Twas the night before Christmas and throughout Wall Street,
traders shared the same vision,
no more fighting with animals that can stand on two feet.

Dreams of bulls dancing in their head,
I hope futures are up when I get out of bed.
They say this rally belongs to Saint Nick,
stocks better breakout, or it’ll be over quick.

All of this clutter is messing up my chart,
Another loss would just break my heart.
Is it up we go or one more big rout?
Oh man, my IBM just got stopped out!

Thank goodness 2011 will be over before long,
so many money managers had it dead wrong.
For the President it was year three,
history said higher and higher is all it could be.

While Bill Gross says the situation in Europe is dire,
Maria Bartiromo claims stocks should go higher.
How do we know which one to choose?
Get it wrong and your portfolio is sure to lose.

Analysts say 2012 earnings will be strong,
that’s why my positions are 100% long.
Management better guide higher when they report,
or I’ll wish I was 100% short.

Stick with us as next year’s theme is sure to unfold,
if not, well, there is always gold.
Top Equity has just one last Christmas wish for you my friend,
that next year you make money from beginning to end!

Happy Holidays from all of us at Top Equity News.
