the Feb contract tends to correct back to tag up with the expiration price of the Dec contract in a bearish atmosphere before it can start the seasonal new year bounce. I will be watching for that next year.

I tell you this, Dewey and I are both ready for the New Year bounce. It can't get here soon enough for me.

In the morning very early I am going on a two week vacation with two lap top computers. I hope to be able to keep up with the markets quite well during that time.

Best wishes,
