Despite my post proclaiming the end of the bull run in stocks I’m feeling that these moves, and the Portuguese situation are overdone for now, so I’m going to look at a long or longs in some of the European stock markets. None of my platforms have the Portuguese index so I’m probably going to go with Italy and/or Germany.
