Hey Mark---

Just stopping... I've been short along with you (the following):
PRU
PLD
KIM
I am just getting destroyed, especially after Friday's actions..
Do you feel the (REIT) sector is a bit overheated?
I know we need to respect price action (up-volume, breakouts, etc.), but those moves were a bit overblown ( to the upside)... would you agree?
Thanks, Andrew

My personal style is when a position moves against me, I have to reduce position size no matter what I personally believe.

The market can stay irrational longer than you can remain solvent. It's simple as that. I need my capital to make money down the road so I can't lose it hand over fist fighting a horde of folk. Eventually the move will tire and money can be made at an easier point rejoining that side of the fight. It might be tomorrow or in 4 months - can't tell until we get there.
