- It's Thanksgiving week, so being a contrarian this week might be tough. It'd be like being a contrarian on Thanksgiving day and betting on egg salad sandwiches instead of a turkey. Everyone on the planet knows that this is a bang-up gung-ho to-the-moon week for stocks. The bulls are running and volume should be thinner than usual as the week progresses. The market could surprise everyone and do something different, of course.
- Ohio State beats Michigan on saturday in a pretty exciting game. Michigan remains #2 in the BCS bowl, but don't bet on a rematch just yet. USC still has two games. One against Notre Dame and the other against UCLA. If USC wins those two, they might propel to #2 setting up a showdown with Ohio St. for all the marbles.
- "Stupid Investment of the Week" honors from CBS Marketwatch. The Blue Fund, a fund for Democrats that invests in companies that support Democrats. Something like that. Seems silly to me. Hat tip to The Duck Stream.
- Save the cheerleader. Save the world. Fall break finale for Heroes tonight!
- DOW finished down, but Nasdaq finished up. I'm still thinking turkey wins over egg salad sandwiches for thursday dinner, though.
- I didn't even know there was a Playboy reality series on E! TV. 3rd season? Where the heck have I been? (I knew about the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders reality show, but haven't watched it.) I hope Netflix has the series on DVD. Something to watch during halftimes of the bowlgames-named-after-autoparts-companies.
