BullsGetRichPigsGetSlaughtered.Com ;-) Trying to tell us something. ;-) That summarizes my strategy lately perfectly. Of course it can cost me a few bucks. EPNY DOH. But I believe it will serve me well the next week or so. BTW- I am seriously, almost definitely going to short the QQQ's, DIGL, and/or EPNY tomorrow or Mon. Tell me you won't be up tonight to sing me lullabies.

Well the bed refused me :-(. This gave me plenty of time to think about what a great couple of weeks its been for us. I want the run to continue (and all the indicators are in our favor) but I think we need to be careful with the techs here. Losses come easier than gains and after the last 3 months I'm not in any mood to give anything back to the market. However, as the economic news continues to flow I get the feeling that we may be in for NO rate increase in August. It's too early to say for sure but one of the areas that will benefit first (assuming no rate hike or the final one) will be the financials. They have been beaten down in a big way and are showing up in my queries more often. They aren't as sexy as techs and may not fly as high or as fast but they may provide stability going into the "no news vacuum" of August. This doesn't mean we shouldn't be eagerly looking at techs but rather taking more of a cautious approach to them as we near the month of August.
