Heinz, 1991 was the start of a renewed bull, further at the time shorting was not as popular as it is today.

Few years before, I remember that I had an account at Fidelity and when I said I want to short stock, I was called in to the branch manager who explained me that this is not "American" further instead of 50% margin I was required to have 100%.

Today the situation is quite different and therefore we will have those short wild spikes to the upside. Further many mistake the US economy with Japan's and it is not so. At least as of now the US UK and Germany are more or less together and fiscal and monetary policy .......... they will inflate us out of the hole.

With a deflationary tendency, inflationary pressure will take quite a time to surface.

As soon as scare will subside and the sell out will exhaust itself we will bounce ........ a military action will be the trigger, even if meaningless ........... the shorts will facilitate the rally not fundamentals. Fundamentals will surface later.
