Thats funny, my buddy who lives out in your area uses the same strategy for buying stocks.
I always wait for volume to drop off on the down trend then buy in. I can't chase an up trend. :)
I felt good about getting into SIRI @ .312, one reason was, a lot of fear was in the air. You are my canary in the trading coal mine Bill!!
Anyway, yeah its hard to keep politics out of this, because its all politics in the markets now.
I have Levins book too. My favorite chapter right now is Federalism. He really breaks it down and defines it very well. :)
I (cough, cough) borrowed the audio too, so I can listen to it in the garage.
