High priest of doom and gloom? I guess that puts you in the same class as Henry Kaufman <g>. I have been called a "scummy little creep" myself. Not to speak of moron, jerk, numbskull, idiot, and so on. Wild-eyed bulls snort and slobber. My understanding is that this kind of volatility has always been associated with the collapsing stages of a mania. I am trying to hold steady with some puts on financials and shorts on the less volatile indexes (S&P and Dow); I have lots of cash to make sure these stay in place indefinitely. Am also heavy into energy, especially natural gas, which I think might stay in crisis mode for a couple of years, at least. Trying to pick out a wide assorment of small producers vulnerable to buyouts, and also royalty trusts. Am also into the Euro, BEGBX, and BEARX: quote.yahoo.com
