As we’ve been saying for quite some time, this is not a safe market. Today’s plunge was proof of that. But what’s scary is that it’s far from over. We just broke late 2014 support could very easily plunge to 16,000. We have to be prepared for anything. Our DIA...

I was on vacation the other day with family. I didn’t have to pay which made it even more relaxing. Some how they talked me into swimming with dolphins… My dolphin was a bit, well… aggressive and overly “affectionate.” Perhaps it was the wet suit I was forced to wear....

I’ve been involved in the market for 16 years… With the exception of the subprime fiasco that helped me capture some incredible gains using put options on the overall market and subprime, Alt-A names, Bear Stearns and Lehman Brothers, I’ve never seen a market quite...

On July 22, 2015, I noted, “The worst is far from over.” I recommended a buy on the DIA November 2015 177 put up to $6 with that note. Since then, the Dow fell another 300 points to the downside. Still, the worst is far from over… The Dow just broke previous support...

There’s just no rhyme or reason to the market these days… China, Puerto Rico, Greece, Russia, Iran, oil, gold… you name it. And it’s making a mess of the market. The Dow fell 200 yesterday. We’re down another 90 today… after challenging historic resistance that’s...
