ParticipantSomehow, someway, I also have the instinct that this rally has *something* behind it that could push it above the 1,000 mark.
Thanks for educating me on the PPT! I had to go read up on what the hell that is, and feeling a bit foolish for not having known of its existence.

ParticipantDitto that this is one of the BEST off-topic threads. I’m quite impressed about how much all you Piggington members know about wine. I certainly learned a lot reading this thread.
This weekend I even spend 20 minutes and compiled all posts in this thread into an Excel spreadsheet of Wine Tips…something I can print and take to Costco.

Participant1070?
Naw, I think it will go to precisly 1068.5 and then stall.

I’m joking. I hope you’re right. You could be right. The only instinct I’m feeling is that this current fool’s rally will go “substantially” above 900. We are already at 916.
So far the rally has been good to me. My oil stocks (BP, COP, MRO, PBR, UCO) are up 10% to 20% in less than seven days. (makes me wonder if I should dump ’em)
My Wells Fargo is up 27% since purchase on 11/20/08. My 2X gold ETF is up 10% in a few days.
I bought SDS at S&P500=900, so that one I’m already losing money on…as the S&P500 has moved up to 916.
However, I’m still about 60% cash. I’m keeping lots off the table for now, waiting to see if opportunities come that I haven’t anticipated.

ParticipantI’ll post a recommendation on a beer, but make it a very specific one, in the category of Hefeweizen or Weissbier.
I strongly recommend the Franziskaner Hefe-Weissbier.
My wife and I have done our share of hut-to-hut moutain hiking in Germany, Austria, Switzerland. The best part is those huts usually have good cold Weissbier. So I’ve had my share of good European Weissbier!
I found this is one of the best tasting Weissbiers conveniently available in certain CA markets (Try Whole Foods)
http://www.franziskaner-weissbier.com/
Of course, Weissbier is best served cold on a hot summer day. Some like it with the lemon wedge; others do NOT. Whatever the case, Weissbier is NOT a beer for a cold day.
Also, if you like your Weissbier w/a lemon, be sure to add the lemon AFTER you poor; otherwise, the acidity of the lemon will prevent a good head from forming on your Weissbier .
There are those who claim that Paulaner is better, but I do not agree. It is good, but not as good as Franziskaner.
I have NOT found ANY American brewery that has a good authentic German style Weissbier, and I’ve done plenty of searching.
Examples of some widely available (in CA), but really horrible “Hefeweizen”:
Gordon Biersch Hefeweizen
Pyramid Hefeweizen
Widmer Brothers Hefeweizenstockstradr
