Laying low the next couple of weeks

I'll probably be keeping my eye on things for the next two weeks, but I doubt that I'll do much trading. There's too much going on right now to worry about a thinly traded market. I might chime in here and there, but for now, I wish everybody happy holidays. We made it through the most insane market in years. Here's to hoping '09 is a little more predictable!

I thought I'd throw my performance data in the ring to close out the year.

2008: -29.2%

That's my worst year ever, but I was down -60% at one point. My records also indicate that I was up 32% YTD in July. Of course, July feels like it must have been 20 years ago.

Overall, I'm not complaining. I'm a screener by the way.

Down 60% would have made me throw up. You should be proud to claw your way back. I think those of us who survived this year will be much better traders in the years to come. Watch out market, here we come.
