You got a vote, AA?

As usual, I'm torn. Max pain says we sell off in non-tech at least, but maybe we satisfied it last week. Lotta charts look pointed up (SMH anyone?). That said, the BKX still hasn't set a new high for the move, despite the OEX, SPX and INDU doing so. That's not a healthy divergence, imo. Of course, that can continue for sometime.

I think for now, I'd vote for number 2, and I'm holding my SMH calls to prove it <g>

Not filling the gap actually would not really surprise me (I assume you're talking only near-term). So I vote for #1.

Don't worry 'bout QCOM, red already. Canary or anti-stock?

Although I doubt you were looking for a poll, I'll chime in with my bet for #1.

And I'm short GM since late last week so I hope I'm right that it all comes back down...

Stopped out of MXIM earlier today. Teach me for going long something in the dessert zone. -g/ng

Am I ready to say the dessert is over? Not quite. I do not mind watching for a spell. I have said for weeks that the next big/long-duration trade is a short trade. We have also discussed here the strategy of letting the first wave go by -- the alternative is trying to catch the top, and we know that has crushed many people since at least May.

From an Elliott perspective, it is hard to see a crushing count here. When I have more time, I look forward to reviewing what folks have been saying on the board.

After some boring months, this is a very interesting time.
