Whether you know it or not, we're all exposed to risk from the financials sector (think big banks, GE, etc).

And when I look across the positions in my portfolio, I have significant open exposure on the long side of the market.

I've always wondered -- can publicly traded advisory and consulting services recommend the purchase of their own stock to their clients? There's probably a rule against this. Certainly, it would be in an ethical gray area.

That's too bad,...

Every so often I like to put on some delta neutral credit spreads to balance out the portfolio a bit. It's all about diversifying the books so that I'm not solely reliant on direction or volatility. We've got positions on currently that will benefit...

Seems there has been a lot of talk about the stock market "pausing" or being "due for a correction."

While I see the same things the bears are seeing, I'm also seeing price action in a variety of corners of the market still telling a bullish...

I'll be honest with you. I've been on cruises before. I don't think I have a need to ever do them again. I mean, the time spent "in port" was where the real fun for me was. Time trapped on the boat? Meh.
