All: back to stocks. Assuming a top, is it time to short to the hilt? I am so tired of flying junk (many of my shorts) durability that I have largely capitulated to there will be a bounce because the money is out there and will continue to be out there. Sector rotations are a possibility with the narrowness of the rise in index stocks versus most other stocks. Any strong sentiments one way or the other?

I am trying to take a skittish view and avoiding major positions in the flying junk. Instead I am counting on a traders market--a lot of sideways general movement with individual ups and downs and going for 20-40% short term gains, rather than riding positions for years if need be (as I still am with CTXS and ZITL).

Best regards,
m
post-edit addition: instead I am trying to take many minor positions in flying junk that seems to have temporarily gone above the midpoint of the annual high-low, preferably as near the high after hype as practical
