I consider myself deeply in a hole because I didn’t short homebuilders and didn’t short Countrywide. Other than that I’m OK.
BTW there’s talk about emergency Fed meeting going on right now and a possibility of either a sharply lower opening or an emergency rate cut before market open tomorrow.

January 15, 2008 at 6:50 PM #136510drunkleParticipantdow dipped below 12500 today, last time it touched 12.5, it shot back up. computerized trades probably? broke the floor today?
after hours, it’s lower, but not omfgiddhutbap. they’ve been rumoring about an emergency cut all day as well. defribulate the ol stock market a little? or tomorrow’s jp morgan and merrill numbers are going to be stupid ugly?

With all due respect to people shorting the markets. I do hope we get a short term rebound. I normally don't wish for this, but 2008 hasn't been a terribly great start to begin with in general, and any thing going in the right direction would break this apparent sh!tstorm I seem to be caught in.
It's only been 15days into the month and so far my accomplishments have been…
1)Both my wife and I have been sick with the same lung infection
2)Got into another dispute with a neighbor, yet managed to get citecd by my HOA for some bullsh!t thing. Not a really big deal.
3)Managed to close the garage door on my wife's car (forgetting Ileft the hatch open) doh!
4)Got stopped by CHP..twice..by the same officer.. ..though both times were let of with warnings…
5)Dropped a bottle of bleach on a carpet without realizing it was there until a few days later.
6)Fell off a ladder while trying to remove christmas lights (note to self, trying to reposition the ladder while still on it is a d*mbass move, especially with a phenomena called "gravity")
7) Going through a company reorg….again……
8) Had a nice winter storm that sort of flooded a few places where the outdoor drain didn't really work.
Oh, yeah, and the markets are really down. Almost forgot about that.
Ironically, my bitter meter was still reading a 2, though it's starting to share a tad bit of "3" after closing the garage door on my wife's car..though the the good news was, it was her car, and not mine π
When the sh!t snows, it really snows. And lately, I feel like staying in bed and not crawling out until…2009…. Lol…Again, that's why I don't take things that seriously.
