Until the banks come clean, we'll have a trading-range market. The big question is how much of $200 billion in structured-investment-vehicle assets will come back onto the balance sheets of the major money center banks -- Citigroup (C, news, msgs), JPMorgan Chase (JPM, news, msgs)Barclays (BCS, news, msgs), etc.

So I will let the market selling exhaust itself to the downside and buy back for a year-end rally.
