Time To Short Those Bonds

Last night, driving at 1:30 in the morning with my son to find a place to look at the meteor shower, I was telling him about the magical world of Dennis Gartman. I described the entire Gartman meme over at ZH, and my boy thought it was hilarious.
Well, right on cue, here’s a new posting from Tyler-ville about Dennis the Menace. Based largely on this, and the gap shown below, I’ve entered a short position on (ARCA:TLT). In Gartman-speak, I guess that means I am “pleasantly short of bonds.”
I was originally going to make this a Slope Plus post, since I tend to save my specific ideas for them, but I thought I’d toss you lurkers a bone.
