Bob,

Re: "They don't understand bonds, mutuals underperform the market, so they're buying stocks more and more - and as opposed to the 'shoeshine
boy' days, many of them actually know what a good investment is."

I disagree (not flaming though). Most individual investors are clueless as to what makes a good investment. And in my view, this has been a "momentum market" more or less, for the last 6 months. Last I checked, "momentum investing" is not related to "what a good investment is".

JMO, Teri
