There are a lot of good buys out there to be scooped up, if they can get over the irrational emotionalism. Tood bad that so many of the traders are so young and ruled by pure emotion.

“Now all that’s needed is some action on the Korean peninsula, Hezebellah rockets into Israel and
a small fleet of Iranian gunboats heading for an oil tanker.”

I don’t think triple witching is today. I think it’s in June.

Late June or early July. That’s when California starts bubbling over.

All they need is Japan to default on the debts. That alone will finish off the global economy as unlike Greece there is no Germany to bail them out.

Triple witching is the 3rd Friday of every third month.

That's when a whole lot of options expire. Next one will be 3rd Friday in June.

I quit Rodeo 42 years ago when a bull taught me I was no bull rider.

Why do I feel I am still strapped to the back of a bucking bull or bronc!
