MORNING MOVES


Markets are off thier lows- after opening limit down on the futures but I am in no rush to buy as this picture has run before many times- we rally too early in the day and back down we go.


Weakest sectors- emerging markets, gaming, oils, shipping and brokers.


NYSE- 2540 net losers;

NAZ- 1960 net losers;

NDX- 2 GREEN;

OEX- 0 GREEN;


VIX- up only 17% at 79;


Crude and gold lower;


No rush to buy this market- IMVHO- one can scale in but closing at/near the lows today would not surprise me.


And for the longer term - no reason to try and catch a/the low-
Finally, if you feel like being nostalgic- check out this video.

Good analysis. I think the Hedge Funds that have to sell stocks are laying
low to get a better price before they lower the boom.
It's interesting to watch, but I wont fall into their trap. Might nibble if there is that stealth 3pm rally & sell before the close. IMHO

Funds have to finish their year-end selling in October, right?

Every sector is weak. Cramer is wrong. There's not always a bull market somewhere.

Except in negatively correlated ETFs, I guess...
