Allen,
Thanks for your post. One comment on your <<3. He pointed out yesterday that there has not been a Bear Market since 1990. I think the case can be made that there was indeed a Bear Market in 1998.>>

There was also a bear market in 1994. The major averages were flattish, but a lot of stocks got creamed. The averages were held up by the current nifty fifty (or hundred, or whatever it is these days).
I forget now what the stats were, but it was pretty gruesome for most stocks.

So can we now conclusively say that in this Great New Era, we're on a 4 year bear cycle?<vbg>
