It's better to do a few things well...

I know it seems like I am all SDTH right now. I have lots of other ideas of course as well but as I mentioned I am very busy right now and I'd rather know what I know well rather than put up lots of posts on things I haven't had time to look at very recently.

Did you see that SDTH broke out...? Nice 5% pop today!!!

A few quick other notes:
Short instruments starting to look very cheap. The closer the dow gets to 13,000 , the SP around 1400, etc. the better these instruments start to look. TWM (personal favorite), QID too cheap, MZZ is also a good vehicle.

Of course the retail numbers tomorrow are HUGE as well as earnings this week and "never step in front of a bus" applies here... wait til after it reports for any heavy position perhaps... a neutral stance makes a lot sense but the shorts are very much on my radar...

JASO (already reported), LDK, other solars to watch this week. I will be assembling an industry analysis post on solars when I have a chance. Also perhaps tonight if I have time I will post the most important earnings and events to watch in this very significant week. Back to work fellas...

Oh... and I did buy some CMED at 37.60. This remains one of top ten overall long term (i.e 5 -10 years) stock picks. In this market I may not hold it that long.. at this price it's worth it to get in some even now this week in my opinion... they report in early May...

Best,
Jon
