I Seem To Be Experiencing A Correction

Welcome back and how I did miss you all while I was away. My 9th floor office had that cold air of abandon wafting through it for the better part of forty-five minutes, before the warmth of the hearth drove it out.

The recent days have brought a correction in my positions, with BAS diving back below $10, HCLP testing $30, and some others also wallowing. It is hard for me to read too much into this, at the moment. The EURUSD is running back to test 1.10 and bonds are rallying again. At hand is the question of whether we are to retest the lows of the damage or will find support.

But for me this question is superficial in a sense. BAS in particular was up a great sum and so though we have corrected significantly, it’s nothing I wouldn’t expect from a distressed asset. My positions are derived from non-technical details mostly so while it’s difficult to watch this sort of thing play out, it’s not material.

The summer months are upon us now.
