Stock market casino and the economic well being for J6P don't correlate much. Just buy when VIX goes parabolic and the talking heads tell you the world is coming to an end. Be very fearful when the waters are calm and there isn't a worry in the world like the puppet masters wanted us to believe only a couple of months ago..

Oops. Looks like we're sinking. I've been warning for almost a year now that we'd see the beginning of a recession in the first half of 2012 and that everyone should position their portfolio for such an outcome. I personally made sure to invest defensively in DBLTX and PTTRX anticipating a stock market sell off and eventually another QE that would see the Fed inflate their balance sheet with more mortgage securities. So far, those calls have been prescient despite the derision on these threads.

They are talking double dip........third year in a row.

My my triple and double inverse ETF hedges (UVXY, FAZ, and TVIX) had a great day also.
