There are very few people who have a balanced eclectic approach and outlook to investing/trading. Most are married to either a specific approach (ie; Elliot Wave, etc) or specific outlook (ie; secular bear, etc). But it's healthy if you are bullish to read the Bearish threads so you can challenge and question your bullishness. That's what I do. Conversely, when I'm bearish, I primarily read the bullish threads so I can challenge and question my bearishness. I couldn't care less if I'm uncritically attacked for being on the opposite side of the ledger. I'm here to learn, share ideas and maximize profit for myself.

Many of the permabears have overstayed their welcome and are just beating a dead horse here. If they don't change their tune soon, the same fate awaits them as what befell the "new era" bulls at the beginning of the new millenium. Markets, like life, ultimately move forward, not backward. The Bear is merely a moment which is preserved and surpassed within the Bull.

Another big risk here is that the Notheast continues to get a brutal winter and crude oil climbs to $80/bbl by February. That's not likely, but is possible. If that happened, the S@P could fall to 1120.

Some of the Permabears don't believe in "new era" or progress and have never profited from an internet stock. I reckon they are still living in the past.

But I am going to give you the same message that I told the Goldbugs in October 2000:

High Tech is not dead and will see the light of day again. The NDX has very little sponsorship today. But that will change. When people look back in 2010, they'll see that the Nasdaq 100 at 1700 was a ground floor opportunity.
