Grounhog Day

Same morning look as yesterday. The financials are much lower, AIG especially, has given everything back from its rally off the lows yesterday. LEH could be a drill bit today as CNBC just reported there will be no government backstop for a potential purchaser.

Hearing from folks in the know that AIG has more pain ahead. I'm short UYG and AIG

whew!

crazy day for me, playing the ferts and solars-- up, down, big up, big down...

and then, caught the AIG drop near the close perfectly, and heavily short. NICE.

Congrats to you on what I bet was a great day too!
