RE: "I think there are clear signs that will be coming out of this economic slowdown soon..." Economists don't see clear signs. In fact, there is disbelief about the recent GDP numbers. They are expected to be revised down. Some economists are still forecasting a recession. It is normally a given that it is better to be bullish at lower levels than at higher, but I think that looking at levels without considering business fundamentals is foolish. Do you believe that the economic slowdown caused the tech debacle or that the tech excesses caused the slowdown? What are the technology drivers that will return the Nasdaq companies to profitability and allow the index to move up without renewed bubble valuations? Your disdain for valuations and trust in the market seems to reflect the general mentality that has pervaded recent investing. It got lots of people in lots of trouble last year and people still have more money to lose.
