I haven't been posting all that much lately, because there's really not all that much to say. Some, like CNBC, Jim Cramer and others who are paid to fill space, have tried to get people excited, but that's my style.
The markets aren't presenting many opportunities and in keeping with my lesson from early June, I'm not trying to force anything.
I didn't have any major comments related to anything I've heard out of Semicon, and get the feeling that Intel's awaited numbers will be a yawner.
In the lack of any real stimulus in either direction, I suspect markets could start to float up again and tomorrow I expect to start positioning a bit longer after taking my exposure pretty flat recently. This, somewhat in keeping with the thesis I pointed out on Friday.
In the meantime, I've cleaned the place up, shredded several years worth of stuff that was overdue for destruction, destroyed one shredder in the process, and possibly found a housemate for BelowTheCat.

So? What's up with the housemate?

Hey Lux, I thought I emailed you, but must have left you off the list.
I'm off to New York tomorrow, but my adoption application was approved, so I'll be the provisional owner of the cat named "Shaquille" as soon as I can pick him up when I return. The adoption will become permanent when we determine for sure that he and Clio get along.
In any case, a long-haired, black, adult (5-6 yrs.) male. Talk about having four strikes against you in the adoption game. Hard to believe that people still think the color of a cat's fur would have any impact on their luck.
He's been in the shelter for almost two years and while he's not in a cage, he definitely wants out. I think he'll be good for BTCat.
There's a bad picture on the website: http://www.langefoundation.com/cats.htm
He's off on the right side, about halfway down.
The name, of course, has got to go. "Shaq" is hardly a name for a cat, even if he is a big black guy...

CAT HAIKU:
My brain is walnut size.
Yours is largest of all the primates.
Yet, you go to work.
