Seems like high time we had a good storm to stir things up in the Gulf (with apologies to those of you who lived thru Katrina and others). Now oil companies finally have a good excuse to raise oil prices!

Whatever the market is doing today - I suggest that investors do the opposite. Yes, I'm losing CAPS points, but my investment thesis remains unchanged. Long on energy, metals, and tech - and short on home-builders (MTH), retail (OSTK), and airlines (LCC). Even if it does hurt a bit!
And keeping cash on hand for future buying opportunities...
