But markets are not known for their courage, and what they muster will at some point next week turn to calculation aimed at preserving capital. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm This is how I feel......we must preserve our capital....I am a proud American but what good am I doing anyone to not be a good steward of my money. Bin Ladin has been shorting and now someone's trying to tell us not to short the market......or how to invest if we are Americans and patriotic. If there is profit with guilt and you can't handle it ........a suggestion........take a % of the gains and send to one of the relief funds. The people telling you how we shoud invest will be there doing just the opposite......it will be business as usual. I am mostly in cash and will probably stay that way unless I see a buying opportunity......still have a few puts on EBAY and will probably hold on or if they go down a lot I might sell them. I do not feel unpatriotic ........ but I am now wondering if Greenspan felt unpatrotic when he raised the rates and we lost all of our money. Right! dealie (still love America, the Flag, Mom and Apple Pie)
