Sensationalism sells.

I remember two or three years back AllansAlias said he'd come to to dismiss all the uber-bears. (He'd long before dismissed the uber-bull clowns.)

Betting on an outlier, especially an extreme, is a low-odds play.

2008/09 scared the sh*t out of me, but I find myself wondering (not for the first time)about the collective gloomy outlook on SI. Accurate or not, I think there is a negative bias here that feeds on itself and colors (for some) investment/trading decisions.

Disclosure: Pretty close to flat, as well, except for a handful of Canuck juniors, a spot of NGD and a couple other odds and ends.
