What a day. So who does CNBC trot out today? The guy who coined the term "irrational exuberance", a professor from Yale who thinks the market still needs to go "much lower". Great timing CNBC. Thanks. I needed that.

>> Oh come on. So we have Alan and Abbie and all sitting around every night on a conference call coordinating these statements and actions?
>>Absurd.

Right on Diamond. I watched www.MetaMarkets.com during the day. As you probably know they are a mutual fund that publish their transactions as they make them. The thought occurred that fund managers and "the Houses" have a different problem than the single investor like you or I. When I got out completely, at noon today, I was still pretty much intact, same house, wife and job. The fund managers can never get completely out because its there job - no fund, no job.

I spent the rest of the time day trading on obvious shorts like (unfortunately) Qualcomm. The fund managers spent the rest of the day trying to find a good face to put on it
