DAZED & CONFUSED, ZEPPELIN, & The STOCK MARKET
Look out the window and see what is real?
This "rate cut hype" has us a bit DAZED AND CONFUSED ...did that 300 point dip really punish the easy money monkeys? ... a half day of pain and panic? a month of RED? you know we are FOREVER BULLS, but?!@? another DIP is coming!!! Word on the street is 100% chance of another rate cut, thats not much room for error...can the fed disappoint?
Lets have some fun until then...BUY ON THE DIP!

CRAMER's 1,000 point DIP THEORY!?!
If you are watching the show you just heard JIM explain the reasons behind what would have been "the 1,000 point dip" today....(we'll send a link once available)
Yesterday when we broke our target of 12,700 we posted "we're not convinced" ...then at 12,500ish on the 300point plus dip ... we posted "still going lower....new target 12,000....the world is over....you could sell everything today .... then buy back lower next week or even next month" ....and when it rebounded and went green for the day, we got even more worried..."Don't believe the "green" hype....sure its nice to come back from 300pts down...but we need to "end" lower...today was a tease, a test, a glimpse of whats to come."
BE RIGHT & LOSE MONEY ....or....BE WRONG & MAKE MONEY ?
p.s. but don't forget one of our favorites ... "opportunity cost" ... had we had the 1,000 dip it would have been quite the buying opportunity ... eh?
p.s.s. yes, we just said ... "had we had"

The 3pm POWER HOUR!
BOTD posted about the 12,700 level...and as usual we were a bit off, but had the right idea ...the dow broke 12,600 and hit a low of 12,517.94 .... then rallied back 250pts in the last hour...POWER HOUR!
Don't believe the "green" hype....sure its nice to come back from 300pts down...but we need to "end" lower...today was a tease, a test, a glimpse of whats to come.
HOLD your stocks, HOLD your cash
...then BUY ON THE DIP!
12,700 breaks down, twice!
DJIA breaks 12,700....but we're not convinced
NOT THERE YET....
(DJIND: Dow Jones GlobalIndexes)

A Healthier OPTION ....cheaper today! & UNH upgrades, more to come!
UnitedHealth Group Upped To Neutral From Sell At Goldman
>UNH Aug 9, 2007 05:48:42 (ET)
DOW JONES NEWSWIRES
Goldman Sachs upgraded health insurer UnitedHealth Group Inc. (UNH) to neutral from sell to reflect current valuation and its expectation of improved profitability in commercial trends during the second half of 2007.
The broker told clients it feels optimistic the insurer will begin to "turn the corner" on execution and customer service issues now that the most disruptive phase of its merger integration with PacifiCare Health are behind it.
p.s. WHO LOVES HK?

Lets go fishing! ... Marlin (MRLN) ...18.20 -0.29 (-1.57%)
MARLIN BUSINESS SERVICES CORP
(MRLN: NASDAQ)
18.20
-0.29 (-1.57%)
52-week low = $18.15
Marlin ..."the fish"...an Equipment Finance Company loans money to small businesses in the US...In this market we see tightening conventional lender guidelines, increased credit card usage, and strick lenghty bank loan processes, business owners need alternate places to borrow funds...Marlin is a solution. And with no mortgage or housing exposure...their loans are backed with asset based collateral...and we know they don't buy "shitty paper", more commonly refered to as "sub-prime"... so lets go fishing for MARLIN and BUY ON THE DIP!
--- And if we have to give a financial RECO or two, ....for fun lets add EQUIFAX INC (EFX: NYSE) & watch FAIR ISAAC (FIC) ... we also own DNB and REXI the dog is on fire!
A HEALTHY OPTION .... buy UNH on the DIP!
