Trade Idea for 03/19/09

Wow, what a day! The Fed announced that it would begin monetizing debt, and that goosed the markets like nobody's business. Monetization = printing money. Deflation will lead to hyperinflation under this policy.

We lost SKF early, and DZZ shortly after the Fed announcement. Gold might bounce around a bit in the next few weeks but it's now a hold, as a way to hedge against Fed policy. Our other holdings did well; this uptrend has broken out farther than it initially seemed possible, but when it ends it could be sudden, so tight stops.

Just one idea for tomorrow; with averages at major resistance (long-term trendlines, 50-day moving averages, etc.), tread carefully.
