Factorshares needs to make a 2x VIX/2x short Sp500/2x long term treasury ETF. Call it the bear ETF.

My usual defensive holdings did fine today.
NOT Optimal.

Buying TLT calls is the best trade I've ever made. It was looking iffy yesterday afternoon, but that 2nd lower high in the SP500 was the nail in the coffin. I should have just shorted the S&P but I needed to confirm in my own mind that inter market relationships still exist.

I know! Wanted to buy the Vix...
We're due. Strap in.
Did you sell all your longs?
Watch out, some of the VIX emulating funds are real duds.

Nope, kept all the longs; they're for DGI investing.
An October Surprise may make some waves as well...

I recently learned a phrase that has really hit home with me: when the VIX is low, look out below.
If earnings continue to be lousy next week, this market could get really violent.

Why is it a surprise that earnings are down?

It really wasn't. The unlimited QE provided too much euphoria (myself included) in the face of negative fundamentals, like yesterday's initial claims biggest jump percentage wise in 5 years. The BLS [censored] employment report last week was a sham.

I've been in PHG for about a month now; they rewarded investors with a good earnings report today. I briefly considered selling, but I'm in that one for the long haul.

Yup, and the Yen never collapsed, there was never hyperinflation, and rates continue falling.
