Off to Vacation!

Email this post Print this post
By Barry Ritholtz - August 31st, 2009, 6:00AM

I am leaving for some fun and sun this week, retuning after Labor Day.

I will of course, have the trusty MacBook Pro with me, but at Mrs. BP’s insistence, no wireless card allowed. Morning visits to Starbucks will be allowed for limited periods of time.

No worries though — in addition to a few limited posts of my own, I have a stellar lineup of guest posters who will be inspiring and provoking you.

    BR,

    I’ll point out that Mrs. BP is signaling toward the Right Track.

    Every once in a while, it is best to, simply, Unplug.

    Some things can, truly, take care of themselves while one is taking Care of more Important things( read: People/Friends/Self ).

    With that, I’m following your lead, and my own verbiage. further Research beckons ~

    e|mail should, still, work, though, on extended response times..

    as always, keep an eye on the Barometer — http://quotes.ino.com/chart/?s=NYBOT_DX&t=f

    and, remember, the best Dollars are Silver.

    You could always buy a laptop with integrated WiMAX (i.e., no card)

    But, then again, it won’t float when Mrs. BP shows off her Frisbee technique.

    @ahab

    Sounds to me like BR is adequately “hedged” and doesn’t need to be worried about “cool market action”.

    Have a nice vaca BR…

    The rest of us will just be sitting here waiting for Harry to alert us to some 2% dip buying opportunities, or otherwise trading C, FNM, & FRE shares amongst ourselves like baseball cards… Do you want the gum?

    How can you possibly leave just as the market is about to take off on an upward rocket launch………….OR NOT! Just spent the weekend at a local resort and it was relaxing. Have the same relaxing time!

    Have fun! I take it we will have to do without the daily 10 links for the week?

    All I can say is forget about catching the seventh wave it’s the fifth wave you want to keep an eye on. Tighten up on those stops. Enjoy!
