Interesting thesis, wanmore. Perhaps you're right.
But I doubt this thread is a proxy for the market as
a whole. SI is a skewed sample of the overall investment
public. When I do my own polls, it seems to me that
the public at-large is complacent and not bearish
at all. So I think the true-bear view expressed here
remains a contrarian position. We'll see soon enough.

Some of the bearish types I have seen this weekend remind me of the AOL longs at 175 this spring. They're still waiting for their upcrash.

Yesterday before SI blew up, on the hot list: MDA, Kahuna A Myth, Millennium Crash.

I think you're right in your thesis.

wanmore,
I think the interest rates/bond yield
climate is entirely different
from the last year. Both stocks AND
rates are up, considerably. Cash is
much better now than stocks.

You post makes good sense... I think Abby may also be right about her 9300 year end level, but I think we could see the DOW rise up to 9300 from 8500 where I believe we're now heading.....

<<I agree that this market is overvalued, out of control,>>

I am not sure I can agree that a generalization is proper here. Only certain sectors are overvalued along with the handful of stocks that are pumped to keep the indexes going.
