Bear markets historically last 18 months...

And we are well beyond that...

Of course we had a bubble of historical proportions too, so it seems absolutely reasonable that we get a protracted bear...

Ii hear much discussion about the "major averages" being down and not "stocks" in general....there is some truth to that....

But as you indicate....I think *most* of the money is in the major averages (401K, IRAs, Keoghs)

Not only have the generals been shot...many will never resurrect....

My feeling about the major averages most especially the DOW and S& P is that capitulation has to be gut wrenchingly severe.....

That being said....I do wonder if we could be in for a fierce bear market rally...

Just random musings..
