Think so?

I might buy some puts, but not in the energy sector.

I already sold some in the money calls today on TMAR (sold out-of-money ones also - I'm a chicken). I was thinking on buying them back since all that tech money will want to go somewhere. Not too many places for money to go. I do have short positions in some high fliers and am already almost 50% cash.

You might be right though and maybe I'm being too bold. I basically think the Dow could easily see 7000 (from Money magazine) so I guess I can wait a little while.

It seems like a lot of these oil exploration stocks are so beaten down already the downside is a lot less than just about any other sector.
