Trade Ideas for 05/29/09

It was a day of strong moves in both directions. Why do market participants save their craziest stuff for Thursdays? Anyway, there wasn't enough strength in either direction (or perhaps too much strength in both directions) for the market to break through the recent trading range.

We bought UUP; otherwise, no changes in positions.

Current Holdings

UUP 24.12 24.07 -0.2% 23.92 N/A Chart


If the trading range gets broken tomorrow, let's jump aboard via the financial sector and hope the move's for real. Also, a couple of China plays.
