Today, Thursday, September 18, 2008, I bought SPY, first for client accounts, then for my personal accounts.

This is an exchange-traded fund which tracks the S&P 500. It is a way to get back into the market quickly without picking individual stocks.

I think this afternoon's sharp rally on enormous volume marks a short-term reversal in the market's direction.

At this time, I do not see this as a major bottom, just a short-term trading opportunity.
