Crazy stuff.

Anyone read Roubini's latest today?

"At this point severe damage is done and one cannot rule out a systemic collapse and a global depression. It will take a significant change in leadership of economic policy and very radical, coordinated policy actions among all advanced and emerging market economies to avoid this economic and financial disaster."

/me *all cash and loving it*

I'm up 14% in 2 weeks on my US CASH and that doesn't even count the interest. Woot! The only stocks I have a 4 shares of AAPL I bought at some stupid price.

Oh, and my October AAPL $200 call options.

Come-on baby! You can doo it! Got a whole week and a day left to make a breakout and sail past $200.

I didn't want that $5000 anyway.

Everyone is saying today we could hit the circuit breakers. That being said, we will probably end up then. Asian/foreign markets were destroyed over the last 24 hours. Japan was obliterated.
