Yes, from one evidently lucrative point of view the play may be to position trade this Short and scale in. Never did the scale thing though. I just never could get my arms around scale trading. I like to sleep at night. I cannot tell you how many times when a trade was on overnight I awoke at three in the morning to check Globex. I should buy an explosives factory, a munitions dump of some sort. I need something with a more calming sense of ownership. Actually, a lot of my posture these days is in the bond market. The dive in the equity market does not hurt overmuch but I sense it's a harbinger of bad times to come for the overall good of the many. I guess I'm too liberal. Must have been the result of coming of age in the 1960s. But it still bugs me that I sense the global economy shall be full of termites in the near term at least. Hope not, but of course I wish you well in your Short position anyway.
