FED CUTS 1/4 point ..... DIP logic #1 plays out.

HELICOPTER BEN crashes into the EAST RIVER! .... taking "some" of the DIPfolio with it ... fuck!!!

good thing we went to 30% CASH....and also sold some holdings before the cut/crash...monday was green and early Tuesday was green, ... and right before the FED announced you saw the spike... our DIP logic was spot on...

1) if Market goes up Monday and early Tuesday, we only get a 1/4 point cut ... market goes to shit. (SELL BEFORE CUT)

Sunday, December 9, 2007

The DIPfolio goes to 30% CA$H before RATE CUT TUESDAY!

Last cut we didn't have enough reserves to make the right moves, this time we will be ready.

The Power of CASH!!! .... ..... ... we feel you Johnny!

Here is our game plan for the CUT.

1) if Market goes up Monday and early Tuesday, we only get a 1/4 point cut ... market goes to shit. (SELL BEFORE CUT)

2) if Market sells off BIG Monday and Tuesday, letting BIG BEN know that we mean business, ... we get 1/2 point cut on Tuesday and we're off to the races! (BUY BEFORE CUT)

3) if Market is flat Monday and Tuesday, we get 1/4 point and market trends slightly lower due to credit/housing debacle. (HOLD and BUY ON THE DIP)
