        Editor's Note:    
                      Shorted stocks rallied mostly today because of Fed action.  I would wait until
                they close above 50-day ma before covering.  Watch the Bullish stocks for
                FIDSTKS (all Fidelity's biggest holdings) to see when they start turning up.
                Watch the highest Accumulation (AI/200) stocks for the same thing.

                Tax rebates and Fed Discount rate cuts will weaken US dollar.   That should
                 make gold and silver go up. 

                 Buy CHU - Chinese telecomm new high abive triple top.  ITRS>.30
               Buy FDG -  Coal Stock - B12. 46.25 +1.61    Fording Canadian Coal Trust
  Fording Canadian Coal Trust operates as an open-ended mutual fund in Canada. It owns a 60% interest in
  Elk Valley Coal Partnership, which produces and sells hard coking coal, a type of metallurgical coal used for
   making steel in the integrated steel mill process.

Short Positions:  TISI = 21-day ma of Accum. Index.
                                  IP21=current value of Accum. Index.   
In general, we will cover  short sales if they close above 50-day ma. with IP21>0.
                   If they jump too fast, hold them short.  They will combe back to the 50-day ma.
                   Cover them there.  Know that some of these may be short sales again when
                   their short covering rallies are over.
