Both, but will end up being a safe haven.

John, considering that tomorrow's impending correction was triggered by Intel's earnings shortfall, I expect that we'll see the damage eventually settle during the day on where earnings are suspect, i.e., the big cap techs and possibly telecomm (carrying over from Wednesday's Sprint warning). But if/when we eventually get the type of sell-off motivated by inflation, high interest rates or currency weaknesses, THEN we'll have to worry as much about energy shares as about everything else. Not to say that energy won't also be down tomorrow, but if so, then just not as much as the others.

John -

Best of luck to you all - I'm not relying on luck. Have QVQVN's (ref post #73433) and other puts and gold. Did sell the FGH, kept the KEG, SCSWF and some PKD, but those can expire with little harm. Resisted the urge to add anything except bear load.

Did well trading the qqq puts until yesterday, which made no sense to me at the time. Got back on that horse today and traded for a profit and am holding.
