Quick update on the crude front.  Crude just hit $139.89 early this morning which may be the reason why futures have taken a large hit pre-market.  Crude is currently trading at $138.35.  I know Goldman and others were predicting crude to $150, but who knows.  Maybe we’ll see $150 by the end of the week?

Daily Recap and Status - May 9, 2008

The action today was anemic.  Now I understand what folks like Dinosaur Trader and others complain about when the markets behave like today.  It also didn’t help that oil reached a record $126.22ish at its high.  Visa took another hit today, down another 4 points.  It’s reaching my entry/exit target of ~$81.  My feeling is [...]
