CKFR and XCIT SHORTS What do you think of Check Free and Excite as shorts?. 7828 on the Dow is the current support level. Dow closed Friday at 7838. If support level is broken at close Monday or Tuesday most major securities firms will initiate strong sell programs. MU and MUEI reports earnings after the bell Monday. If either one or both of these companies miss their lowered earnings estimates, it could be a hex for tech. stocks. Also, on Tuesday Japan will announce the ruling party's economic bailout program. If not well recieved by Japan and the world this could catastrophic for the U.S. markets. South Korean and Indonesian turmoil do not help with the overall Asian market confidence. Watch out if you are long next week. Could be a very good week for the shorts. Jeff P.S. I made great money trading in and out of INTU puts last week
