday afternoon and Friday to buy March DJ puts for Monday, expecting a minor rally mid-week and a failure by the end of the week.

But that's if I were a gambling man. (I would insert an "Old and In The Way" midi in there but it's a pain to find and I am annoyed I lost the first message as it is. This may be more appropriate anyway.)
