Mike, you bring up some very good points.

I think you're expecting too much too quick. If this bear has taught any of us anything, it's that what should be happening today is happening instead tomorrow, next month, or next year, or still hasn't happened at this point. There are countless examples of this over the last year. Denial just doesn't go away over night.

My theory of course is that the stock market is the economy. Where as the 70's economy tanking brought down the market, while today it will be the market that brings down the economy. So far it's been concentrated on the Naz and no, I don't believe everyone was dumb enough to be in the Naz. I think so far all that has happened is a very small portion of total investors have been hit. I mean the DOW isn't even in bear market territory, and the Spoo is only in a bear by a little bit. We also have bandaids being applied everywhere, from the FED trying to stimulate to the news media telling people not to panic because this will all be over in a short time.
