RE: "No one expects fundamentals for the equipment companies to improve anytime soon."

So the stocks have almost doubled from the bottom because it is "the point of maximum pessimism" and the above quote is true!?

Consider that this may be "the point of maximum complacency" because everyone is counting on " fundamentals for the equipment companies to improve...soon."

You have heard the mantras, "it got so bad, so fast, it has to improve" and "the fed will not let it get any worse."

Maximum pessimism is "it got so bad, so fast, we are doomed; massive bankruptcies are ahead and the fed is just pushing on a string."
