Jay,

Re: shorting the housing market

As a paired trade, you could go long TXY, only now approaching 50dma

Todays report; sold 1/3 of my position of APLX for 8.00 paid 7.27 and 1/3 of my position of INNO for 4.73 paid 4.36. I still like both stocks but went a little insane by buying so many shs. Actually wuz on margin.....Not good under these mkt conditions....Not the time to try and be a hero..

YTD up about 10%.Which ain't too shabby all things considered. Mostly on the backs of INTN and MIX my two largest holdings and in spite of my short ill conceived heavy foray into WGAT.
