SRS , good play IMO. Don't know if BOTD mentioned it yet or not.

Commercial RE will be the next shoe to drop. I didn't buy it yet but it's on my list.

Any thoughts on APWR?

For BIG I think you're early with it. Crap stores that sell cheap crap are doing BETTER in this economy as consumers look to save money on things that they need. That's temporary but we can't gauge how long. I hate them too btw but I am not going to short it yet.

Your timing on when to short is good tho, Monday/Tuesday should give us a nice down day and that could get you profits on the short ANYWAY.

Yeah, what does that tell you? :-)

Took 7% profit on my LEH short today rather than risk the weekend, even though it could drop even further come monday/next wk.

Booyah! Come on SKF...

I don't see how LEH being rumored to be bought out could have drove stock prices up today but w/e. I just hope there isn't a rally next week.
