Trade Ideas for 01/04/10

The market took a huge tumble in the last half hour of trading New Year's Eve. Just a deep pullback? It seems that way, perhaps tax-related selling. The drop was sudden and sharp, but not devastating. But we'll see next week. We lost a bunch of positions, including our hedge TWM (sadly) and VMW for losses, and CBG and SBGI for gains. We bought GNK.
