Going against the prevailing trend seems sooooo hard to do. Only way to get a bounce these days is if Boom or Timmy says something nice in front of CONgress. Otherwise just slip slidin' away. I'm on the lookout for temp sector bottoms. We either continue sliding down through earnings or maybe we catch a reprieve and get a little rise into earnings. Any shorter term plays, I don't seem to be in the right mind set to do that lately.
I looked over (CitiFx)the metals and currencies, and earl to a lesser extent. Elsewhere I see $ going into money market funds and such. Said why not? Go to The Lion and make some paper trades for them to go higher. Or yeah, like OG said just to watch them for a turn.
Regarding the flight to Treas. paper as a safety. Guy said on cnbc this morn, "Issue debt to fix the financial system is one thing, to fund a welfare state is another." So I think the T paper has lost a little bit of luster.
