Full disclosure: My portfolio is 57% short. This is huge since I never tend to hold any significant outright short positions.
I have a target of 1610 on the SnP before lower prices. The market always seems to go just that little bit further than what most people think. I hope your short position works out for you.
ah ... this is like the hundredth post here on ET that predicts some kind of a crash in the near future
Counter trend trading....SMART?! Now we know your not really Paul Tudor Jones.....time to change your name!
If you've got sound reasons for taking such a position, watch out; sound reasoning usually leaves you screwed. If it's just a crazy hunch you'll probably score.
Crash where....ohh you are referring to sub-prime mortgage rates and default bills as well as to housing market. OK.
