Don't think the market is going to gap either way tomorrow. I'm all cash and will reassess tomorrow.

Well, I am frustrated as hell.
It isn't that I mind being down a little on some May puts; it's not understanding the movement all day long- or the rationale.
We slowly fell all day and suddenly for no reason- SHOT up the last hour to the highs and I HATE not understanding. I am neither bear nor bull; I just want it to make sense! Are people getting leaked INTC info early?
Am I the last to figure this out?

Go long and don't be so puzzled. The market has written off 2-3 bad quarters and are looking ahead. You should too. Nobody even cares much about these warnings anymore because they were more than priced-in and consensus realization is we're at the tech bottom now (give or take). There are still some cheapies sitting on the bottom too like LU, PALM, NOVL, WCOM, FON, UIS and more. Buy them if you want to make some profits here. Or go with the leaders. Or stay out. Or do whatever you want. But don't get in the way of the recovery rallies. It will hurt. I'm loaded for bear now right up until May 15 at least. Might even buy more tomorrow on margin if we don't get a 100+ point Naz pop right away. Buy the dips and hold 'em. For 25% minimum average. The bear market is over because it went too far too fast and priced in a longterm major recession/depression which will probably never even happen, or will certainly be over by winter. Go with the flow now. Up, up, UP!
