(1) GAS price now is $4.19/4.29/4.39 per gallon in bay area. 2008 market went to crash when gas price here was around 4.5$. shooting to $5.
(2) QE2 is near the end.
(3) nothing is changed in wall street except fatter paychecks.
(4) stock is near the pre-crisis high although nothing is materially improved (including housing, unemployment, outsourcing, tax law, health care law etc) other than panic mood and printed money.
There are more risk on updise than downside i believe. it is good to do selected trading in a fraction of money if you have to go on the long side.
