Sell the rallies -- Nassim Taleb (author of The Black Swan) interview on Charlie Rose (about 20 minutes) -- more bearish than Roubini? Yikes!

He came off as more bearish than Roubini last night in this latest Charlie Rose interview, and advocates only putting on "bi-modal" trades where you use a small percentage of capital to place "black swan" type option bets on out of the money strikes, so to speak. But he has kept lots of dry powder, 80%-90% in cash and equivalents, at the remainder in risky investments. He does not like "medium risk" investments, because they probably are higher risk than you think.
