The inside word is that we should see a BIG boost next week!

I like your thinking hpark, I'll keep with the optimism

Lets see Not a bad day at all. We were down -500 made back 400points. If AAPL does has something new and different I think it'll lead the tech sector up on Tuesday.

Don't get too excited. An 800 point rally in about 30 minutes is more bearish than bullish.

^ People trade with their dicks. Don't bother telling people it could take a year or more to make even 5% on the S&P. They aren't listening.

That said, I'm putting some of the cash I have on the sidelines to work. I got my S&P 900 level and we bounced. That was what I was looking for. Up or down from here I don't know but I do know that long term 900 is the on-track for a well priced market.

FYI it will take the market to double to recover the 50% it lost.

This was people cashing out of their short positions for the long weekend which will have several big meetings between IMF and G7 central bankers. Tues. could be more of the same.

If you were short this was a monster week. Take some profits and sleep restfully for 3 days.
