“Broke the low, bounced. Meaningless. Horrible day. Not a lot of players because this is a big vacation week. However, the damage is stark and, as my friend Doug Kass reminds us, we need Jack Bauer. As someone who cannot short, as someone who feels the pain of the longs, I so did not want to be right in my last series of shows and in my articles lately about how bad this market is and how I think it isn't done. Look, you cannot get a "bottom" when the fates of Prudential (PRU) Allstate (ALL), Hartford Financial (HIG) Lincoln National (LNC) and Principal (PFG) hang in the balance. You can't get a bottom when Citigroup (C) tosses and turns and flops and chops, and the General Motors (GM) equity could be crammed down to AIG (AIG) status. You can't get a "fear" bottom when the fear may not be strong enough. Today was a miserable day. Miserable. I took a rare day off from my show just to take a day off -- nothing scheduled for vacation until the last week in June -- and I had a sickening feeling it would be miserable. And here it is. Someone will say we didn't take out the lows. I say "blah blah blah." Call me when the insurance/banking situation is stabilized more and I will take it from there. The panic is not in. The slow strangle is.”
