Jim I don't expect we'll ever return to a buy and hold strategy. Not because of the bubble, but because of the information access and participation revolution. Modern communications, computer access to online trading, the vastly lower cost of moving funds into and out of various investments (including cash and mm's).. will decrease the incentives to buy and hold.

I'm certain that if one were to graph transactions per billions of dollars in equities over the last twenty years this would be patently evident, coinciding with internet/banking/investing growth. Indeed as other markets open themselves seeking broader investor participation ( debt, futures, commodities and derivatives ) they too will find shorter and shorter investor holding cycles.
