Wayne, >Have the guests and panelists been bullish or bearish lately and what are they saying abut valuations in general?

I don't watch them very often either. I have noticed a lot of the guests use the show to get a bounce in some of their loosers and sell into the strength. <ggg>

The panelists have been either neutral or bullish. Good old Gail Dudack sits in the bear camp all alone and keeps telling everyone this market is over priced. Last night she reminded the folks that a bubble is unpredictable. I do think Frank Cappiello does a good job of stock picking. The last time I heard him recommending what to do was to button down the hatches and if you had to be in stocks buy companies that will be around with a business after a correction, like oils and some high grade reits where the dividends are the least risky.

The elves are +5 bullish, but it is hard to find a technician these days that is not expecting a run for the roses at this time. The only TA person I can find that is warning at this time is Willian Hueb at SI.

Wayne,

when Julius Westheimer is on, every time in the past 3-4 years or so, he always asks " What are you selling" to the Special Guest -ng-

He has a strangle hold on that question. Although I believe that guest host Zweig, asked this question last evening.

Price-to-earnings ratios doubled in the 1980s and again in the 1990s. If they don't three-peat next decade, a lot of investors are cooked.
