Paulo; My magic ten are all down today, not one gainer.. so PG wasn't alone. Now we have to ask are we oversold, as some say , or is this becoming a down trend ? ----------- The overall picture is not a bright one going forward, with housing starts up about the only good news. They say consumer spending is still strong, but is that coming from profits made in the market ? ----------- The oil companies want to push up oil prices, and Greenspams friends what him to push up interest rates. Either one will put more pressure on the overall market. --------- Like Bonnie I see some overlooked bargains down stream value wise & P/E wise, but no one is buying them, so what good is a value if it don't go up, but just gets cheaper. ------------ Short term it may do anything but it looks like that 10000 Dow most people saw in Feb, by year end is going to have a hard time. --------------- Here are in my opinion some to watch, and as a group if they fall from where we are now the down trend is on us. ------------- GE , KO , WMT, JNJ, IBM, TRV, AXP, MCD, & GM. they are all Dow components and after looking over the group I think the above better hold their average as they appear to hold the critical key right now. -------------------- quote.yahoo.com has also broke below her 50 DMA for the first time this year. -------------------- I may not get my small cap rally this time.
