If you are really concerned you should have lots of cash plus some shorts and puts. Personally I don't think the situation is as clear cut as everyone says.

When the herd is all poised and ready to run one direction, you can often do well if you are prepared to go the other way.

Just don't get stampeded, of course.

I am in a position where another big drop in Internet and tech stocks will dent my 1999 gains but not wipe them out by any means. They have already withstood a substantial pullback.

And I don't see a broadbased fall coming during earnings season. The US economy is still doing great and the top companies are still making money.

Put me down as definitely uncertain about the next few months.
