I agree Steve.  I will be lightening up my longs into the weekend.  The KRE risk is 100% not over and we can wake up any Monday morning with another bank run.   As far as the headline that they are going to look into market manipulation - I've heard that one before and rarely does anything come of it.  Bottom line is that if a few guys with a lot of money (see hedge fund managers) decide they want to short a stock and agree, they can do so.  It's not inside information.  Relief rally is right !  Opened a KRE Sept 30 short today and added to my PNC short which I posted several days ago.   Given that we got a good news (whatever) Friday, there is an increased likelyhood of a bad news Monday.
