Brian, this snippet of news from WSJ is germaine:

"HEARD ON THE STREET
from The Wall Street Journal.

One of Wall Street's biggest bears couldn't escape last year's bull market
without being mauled. And the 35.6% stumble experienced by David Rocker's
hedge fund underscores the difficulty these days facing short sellers."

It shows how difficult it is to mentally overcome a bearish prejudice. That goes for bullish, too. We have all seen people come forth with reasons why the decline in their stock is just temporary - the FA still looks great. All the while the decline continued.

We must remain aware of that.
