I think the sentiments are too bearish. And there is a lot of cash on the sideline. And yes, subprime is not even close to being over. But if these banks can drag a rally until 2007 October, which should have been down earlier like in March 2007, then I believe this time around with Paulson's proposals and all the government intervention, they may be able to levitate the markets up for probably 9 to 12 months longer. Seems to be impossible, but if you don't mark your book to the true value, shares can still trade positively, even though the company should be in bankruptcy. Remember that the definition of bankruptcy is when you run out of cash, not when your net assets go to negative. On gold, I had a friend who bought from monex.com. There may be other good places, but I haven't bought enough physical to comment. Best luck. The above is my personal opinion only. I think the sentiments are too bearish.

The dividend yield from All Stocks has really closed the yield on 10 year government notes, and if I recall correctly just exceeded it on 2-year bonds (called Gilts in the UK). This very often signals the end of a bear market. Not sure if this relationship holds in the US, but might be worth investigating.

Markets broke support on the reliable head and shoulder pattern. Magically, it rose above the support again. So far, it appears that it was a head fake on the downside, which occasionally happen. I've covered my shorts, but not my hedges. And just an important note. No one is going to be right every time. And no one is going to be wrong every time either. You are welcome to take any bets. I'm just calling as I see it. The most important thing about trading is the IMMEDIATE WILLINGness to admit that you are wrong and take action. Best luck. There is nothing that’s really wrong.
