Prepare for Black October

Now that the Fed, US Treasury, Congress, SEC, and Wall Street have all conspired to keep the market afloat, the only logical thing that can happen next is a market collapse. I’m guessing that late September or perhaps October will result in a dreaded “black __day” event.
I’m wondering why the new housing bill didn’t include a provision to shore up FDIC. If the Fed and Treasury want to protect the banking system, it would seem the best way would be to boost FDIC reserves. Oh well, I expect some more banks to fall this or next Friday.
Be careful out there. I’ll try to sell out at the next big rally.
