yea it will be interesting to see how the Europeans sort this mess out. I think finally they are getting the message that they have to take decisive actions. The micky mouse game with the market for 18 months is not working. And now time is not on their side so they have to kick the can down the road and wait for growth to pick up next year.

If there is one thing we have learned from 2008 is that government intervention works. Bank debt & deposit guarantee, TARP, TALF, QE, unlimited funding facility for money market and a whole bunch of other measures saved us from depression. Europe must do the same. I know the public is against bailouts, but what is right is not always popular.

Glad I sold my SLF.TO shares last week and broke even. Down 8% thanks to upcoming quarterly loss of $600+ million.

Should be a spike in AAPL tomorrow? Usually it spikes before their quarterly report

IBM is down too despite meeting targets.

LOL Disclaimer again?

I think playing Apple tmw will be definitely be tricky, not only given the recent events (Jobs/Cook/4S) but the market there'll be GS and BAC reporting tomorrow in the morning. A gamble play on weekly puts wouldn't be bad, or even as as a hedge.

i know im gonna get bashed for this,,,

but those guys on OptionsAction on CNBC are very good at putting on trades.. i would suggest ppl here have a look see since their episodes are podcasted..

more than not, they're trades reflect a stock movement pretty dang accurately

no disclaimer from me on this one, they have one themselves on the episodes.. LOL

Apple might pull an IBM since the stock ran up so much already.

BTW, I've been meaning to look into that Options Action show but I never caught on. I should check it out.

Bought FAZ this morning after it went down about 8%. I am hoping it will turn around Wednesday.
