  1. Since I believe interest rates will be on the rise again soon, I have taken on a long position in $TBT, the bond ultrashort ETF.
  2. Check out how my multi-month prediction made in March panned out - http://bit.ly/DCTK1
  3. I am covering my $GLD short at a profit and entering a large long position on $USO with a stop at 31.85
  4. I've been bearish on gold $GLD for a while (to the chagrin of those belonging to the Church of Precious Metals), and it's got plenty to go.
  5. Are stock market bears evil? http://tr.im/r6b2
  6. MoneyGram ($MGI) has just broken out of a really great base.
  7. The SEC's obsession with small fry (as opposed to the Madoffs of the world) - http://tr.im/q46b
  8. Former IBM CEO/Chairman Gerstner proposes traders pay an 80% tax on their short-term gains. http://tr.im/pQY9
  9. Re-entering $USO short at current levels with a stop at 39.28
  10. The breakout has failed for the bulls, and 880 on the $SPX seems inevitable at this point. A failure at 880 would take us to 800.
  11. The commodity ETF $DBC looks good at these levels. I've set my stop price at $22.88
  12. $GLD is very shortable at these levels, with a stop at $93. $USO also looks very attractive on the short side.
  13. Very interesting article on the Bankrupt American Expire - http://tr.im/oBnF
  14. Buying $TLT looks like a good way to take advantage of a bounce higher in government paper.
  15. Although I'm not too crazy about its low volume, I bought $SDP on Friday to take advantage of the anticipated decline in utility stocks.
  16. $DTG looks like an interesting short at these levels. It has climbed 1500% in just three months. I'm going to use $10 as my stop price.
  17. The retail ETF $RTH looks better than ever as a short. Stop price is 80.78. I've doubled my put position on this one today.
  18. I am closing out my TBT position after a solid 4.66% gain. Bought @ 52.43 and sold at 54.90. Energies are where it's at now.
  19. The upside breakout in EUR/USD is amazing. Going long $DBC looks better than ever!
  20. Worst Case Scenario - ten fascinating predictions about the economy - well worth the read! http://tr.im/lrKH
