Hi Ed, Personally, I'm gonna wait till next week or after, I'm keeping an eye on earnings estimates from many big name companies to allow market sentiment determine the direction of the stock, short term. As someone correctly said a couple of posts ago, it is about 2 more weeks till triple witching expiration. Couple that with Q1 earnings in 4-6 weeks, for many companies, and the scenario sounds very volatile, and that is not even including news from SEA markets. Investors should do what they feel comfortable with, if you think the potential returns meet your investment goals (mid-term) this could be an opportunity to start looking to get in. Very cautious, waiting patiently and loaded for BEAR! Just my opinion, BB
