Quotable
We became merchants of the buzz, getting long stocks and then schmoozing with analysts about what we saw and heard that was positive. Or we would get short stocks and talk to the analysts about the negatives. We would work to get upgrades or downgrades because we knew, cynically, that Wall Street was simply a promotion machine. We recognized that analysts existed to promote stocks, typically the stocks their companies brought public, in order to get those stocks higher.

Nice,
My model issued a BUY signal late on Friday and with the sell off today I’ll be rotating more money back in.

Well, today’s action was worse for me, and better for the S&P 500, than I had expected it would be based on the market action overnight.

This mess is almost over, especially after the bailout of Bear Stearns.

Painful couple of days for me, since I’m loaded on commodities at the moment. Ouch!
I think it’ll be a few days or weeks before the real trends emerge from the bottoming (assuming it’s a bottoming, which I think it is). The patterns of sectors hitting and missing the last few days makes me think some of it is forced covering and longs profit-taking.
