My FF for Q1,Q2 09

Specific stocks in mid caps will likely do better. So the plays are to make handsome amounts of money with lessor risk for next 6 months: ETF's on SP 500 - 2x and QLD ETF's on Midcaps Gold stocks - select Gold Oil energy stocks - select short dollar After that. Sell in May- go away. economy will look better by year-end, not great, but better and thus the market will have once again gotten way ahead of itself in a famous bear market rally. Consumers will have "saved" or paid down debt for a whole 6 or 7 months before they can't stand it anymore and resort to those old bad habits of buying mucho lots of stuff again. Gasoline prices will remain modest but climbing, despite mid east tensions and some really stoopid wars popping up. (again) Obamamania will catch some fire and then reality will settle back in towards the middle to end of next year.

PS. and we will have re-fi mania which will make people feel "richer" despite re-extending mortgages longer. So again, between the temporal medicine of low gas prices, re-fi's, bloated inventory from retailers having to do massive discounts, and some Obamamania shoudl provide a good spark to re-ignite some decent spending.

is that REALLY you, nb? i think it must be an imposter! let's see you dance; then i will know.
