TGIF!

  • Well, took today off and went... Fishing!  WHAT?  I haven't been in years.  Didn't catch anything.  Which is probably for the best. 
  • As I type the market is playing out options expiration much as one would expect.  Flatlining...  I remain 100% long in real money, and no paper trades in either the Long-Short portfolio or Black Box Jr.
  • China:  Gymnast's age based on Chinese calendar.
  • Now EVERYONE is talking about the dollar rally.  And of course, EVERYONE says they called it, too.  Kind of the nature of the biz.  Watching CNBC and this guy (whoever doesn't matter) says "Just like we said months ago..."  Yeah, right.  
  • Recession knock-knock-knocking on Europe's door.  They've actually had one quarter of negative GDP so far.  Unlike us, the US.
  • California State Fair opens today.  Kind of the same thing year after year, but if you live in Sacramento it's kind of the thing to do.  At least once...
