I am going to do something for you I don't usually waste my time with when dealing with people the likes of you. I am going to tell you something you need to hear. This market is in a downtrend! It is a bear market until it proves otherwise. I think the bears are pissed-off and ready to take this market down another notch. I personally want to see Nasdaq 1000 so bad I can taste it. I want to see the foreclosures mushroom, and the unemployment lines of INTERNET PUNKS swell. We need to cleanse the economy of the poisons that have built up over the last decade and if all goes well, CNBC will be forced off of the air, when the general public is sick and tired of gambling in the stock market, and hearing these vicious empty suits talk trash. Crooks like GSCO, MER and their talking heads and so called analysts like Abby J should be in jail or hit with fines or at the very least lose their credibility. Now clowns tend to think that shorts are idiots like them and never are anything but short the market. The clowns that think that are sadly mistaken. Just to let you know that I am not just interested in just shorting, I am interested in making money. I let the market do the talking and I try to listen to what the market is saying. I am still VERY BEARISH on the market. However, I do trade rallies within that overall bear market. If you short at the beginning of a bear market and cover your shorts at the end of the bear market that,in my opinion, is long term position trading. It is the same as the person who buys and buys more on weakness throughout a bull market but not the same as the people that do not realize that the biggest lie on wallstreet is buy and hold forever! You best know that companies aren't good investments forever(especially tech stocks)... The more meaningfull moves you can get, the more profits you should have. If I follow the philosophy of those who have suggested to sell the rallies within a bear market I are doing the same thing as those people who buy all sell offs in bull markets. At least two things are happening in both situations: 1)They are averaging their position and 2)They are putting MORE capital in the markets on each reaction in the opposite direction, whether bull or bear. But you damned well better know whether you are in a bear or a bull and people like you don't have a clue. Now before buying stocks, CAVEAT EMPTOR You look down before you look up. The day of reckoning is coming. Japan, Russia, S Korea, Indonesia saw it. Now it is the US' turn. I will leave you with that knowing you will never understand it so don't jack with me anymore with you idiotic crap. OK? Monty
