Tim Knight runs a portfolio that is entirely short, and today he starts tiptoeing into gold near 4,300 while still arguing that assets could get hit harder from here. He also walks the index closing below the range it has been trapped in since the early September rally, and says the level to watch on any Fed day bounce is Friday's low. Then it is the short book. The Dow position he is happiest with, foreign equities, China and Mexico, restaurants, health insurers, semis and storage, and the Fundrise Innovation Fund, the pre IPO vehicle now printing new closing lows. All market views are Tim's own.
