Short the phonebook again....

Sold my GDX and UGL for a nice profit... (gold miners and double long gold)

Bought large positions in SRS, SKF... smaller in FAZ

Lets see if they can crush me again.

  1. What is your target here, because I'm less convinced now that we're going to crash below 800 as I used to be, with commodities ramping so much.

  2. I didnt know you traded or read this Jennifer...

    The dollar crash is very troubling for the short equities thesis, I agree with you on that.

    I already got stopped out of some of my shorts and the rest will be stopped out with any strength next week. I was out of town Thursday and Friday so I had to just set my stops and not watch it.

    If the dollar keeps losing 1-2% every day it is hard to short things!

    Im watching the dollar.. .back in December it traded down to 79-78.5. Currently it is 79.2. If the dollar breaks its December low its probably at least testing its all time low at 72 and I don't think you want to be short if the dollar keeps crashing.
