<.markets often overshoot this one has in spades.it will again on the downside too.i heard the same things in tokyo as the mkt went from 29000 to 39000 while i was short,> Oh, how sweat that was.... if you remember correctly those "NIKKEI PUTS" by Solly and Paine Webber came out the fall before the crash... I bought 'em from $5 down to $3 like a bullheaded idiot [just like you are!]... and one day they went into the 30's over a couple week span. GOD THAT WAS GREAT! Think I'll start buying S&P puts... they seem highly priced however, what do you think? DAK

This may seem overly optimistic, but I wish there was some sort of "Idiot's Guide to Investing After The Big Kahuna." I've been holding cash waiting for the BK. But if there is a BK, smart investing after BK seems to be a forgotten art.
