Anyone else counting how many times CNBC has said "Buffett" this morning?

 

Based on my sampling they're due to hit 15,000 before the market opens.

Lloyd Blankfein stubs a toe this morning in his kitchen

 

We are not sure which toe, but we believe it's the little one on the end, not the big toe

For baseball attendance wonks only.

Marlins had 24,500 on hand last night in their fabulous new and fabulously inaccessible ballpark. Loria will start dumping salary any day now.

Covered my NQ early this morning at 2705.75 when it tagged the middle downtrend line.

Took a -10.50 lost on the trade (short from 2687 & 2703).

 

I'll might take another short stab if we test the top of the down channel again with a stop above yesterday's highs.

 

Trade safe.

 

Currently flat.

Gold waiting for another round of QE from someone...

 

We are getting the dreaded death cross which usually means a quick dip follow by a monster rally to test the crossing.
