Les..
What to do? what to do? While my blue-chip investment portfolio lagged, while the financial stocks look lousy, my trading portfolio jumped and wagged it's tail like a Hokie :) . I'm up 60% (about) on my trading portfolio this month because I've been fortunate enough to be "in a few good stocks". Like an imbecile, I even used margin this month for the first time in 10 years, reduced to 8% today by selling WPNE which went up another 4 points after I grabbed a 7 1/2 point profit.

So many others must be using margin...
What is going on in the market?

The A/D line is making new lows..... HOWEVER.. The Bradley model points to a near term selloff, but January points to MANICALLY up.... It's truly amazing how squiggles on a chart motivate herd mentality.

From a technician's point of view it appears that the oscillators can only go in one direction, and that is up especially If Y2K is a nonevent,( and maybe the snafus's will be monstrous,).... the a/d line is so oversold and so many stocks could reverse here.

Short term...I could see a significant pullback. PROFIT TAKING. There's mania in the market....However, Don Wolanchuck who has a BIGG following is calling for 16600 on the Dow on the way to 60,000 led by the TECHS.

Could the mania be that insane...I ponder.

Excuse me, time to open a good red and have dinner.
