I do have some cash that I was planning to invest last week and have not yet decided what I will buy.

I started nibbling just before the event. Fortunately, just a nibble.

This is from Jim Cramer:

<<...I mention that not because I am not being callous, but I am being asked what I would do and I am not going to say, "I would be doing nothing," When I was running other peoples' money, I could not afford to be above that kind of trade. I had to do what was necessary.

That said, I would not short. I said the same to Jeff Berkowitz. There are plenty of ways to make money without having to bet against companies crippled by this act of war. You readers know me by now. I have no desire to think about stocks right now. Not when there are memorial services to attend and families down the block to be comforted. But at what point do we let the terrorists decide that they can shut us on Wall Street down at their whim? >>
