Steven, I'm probably in the minority here, but my current strategy is to start playing the rally's, not the falls. I have been playing with long puts in the final month of expiration (I know, gambling. But only with a little of my equity.<ggg>) in the semi-tech sector. Going forward I will be playing the long calls. While we may fall further, I feel the short term bias is beginning to shift and I don't feel comfortable playing the short side of the market. So, the short answer (pun intended) is: I don't have any suggestions on the short side because my opinion is long short term. I haven't been looking for weakness, I've been focusing on finding the hidden strengths for the last week. Ira
