Thank you for the bump.

What isn't widely recognized is the critical level the dollar stands at right now. If it falls below 108.50 I'm afraid currency traders will get a hold of it and then there's not much hope for a summer rally.

All in all - I hope you're not worried about me. I've prepared well for this - through inverse funds and general market "insurance" through puts as well as being long gold and silver stocks since last summer and fall.

I worry that so many are unprepaired - but try telling anyone last January that the market wasn't going to be alright and it was like beating my head against a brick wall. Or try to convience people to get some insurance through puts....that was even worse.

And if I gave my honest opinion as to what was down the road a bit....not many would believe me anyway. So I just keep plugging along and take advantage of every beautiful day with my daughters.

Give it a go. I'd like to hear it.

Sounds like a good time to start a business. I think I will.
