Market Acting According To Plan

Yesterday I said, “Looking to buy weakness today, but not this morning. Waiting to see if we end weaker at the close with kind of a blow down. If we do, I’m back in heavy.”

This morning the market is up quite nicely right out of the gate on a strong retail number and some news that some folks over at Lehman Brothers were canned.

Dow up 100, NDX up 1% or 2% if you’re into 2x beta.
