>>My comments are simple when stocks get to crazy valuations one must take some cash out of the market.If TA can give me some warning sign the next time around,I want to learn what it is all about before I give it a blanket dismissal.Call me crazy for wanting to learn.<<

Of course learning is the best thing to do. The more we learn the better equipped we are to read the signs, discerning the important and ignoring the frivolous.

Some people believe that trying to find a way to time the market - or a stock - is like trying to find the fountain of youth or the formula that turns lead into gold. Others, believe differently.

We all have many choices to make in managing our investments - what to buy, when to buy it, how much to diversify and how long to hold. If you really want to learn whether you yourself can beat LTB&H here is a test:

Take your real portfolio this weekend and create a private portfolio for yourself here on SI. Make everything exactly the same. Then go ahead and manage your investments using whatever tools you wish - TA, FA, options, etc. But, do not touch the SI portfolio, just leave it as a pure buy and hold model. Then you can use it as a yard stick. See if you can beat it for a month, a year, five years. Then you will have your answer.

I think that is such good advice, I may even take it myself. <g>
