I think the rally of the last few days is largely a lot of short covering, but you can't miss the signs of a short term rally through the end of December. I think people are anticipating the Fed cut, either 25 or 50 bp, and a better-than-expected holiday season.
It's worth while to look for a few strong stocks that will benefit the most from seasonal sales: winter clothing, cigarettes, alcohol, natural gas/heating oil producers, and obviously tech/electronic.
Be critical of the stocks you decide to go with, as we will most likely see a return to volatility after the holiday shopping season.
Will be watching: GRMN, BIDU, GOOG, SIRT, EQT, OKS,
Favorites: CU (adr), COLM,
