Jamie: I believe it, as I also have a buy signal ( very short term )
and it don't have a lot of strength to it. Mid term is mixed to
negative,
I'm still on the fence as getting out of a short term buy is not
always easy if she does turn south , so it says up but not up a
lot , if I see the midterm signal get better I may try a buy
but I'm looking more for a top to short at.

BTW did you read Rumblings at ?
homestead.com
if so in it I talk about a long SPY short MDY hedge,
forget the BUY spy on that; the way to balance the hedge
is use something like Vanguard 500 index fund for the long side
and buy the exact dollars in it ; as you short the MDY.

As crazy as it may sound Since May 13th 1998,
it's made 18.57 % , that's a little better than it would normally do
as 16% a year is average.
It's not a get rich hedge but the long term risk
is zilch. It's a Very good strategy for widows and orphans,
or fixed income people.
