Missed Opportunity
Citigroup is up early this morning. It closed on Friday at the scary price of 3.77.
I just sold my *6.28-stock* at 5.90 at 8am this Monday morning.
I knew, I just knew that I should have bought a chunk more. There was no way the Big Government wasn't going to jawbone a *rescue* over the weekend.
However, this changes very little. Any bailout of Citigroup will require hundreds of billions of dollars. Citigroup is definitely a *short* here at $6.
Though, it might easily become a *much better short*. I'll do nothing at this price.
Expect a second, several hundred billion dollar *bailout*, er stimulus, to make its way out of Congress very soon.
Expect it to distract investors from reality and politicians from their profound incompetence.
And expect C-Nut to get short the market again at more favorable prices.

Would you buy Google long today? 254 a few minutes ago.
Slow out.
In fact, I did buy it last week at $254. See my post.
Shoulda done it. Too much self doubt. Over 280 today.
Slow out.
When it comes to investing I have the cojones of a 9 year old girl.
Slow,
Give me your millions to trade and sleep soundly at night!
