I used to use tinyurl all the time, but it seems browsers have gotten
better at working with html, so if the URL I'm trying to send looks
like it may wrap, I encode it as a true html link (< href="http://www.somedomain.com
">visible link</a>).
I do use it if I want to surprise someone, so they don't have a hint
of where they're going beforehand. :-)

Congratulations you got in just before this monster rally.
BTW you can buy SSO, it doesn't have a large load like RYDX. SSO is
the 2x of the S&P 500. For the NASDAQ it's QLD. Russell 2000, UWM.
This rally was due to options expiry Friday (today). It will
probably last a few days; the trick is to ID the peak, then get into
the bear funds.
Read the wikipedia link about the biggest one day stock market
rallies - almost all were during the Great Depression - IOW monster
one day rallies signify a sick market that's going down.
IF you want to understand why this market has a long way down still,
read this by Roubini. The unwinding of the derivatives (hedge funds):

Not that this means anything (since I haven't sold anything yet) the
RYLDX stock should be up about 13% today. You pay some hefty front
end loads on these 2X stocks/funds so it doesn't really pay to trade
them a lot. They are more buy and hold IMHO.

I know there are a few of you out there who have followed my journey
with Red Beast and I just wanted to put out the word that after
spending 5 years building her the car was sold last week. I was rear
ended in my pickup truck about 90 minutes after the sale so I
quickly went from 4 cars to 2 cars. Anyway, the guy who bought it
was from NC and drove it home (about 5 hours). The car sold for a
measly $4500 (not too happy about that but there isn't a huge market
for a car like that) and I used the money to:
1) buy a broken HDTV off Craigslist ($100)
2) buy $4400 worth of RYLDX (mutual fund that does 2X the Dow)
Hopefully the RYLDX shares will pay off well in the next 3 years so
I can start building my next car (probably a red LS-1 NB). The
website and lightweight Miata forum will live on.
