My gut says w/in days, but I am short stocks not the mkt. I can't imagine this mkt moving higher before a 3 day weekend. Additionally, Hong Kong and China banned short selling last night. There are MANY hedge funds that are short Hing Kong and long the US. They got shredded last night as they were forced to cover. More than likely they will be liquidating holdings here for margin calls on those shorts. The world is getting uglier all the time.

Beeble,

You're scaring me. I also want to get some puts but after watching you get your clock cleaned with EVI (sorry to bring it up) I am scared to be on the same side of the fence! Has your luck changed?
