We may well be approaching the point where getting short and staying short is the least risky approach. It is a tough call. I've been short non-stop for about the last two months. It hasn't been easy, and it likely hasn't been as enormously profitable as for some on this board. But it may be close, as I did rotate some semis to homebuilders and IBM. I've supplemented my returns with some pretty good day trading shorts. My big reason for this is one day in the not too distant future I figured we'd get a big puking followed by another the following day. In the absence of that, I'll cover a lot for a bounce at 1200 Naz.
