Who You Gonna Call?

  • Malevolent ghosts stealing your chickens and torturing you in the night? Who you gonna call? Indian cops called to investigate ghosts. I hate chicken-stealin' ghosts.  They're the worst kind of ghosts, IMHO.  Pretty easy to spot, though.  Just look for the chicken floating mid-air.  There's your ghost right there.
  • Hey, I like the way the market finished today.  Nothin' spooky about that.
  • Was your father a thief? Because he stole the stars from the sky and put them in your eyes.  Top 10 pick-up lines.  Nah, put me down for Friends' Joey:  How you doin'?

  • I get tired of reading the negative politcal sites.  Here comes Bush this morning with some upbeat economic numbers, and some liberal blogs are trashing him.  I think these folks would come back from Disneyland, and instead of telling you what they liked, they'd list everything wrong with the theme park.  These Angry folks are convinced we're in the "worst economy since Hoover" (John Kerry 2004), and I think they're way out in deep right field.  They don't have a clue.  They're full of beans.  This economy is pretty darn good.
  • Profunds has some negatively-correlated ETFs now.  You can short by buying an ETF.   Handy for retirement accounts, where you can't short.  Barry Ritholz dipped his toe in these and has some thoughts.
  • Quitin' time.  Load up the bus and take 'em home!
