Slider: King dollar not only threatens US corporate profits, but could also trigger a wave of defaults on dollar denominated international debt.

Slider: The ol' gold sector had a lot of PR today. Can not complain one bit about it. Thanks for the input on the homebuilders. I agree the party is over for the builders, and want to join in on the short side. Do not have the capital to do too much, but am looking at it for a sweet deal. Definitely in good position for gold rally; and have improved at keeping cash on the ready (for the big dip buy opp). Not sure how you are treating this current situation; but I have put a bit more into the PM sector, than as in the past. Also doing quite a bit lately with short term trade opportunities, like the Tyson (.70/sh) last week and the trade on WFHC today (.60/sh). Just hope I do not screw up on a quick trade. I try to watch for a trend and confirm with the daily chart on those deals. Usually wait for a dip during the day and watch em close with a finger on the trigger; or most times just watch and learn. Shocked to see a fav FWC really get wacked today, so much that I am thinking about watching it close tomorrow. Just for the record concerning NYSE and NAZ for tomorrow, what with the FOMC rate news (if any): You think we may see a big drop at open, rally from ?AM to 3:00 and sell off; or what? I am sure we may see a very large point range, just do not know what the money will do exactly, no matter what the news. I think last rate news day: Watched the market go down all AM; then up big for an hour or so, before the news; then a sharp decline after, in a show of no satisfaction. One thing is for sure; this bear market can do bad things to a portfolio, in the blink of an eye. Hope you had enough HM for today! Later; Rails PS: If I remember, Iso may like to see about some Boeing on the cheap. A recent NASA program listed the two main space contractors as Boeing and LMT. Kind of agree with Iso, thinking here that the long term buy of the century may be upon us fairly soon.
