BOTTOM LINE: I expect US stocks to finish the week mixed as bargain-hunting, technical buying, lower energy prices and diminishing financial sector pessimism offset more shorting, rising credit market angst, tax hike worries and increasing economic pessimism. My trading indicators are giving mostly bearish signals and the Portfolio is 50% net long heading into the week.
