Poet,
I did pickup a few SPY puts after we hit the 800 level, but was too chicken to hold much long today even though I had the right idea.

Some might say fighting a Trillion $$$$'s of spending is nuts, but I think it just shows the desperation on the FED's part. The Dollar thinks so and so did Gold. Selling the fact here *might* also be smart since the we've been hearing about this news for weeks.

We'll find out in few days as I could be totally wrong and we run to 850 tomorrow <GGG>. If that's the case I'll be stopped in to ride....scared but I'll ride!! <GG>

See my Ahhah thread post on why this FED move won't work and is only giving China & Bill Gross a gift.

Added more puts soon after the open.
Timberrrrrr...?
