Roger,
Actually, there is one sector that is apparently immune to the bull.The OSX and drillers were shorted into oblivion(PEs of as low as 6 and up to 17 with average for 98 PE right now about 10-12).The sector has the strongest earnings across the board of any sector but can't fight the mis-perception that lower oil effects earnings.Problem is for shorts, there is apparently little downside left.All the money was made is N0v-Jan.It simply amazes me to see worthless companies skyrocket with negative earnings qtr. after qtr. Apparently the "Greater Fool" theory had validity.
