Hi Bill,

Nope no farm betting for me either.

My end of year bonus will trim my margin to all but bullet proof.

You are a historian of markets - I have been struck with the similarity of this market and the 97-98 bottom.

97 had a failed Rally which resulted in a double bottom in 98.

01 had a failed Rally after 9/11 and double bottomed in July and October 02.

If a similar recovery occurs we'll see a strong end of Novenmber - sideways Dec and a nice pop (January effect).

At those lofty levels we'll rethink our excuberance and back and fill into March's prewarnings period.

Then if our recovery is to be - we'll come with sequential earnings increases and bigger backlog - which will enable a forward vision for the first time in 3 years.

AHHHH Confidence - it may well be a eery replay of the 4 year cycle.

The Naz bottomed in 1998 on Oct 18 - The NAZ bottomed in 02 on Oct 16th.

Pretty close to a 4 year cycle.

Any thoughts???

Bob
