Yee-haw!
We love the smell of pullback in the morning. It smells like – victory! After extensively reviewing our bearish positions in this week’s wrap up and after calling for cashing out our bull plays last week and after taking a whole bunch of short positions – I would have been in a very bad mood this morning had we gone up 150-points instead of down so forgive me for being pleased with myself.
Although we called the stick-save at Friday’s close, even when I predicted it at 12:40 I said that: “getting back to there would be fake, fake, fake and failing there would be very bearish going into the weekend.” In my closing Alert to Members at 4:04 I said: “12:42 targets were: Dow 9,350, S&P 1,005, Nas 1,990,NYSE 6,540 andRUT 570.We got 9,321, 1,004, 1,985, 6,537 and 564 so let’s hear it for the 5% rule and Mr. Stick, who’s program is playing our tune. This was, of course fake, fake, fake, so we still expect our sell-off next week.” See, this stuff isn’t too hard to follow – targets set at 12:42, targets failed at the close, stay short into the weekend…
Speaking of targets, our first downside targets, which we went over in last Wednesday morning’s post, should be tested this morning at Dow 9,100, S&P 980, Nasdaq 1,950, NYSE 6,400 and Russell 550. As that post was an extensive discussion of levels and ranges we expect and is still fresh, I won’t get back into into it here other than to say how mean you are for not using THIS LINK to get a free trial of the PSW REPORT (just 2 weeks left on summer offer) and then using THIS LINK to refer2 friends and lock in your own discounts. We’re starting a new $100,000 Portfolio this weekend and only members will get those trade live and I’ll also be continuing the $5,000 portfolio and it’s a great time to start following now that we are back to cash there.
While we are nowhere near as bullish as Cramer (seen here in Thursday making fun of us for being too cautious), we are also not perma-bears. A nice sell-off here is not only long overdue but it’s also healthy and, if we hold 80% of the move up since March, we’re going to be thrilled to go long with a brand new Buy List. Our last set of buys,which were…
