LT buy

Holding Rationale for AXP.

i may be premature here dipping my toes into financials. AXP got spanked pretty hard for revealing what we already knew: people are having trouble paying their bills. i looked at the charts over many different time periods, looked at the financials, looked at the investors who hold shares, and thought about the overall economic picture. i think i am in at a good price if we experience a quick short downturn here. if it is a more protracted and painful one, i think my downside risk is limited. i reserve the right to change my mind on a dime though ;-)

I just shorted the financial sector (one among many). Economy still slowing down. Believe the market is about to take another hit. So says my DJIA chart. Will see.
