The Russell with Irrational Exuberance

After a steep climb from what is now going on 5 freaking year, out of the March 11 2009 hole....now the Russell has left the steep channel and it pounding up in an every steeper channel.

This is surely the sign of a pullback coming, but just arbitrarily shorting this market has been just deadly.    I will set some "sell below orders" and of course miss some or much of the move.

It is such a shame that the Big Gov is in such a predicament that they have to act like this.

10 Commandments

HOW MOSES GOT THE 10 COMMANDMENTS
God went to the Arabs and said,
'I have Commandments for you that will make your lives better.'

The Arabs asked, 'What are Commandments?'
And the Lord said, 'They are rules for living.'

'Can you give us an example?'
'Thou shall not kill.'
'Not kill? We're not interested.'

So He went to the Blacks and said, 'I have Commandments.'
The Blacks wanted an example, and the Lord said,
'Honor thy Father and Mother.'
'Father? We don't always know who our fathers are..
We're not interested.'

Then He went to the Mexicans and said,
'I have Commandments.'
The Mexicans also wanted an example, and the Lord said 'Thou shall not steal.'
'Not steal? We're not interested.'

Then He went to the French and said,
'I have Commandments.'
The French too wanted an example and the Lord said, 'Thou shall not commit adultery.'
'Sacre bleu!!! Not commit adultery? We're not interested.'

Finally, He went to the Jews and said,
'I have Commandments ....'
'Commandments?' They said, 'How much are they?'
'They're free.'
'We'll take 10.'

There. That should piss off just about everybody.
Keep smiling in the New Year!!
