If it should take out 1270 in the next few days

If the employment numbers tomorrow morning are bad, we may see a washout to 1270 in one day. In which case, that may raise the panic level high enough for us to bounce for a week or 2. Nothing too huge, maybe a 3-4% bear market rally before new lows.

If tomorrow is not carnage, a slightly slower (and probably nastier) frog-boiling scenario seems likely to continue.

Long and strong here. (Long SDS, that is.)

My SDS is now outperforming my GLD over a 3.5-month period.

looks like we will be rewarded tonight, justly, via fxp, and the rest of the ultra shorts

asian markets in spiral dance, due to crony capitalism, without a doubt, and

empire will likely do same, due to capitalism that is crony-istic, for sure

i note that cheering the market up feels less naughty than celebrating the market down, but also less satisfying

missing a bullet is a supreme feeling, i suppose
