Waiting it out.

Short Dow, S&P 500, Gold, Silver

I am going to a Thai buddhist temple to meditate with a really holy and powerful monk.

Michael Werner:

Buying gold and silver and waiting to see what happens.

David Houston:

I am doing mostly short-term swing and trend trading instead of long-term buy and hold. I am watching the situation in the event I need to cash out, but I am not basing short-term trading decisions upon it.

Santhosh Kamath:

Trying to stay away from Greek salad, food, etc. until they settle.

Tim Ritchey:

Jumping in with both feet ... the market has been incredibly resilient in recent weeks to Euro news ... I think fear is keeping many people from moving ... sounds good ... maybe famous last words!!!

Diane Holley:

Everyone else is short ... I'm long!!!
