Closing Comments

Finally, this week is over.

I lost 1.7% over the last 5 business day, by bumbling around-- waiting for the fucking dip buyers to get the hell out of my way. It seems, although I could be wrong, those bastards have gone away-- fearing the economic slowdown may be "real" and that Cramer really is crazy for being a "Nasdaq Guy."

Earlier this week, I stated, on this time consuming blog, that I would probably cover my shorts and start buying stock. Well, I did buy ADBE and a few other stocks. But, I changed my mind with regards to covering my shorts.

I thought about it for awhile and remembered all the times I felt wrong about the market-- when in fact I wasn't. I was just a bit early.

Bottom line: I am sticking to my guns on betting the market will swan dive, effectively putting the God foresaken dip buyers on a pike.

As for the makets: Significant losses were found in Steal, Networker and Oil stocks.

Strength was found in Homebuilder, Gold and Retail stocks.

NOTE: MSCC warned after the close. WTF!

What kind of company warns after the close Friday?

Answer: A company who's stock is going down.

FACT, BRVO, BYBI, FZN, PZZI, DEVC, HOV, BMHC, NVR, SPF, TPGI, AH, CVTI, CHNR, IOC, EDNE, CNR, HSR, AOOR, HOKU, COGL, PDLI, BVX, ELN, NTMD, HYTM, APT, PCLN, VGZ, ANSW, QPSA, LOOK, MAMA, CLWT, CTDC, CBA, ANCC, TIII, APAT, MRVC, EGHT, DIGL, OCNW, OPTC, BKRS, PIR, NKE, BKS, TVIA, CTCH, CRYP, INTT, BITS, PALM, SYNA, AXTI, STEC, TWTC, LCCI, TU, XFN, HCO, FPU, CVLT, RVBD, HUGH, TALK, OCCX, DYAX, NYMX, CMED, COGN, STAA, TRT, IW, HH, HDY, VNX, MDV, XNR, GCO, TRB, NYX, HMY, WNI, LFC, WLM, POS and WMG.

Have a great weekend Broker
 
Sell Rosh Hashana and buy Yom Kippur! Something like that... cheers!
 
It's strange that MSCC dropped big yesterday and 2 ANALists downgraded it today. Maybe the news were out somehow? I shorted it at the break-down today but was a bit unsure thinking it came down too much already. HA!
 
Nice job on the MSCC call.

I had reserved shared of AATI yesterday and didn't pull the trigger on the short, down 25% today.

Damn. Good times.

Take a look at my short list a few posts ago. Its there.
 
That AATI's chart is surely beautiful. I filter out stocks under $15. Maybe I should rethink it.
