***stop badmouthing the shorters <<<

I think you are right Gottfried...Brian and I have different perspectives on shorting..

1) As Brian said its against his nature to short stocks, and to profit from tragedy that moves the market.

2) I think its dumb to short at the start of a bull market. Lets use today's close on AMAT and check back in three months to see who did OK...the longs or the shorts.

I just got an e-mail message from a Pygmy in the Congo. He is pissed. He likes Mike's outlook better than mine. Off he goes from my Xmas card list...

Regards, Jerome
