good call, SB. I am not short, but sold most of my remaining longs. Will be glad to reenter at higher price levels, if seen in the future...sell high, buy higher strategy.

If you want to talk about DJIA, why not start a thread. I'm a Nasdaq short-seller here do not have the slightest interest in what's going on with the Dow...

As long as SOX stays under 487 we are good to go. QID did test the 49.50 I expected and I entered today at 49.54.
