    Same here -- I used to watch your polls thinking that the majority is wrong. Recently I find that the reverse is true.

    I also used to think that the same daily pattern cannot persist, such as a 2:30pm - 4:00pm sell-off daily. Now I find that it can keep persisting.

  3. After a couple's fight,

    There is typically a happy date.

    Tonight is the republican/dem fight!

    Will tomorrow be the deal date?

    i hope they won't make a very ugly child.


    is anybody short volatility into the debt decision? what's your strategy/instrument of choice?

    I have some VXX bear call spreads (Aug Expiration)

    regarding the question whether one could use ET poll to his advantage, what sort of bet would (or would not ) one place right here?

    the majority goes for 3% and i think there is a good chance they are wrong.

    any other takes on the poll? who believes the majority is correct? any good model predictions that match a particular vote?

  9. The 'Debt Cieling' won't be lifted.

    The markets are rallying on hope and faith.

    We've learnt nothing from the last few years.

    Human beings are idiots.
