Luc, if indeed a crash lies ahead, it may well follow the '87 and '29 precedents in the way it unfolds, which would mean an intermediate low sometime later this month, followed by a suckers' rally (last opportunity to go short) that fails to reach the highs, followed by a rapid collapse culminating in a panic low 55 days after the record high. why should it follow these precedents? mainly because collapses have a tendency to trace out similar patterns, why they would do that i have no idea. of course we might get lucky and everything collapses come tomorrow...
except it won't of course...

Bad news on the contrarian front. "Internet Stock news" was posted as a headline story on Yahoo. And it's not good news:

Big rally comin' no doubt. Crashes are a myth.
