Today, Tuesday, October 21, 2008, I sold SPY, first for client accounts, then for my personal accounts.

I bought SPY on Friday, anticipating a short-term counter-trend bounce. We did indeed get a very nice bounce yesterday, though volume was light.

I sold out this position this morning, as our profit was quickly evaporating. We managed to eke out a tiny gain -- not nearly as much as I had hoped -- but at least it is a gain.

We're back to 100% cash now. Cash is the place to be in this still extremely difficult and risky market. My indicators remain unanimously bearish.
