My question is why do you all keep thinking the demise is about to happen any day?

In case you haven't noticed, the tone of thread has changed quite a bit the last few days, as more short realize the demise WILL NOT happen any day.

Can anyone give a logical reason why you shouldn't wait until the knife begins to fall?

I for one (probably like most) felt the knife had begun to fall, after the last earnings, and that big bond deal. I just recently initiated a short at 45. I thought it was a dead cat bounce to there, with 48-50 being the downside (for my short) risk. Obviously I was wrong. I boxed my position yesterday at 49 1/2, and added to the short (and long) today at 52.

So I'm down 4.5 points, and currently boxed, waiting for the squeeze to end. I won't unbox until I see under 50. If that doesn't happen in the next month, I'll cut and run.
