First off, the media events went swimmingly yesterday. Hope you tuned in to the radio show. The dinner show was also top notch. Details to follow of course at a later date.
So the economic numbers weren't "so bad" this morning. As my man John Crudele from the NY Post says, "Who really cares what the numbers are that come out of Washington these days? They can practically make anything up." So the unemployment rate stayed the same. La dee frikkin' da. But you know what? The stock markets are going up, up, up. And our short positions in SPY (the S&P 500) and QQQQ (the Nasdaq) are getting beat up. The charts haven't said to cover the positions yet, but it looks like on Monday we will. Bummer. Of course we'll keep you abreast of what we are doing.
As you may know, I am traveling until next Wednesday evening on a couple of business matters. One of which of course is the "Monkey Business McMansion fact finding tour". I will be reporting my findings diligently here on this blog. So stay tuned. Please have a wonderful and happy weekend, and just think, your 401k holdings are doing a bit better! So, please do your best to prop up your local economy!
