Getting out of yesterday's trade, Thurs., Oct. 20, 2005, 3:17 PM

I happened to miss four hours of trading yesterday and got myself into a big hole. After I returned at three pm, the market even turned worse as the Gnomes piled on. So much for telling them what I was about to do.

So today, without saying much, I've been getting back at them.

I tell you; I am very serious about this! :-)

Some of those Gnomes had better understand just who they've taken on here.

Dow down "114 pts!

Yep. It blew past all my shorts and I stayed put. Now they are all "green" again. What a difference a day makes. (Hmm. I should probably learn that lesson for Gold too.)

Bill,

What the heck is going on????? What does your crystal ball say about the XLF? I am confused......it is a quite a conundrum.
