M2: You are funny! My sense is that you correctomundo as usual. We may take a breather here for a bit, but I really do think we're going to need to see a few more big volume down days before we reach a bottom and begin to base. Everyone knows (in their hearts <ggg>) that the Market is not going to "crash." There are too many safeguards in place for that to happen and the fundamentals don't support the crash scenario. This is a plain old correction. The problem as I see it at the moment is that because people know that, they are just toooo complacent for it to be over. It's not that there's no capitulation - there's NO FEAR at all. K

M2: I'll reply to your "Fantasyland" (otherwise known as the CPQ Thread) post from over here. Like the bond pits, the "SOs" are sprouting like so many psilocybe shrooms as CPQ gets smaller and smaller . . . Yeah, I heard the DELL news - not good for CPQ no matter how you slice it. Well, this should be quite a week - ECI, ERs, etc. PFE just got a MAJOR DOWNGRADE from PWJ so there goes that BO. I see a trend going here where when any stock that's always been a great performer has a BO in hand, someone comes out with some bad news that knocks it down - IBM, INTC, DELL, WCOM, LU, etc. The list goes on. To me, this means that this corx ain't over yet. We just took a breather last week. Stocks don't go straight up and they don't go straight down, but the trend in the Market is definitely down when great news causes only a momentary pop then a fizzle, good news makes the stock go down and bad news makes it fall off a cliff.
