Since I leave for Cali tomorrow (yeah to seeing family, boo to getting roped into chores), I'm giving you market news today. FYI, I'll not be posting at all from December 20 until a few days after the new year. I'm hoping everyone will be spending time with their famililes so my silence wont be a big deal. I do have one more post coming today to tide you over until I return. Until then, here's some publication info.
