Rut roh! CNBC pulled Peter Schiff back out for their Fast Money broadcast today at 5:10pm ET. I haven't seen him on CNBC in a long time but we all know what his 2007/08 appearances meant!
My bet is stocks heading back down.
Dow closes down triple digits as oil falls, yen climbs
U.S. stocks closed about 1 percent lower or more Thursday, with financials leading declines. Continued strength in the yen against the dollar renewed concerns about global growth and the effectiveness of central bank policy.
The major averages ended off session lows but the S&P 500 still closed more than 1 percent lower to erase year-to-date gains. The Dow Jones industrial average closed about 174 points lower after earlier falling 231 points, with Goldman Sachs contributing the most to declines.
The Japanese yen was near 108.4 yen against the U.S. dollar around the stock market close after earlier trading near 107.7, a fresh high against the greenback going back to October 2014.
When is that not your bet?

Compared to the dollar unit, that's always my bet. Funny that the stock market always steals wealth no matter whether it's going up or down.
Up? Dollar unit worth less. Down? Dollar units put into a stock account go bye-bye. Imaginary money always loses "value" no matter what because faith is lost in one way or another.
What say you?
appropriate time for a bump, no?

I'm making so much money today.
PM or gov bonds?
Both, plus doubling down on stocks before they rebound. Seems an overreaction.
BTFD BEEEYACHES

Well duh - sell on rumor, buy on news. That's how it works.There always is an over-reaction. Nothing has actually changed yet. The response is over the uncertainty of the situation..
