I have decided that this would be my last post - on this site.I have a new design and domain - www.howardlindzon.com I wanted a simpler and more personal design and to try out the wordpress software.Thanks Loren for getting this done quickly and painlessly - at least for me!If you feel like making CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM - go ahead over at the new site. It is a work in progress but was fun

Nothing like teeing up on US Open weekend. I love seeing Tiger win and used to root against Phil. I guess I love a winner and now find myself rooting for Phil. No one touches him tomorrow and he wins running away. No more boob jokes. He is the shizzle. I played one of his courses today and fired a low number so now I am a fan of his course design as well. Go Phil.

O.K. maybe not everyone. You need a computer and a connection or access to one and YOU ARE IN PLAY. Chartruese brings home the point better than me with this post .

Oldest rule in the trader's playbook - Count on the WUSSES in the US government to pressure the Fed. Today Bernacke has forecasted his hand to the world by saying the US can withstand higher oil prices. Is he just insane! He can't be that stupid. Oil has barely budged to the downside and prices are likely low compared to where they should be.He has become a puppet in record time! He has

PHEW!!!!Put myself on the line with this Gold and Emerging market trade and it is looking good. India up 10 percent (IFN) and closed on the high. Russia closed up 10 plus percent for the second day in a row.I was hopeful for this rally but you never expect to get paid on risky trades like this.My gold buys intra-day were all positive and I am waaaay long gold right now.I booked some profits at

The last 4 weeks have really been interesting for me. I have truly found a new tool for trading extremes. ETF's, while still illiquid in many cases, are the new new thing for all types of investors. You must adjust position sizing for the illiquidity factor, but when all is said and doneWHY OWN STOCKS. It will help when options make their entrance into the ETF space but they will.

With India up another 9 plus percent this morning I am saying good bye to all but my original buys. Same with Russia.Feels great to have gotten this one correct after all the worrying.I am not selling gold stocks but did not add. I can press here because I have lightened the load in India and Russia.I am looking around the US stocks now in case the rally is for real. There are a ton of stocks

I am taking some India profits (IFN) at the open as well as some TRF - my focus through Monday is my Gold trade.Gold bullion is up strong. If it persists, I look for the stocks to open strong, but continue HIGHER throughout the day and expiration so I may pile in if we stay strong through the first 30 minutes.

Blogging is "tipping" (hate the word, but too tired right now), we all know that. The tools are available and growing exponentially - see all my previous posts. Blogentrepreneurship is "Prime Time".Jeff Clavier, who I met at a web 2.0 unconference and just seems tireless, has my idea of the perfect job. Impossible work, and long hours, but surely rewarding.He has a great post on "

"I can lose money for you anywhere, anytime""Show me the ...margin call!"There's always a bull market somewhere...until there is a bear market everywhere and you are so mixed up by my shenanigans on CNBC that you are on margin and have lost your wife and your dog just peed on you and your kids are now going to Devry!"At times like these, it is most glaringly obvious why CNBC and their "reporters"

In the you "think you are having a bad May and June department":Rumor on the street is that Niederhoffer (legenday trader? for Soros) was down 28.5% in May. Wonder how June is going? And he JUST got to $400 million under management! YOWZA.Back to my struggles:Russia was up 10 percent so that was nice and India up 5 percent. I am still loaded up on these so one more great day would be NICE. I

A good internet service, while not making it's founders rich day one, can bring riches later on due to the continuing development of wicked internet tools - the same tools that are profiled every day at Mashable and Tech Crunch. The key is to manage the overhead and offer uncommon value, locally and/or globally.I have talked at length about the opportunity in the blogging industry. The stats

Too many eyes glued to the screens today worried about the next $10 in Gold and 10 points in the S&P.Days like today usually do not give either party what they want, so I would not be surprised to see some chop.If the sellers show up after lunch, the whole late day margin mess will unravel again.People have given up on Russia (not me), so it is having a good day. Nobody could care watch that TRF

We are due for a pause in the downside looking at the VIX, but the cash position of mutual funds does not get me excited to rush out and get 100 percent invested.Other breaking news:This morning, the heat wave broke in Phoenix - the high will be 109, down from 112. Good news though - A CLOUD WAS SPOTTED OVER THE PACIFIC AND SHOULD ARRIVE IN AUGUST.Listening to our weather forecast is like

Talk about an echo chamber. Day three at TechMeme and he is still all over their site. I am close to removing this site from my blogroll as it is starting to seem rather irrelevant.

In euphoric times and ugly times I like to check in on Richard Russell. He is at least 200 years old and has been writing for 199 years.He has seen all the cycles. He is not one to pull punches.I checked in today and he has a few insights, but not much more than I have been writing about here.Richard is correct in saying that margin and debt will bleed you and kill you in markets like this.
