Futures are up. World markets are up. How can your 'secret' be true?

Still around here even with the time machine? May be you just want to watch us suffer. The only group of people who have the time machine are the Goldman Sach. They made more money than any one.

And for some reason, their #1 hedgefund with about 10 bil in assets? is strangely short the US markets and US bonds... but long japan stocks..last time I heard about it (back in december?) they were down about 10% with the recent rise in markets.

Ofcourse, Goldman has been issuing negative outlook on semis-techs. They did this twice: once in early december, then again in early january. Both times, Qs took a crapper. They warned on AMD (which came out to be true), and said "OMG motherboard stockpiles are going to da moon!".

So.. take that info with a grain of salt, because Qs are higher since they've issued that. Maybe they lied to get cheap inventory?

Lets see what the mkt thinks :sweatingbullets:

I've never tested it but over the past 10 to 15 years I've always had problems with my longs on Tuesdays after a Monday trading holiday if the previous two trading days (Thursday and Friday) were strong. So that's why I am wary about tomorrow and why you may just be right. Still, since I hold 10 long equity positions would obviously prefer to see an up day. If your prediction does prove true, hoping that Intel's earnings and guidance after the close juice the tech sector for Wednesday. Can't say I agree with your strategy of scaling in shorts as the market rises (adding to losers) anymore than scaling in longs as the market declines (adding to losers) but to each their own in this game as everyone has to do their own thing.
Good luck in your trade.
