We picked these stocks because of their high multiple assuming that they'd
be vulnerable to a correction. I haven't checked out what happened today,
but we had a pretty good day overall. Now I'm jealous of my brother's short
QQQ. Oh well, I'll get the hang of trading these equities yet.
My brother just sent me an email but I haven't checked it out yet. He said
that with a $100k short, we'd have made $20k today. Too bad it was a paper
trade. 20% on shorting these stocks while he made 4% on the QQQ.

Just my 2 cents, Guy. You've got a lot of oil and financials in here. The
oil stocks should be seeing favorable earnings comparisons this quarter over
last year and that trend is expected to continue in that sector. The
financials (including insurance, brokerages, and banks of all sizes) are
expected to begin takeover madness in the wake of last year's financial
reforms. Not sure when it will begin, but the insurance sector took of from
a bottom just before mid-March. I have been long oil in some of my
retirement accounts since last year and I am now establishing longs in
regional banks and insurance companies that I expect to hold until around
September possibly longer.
