bothered me all day and I am still shaking after the call. I believe psychiatrists say to encounter ones fear: I did today. I feel the way I did when it was my last day at work: uncertain about the future. I have a feeling that several traders shorted the stocks I dissed and made outlandish profits on the way down, while I languished feeling sorry for myself. Which is one thing to learn to from the experience: you don't make a dime worrying and handle each situation and day as it comes. I read last week that Steve Jobs always tries to treat each day as his last and constantly questions himself on his accomplishments. And it makes sense, since if you beat up on yourself, there is no one to prosecute, but yourself. Or as FDR says, "there is nothing to fear but fear itself."
I have no idea what the market is going to do, but it is kind of funny that today is when everyone shows up back to work and the traders take the market down big this morning. This market really needs to rally today to show the shorts whose boss.
I shorted, but think I'm imagining things: BBBY FLR ETN...these are shorter term trades, but believe we may get a 2-5% on them. 10% risk.
