Back on September 26th I told you guys that timing was going to become the new focal point of the newsletter. It didn't matter if we were talking about the overall market, a sector, or individual stocks ... pinpointing the tops and bottoms for anything is half the trading battle, so we were going to do more of it for you.

Right now it's still a little early to come to a conclusion. Indices are tanking more than a full percentage point today, but after a 17% upswing in less than a month, a pullback of that size could be expected without it meaning we're getting ready to crater. In fact, the market deserves a pullback even bigger than that before we have a need to worry.
