NOVEMBER 21, 2008 (Dow 8046, up 494) - Would lighten up next week if the rally continues. Stocks will continue to be sold simply because as an asset class they are easiest to sell to meet obligations, like redemptions. Would not short the coals down here.

expect co is next to get bought in sector - MSFT bought AQNT at an 85% premium - GOOG is tryuing to buy Doubleclick - think MSFT is a likely suiter based on CEO Ballmer's recent comments that they are seeking another deal - also, the CEO of AQNT was trying to merge with VCLK before the MSFT takeover - YHOO could also be interested in order to stay competitive - based on the other deals VCLK could be worth 34-59 to an acquirer - good fundamentals provide a cushion if there is no deal - triple buy
