LG To all no one should and make investment decisions based solely on that advice, expectation or prediction I agree with your post completely, but frankly don't understand why you choose to respond to my post with those comments. I would hope that all of us on this thread, or any other, comes to the table with a firm understanding that their investment decisions should be their own. My posts on this thread are my own. And they reflect my views of the markets. Which I believe is true for most of us on this thread. Many folks believing in a new "bull leg up" was in the making may have bought into to stocks over the last couple of weeks, or even over the last few days. Anyone that bought into this logic and bought any of the leading stocks listed below over the past few weeks, or even over the last few days has found little if any profits even after today's rebound You are right. Which means that anyone that's RECENTLY turned bullish who may have been waiting for the internals of the markets to improve or for a more definitive sign to go bullish would most likely have experienced the most pain the past couple of days. However, those of us that have indicated that longer term prices were positive when the DOW was at 9000, when many were calling for a BK, have been able to withstand the overall gyrations of the past couple of weeks with profits intact. Remember the DOW has advanced 1000 pts in two weeks. So your statement is partially true because of the stocks you choose to highlight, however they do not reflect the complete picture of things. Besides, because the market is advancing does not or should not mean that you should move blindly into any stock without a clear technical read for that particular company. Each stock has it's own story to tell. So if I ran in the wrong direction with your post let me apologize in advance. However, it did sound much like a lecture. Regards SO
