OT

<so do YOU have anything to sell that would be a 'fear' sell?>

No. I'm at max loss already. All the protective Puts are 2+ strikes out of the money by now and have little if any time premium. I might/probably will begin to roll them down to current strikes so I can lose some more time premium (or at least be in a position to profit if it rallies back up one or more strikes).

I'm going to buy some LSI sometime today soon.

OT 14:21 ET Market weighed down by terrorism concerns : Geopolitical events have decisively retaken center stage today, as various headlines over the weekend have roiled stock markets around the world. After Israel assassinated Hamas founder Ahmed Yassin, Hamas and various Palestinian groups vowed revenge on Israel, and for the first time threatened the U.S., saying that America's backing of Israel made the assassination possible. According to an MSNBC report, Phil Flynn, senior market analyst with Alaron Trading, said "The threats for revenge from Hamas have the markets on edge. We've seen a flight to quality in the bonds," he added, noting that "this latest incident regarding Hamas will increase the risk of the terror premium in the markets." In addition, traders have even less inclination to buy following various news reports that al-Qaeda may have BOUGHT A SUITCASE-SIZED NUCLEAR WEAPON in Central Asia, and that al-Qaeda's al-Zawahiri may have escaped in a secret tunnel from Pakistani troops. To top it all off, China engaged in some of its usual sabre-rattling following Taiwan's elections, and Afghanistan's Aviation Minister was assassinated in Herat, which led to some of the heaviest fighting between two rival warlords in that country since the Taliban were ousted.
