Dow to 40k

 

Market ends week up 4%.  Only 370% more to hit the 40,000 mark.  Why not?  Haha.  You realize, I am kidding right?  I think what’s been bothering me lately is the thought that the VIX looks it will be heading to the 20s.  Hmmmm.  I’m not too sure about that.  We did hit a medium term short-sale trigger point (VIX <34) that I’ve been watching, so I did beging to scale in.  Nothing great, just across a few sectors… fertz (TNH), online retail (OSTK), and re-entered airlines (ZNH). 

Still holding the bear-killing coffee stock… GMCR.  We hit my short term 80 target today, and I’m going to raise it to 82.  After 82 I will scale out, with next sell >85 or <78.  I think people will start thinking “triple digits” on GMCR and that’s when the profit-taking starts.  Meanwhile, GMCR’s little brother, PEET looks like it’s trying to break out of 30.  If it cannot within the next few days, I will short PEET as a hedge to GMCR longs.  Just a little idea for yah.

Have a good weekend.  Special shout-out to The PPT Traders for slapping the market up side the head, Rafer Alston style!
