Not that it makes losing money any easier, but just about everything was down today. I suspect that some large funds are scouting short positions in the big nets. They are probably relying on a post-earnings net swoon which often occurs at about this time in the cycle. Difference is that we have not seen new highs recently and the bond appears to be moving against them. But they still might muster enough fear from guys like us to make their "short-play" worth it. I'd be surprised if the institutions are doing much selling. At least not yet.
