And surprize, surprize, all the broker stocks skyrocket into the Goldman IPO lockup termination. And JPM reits their buy on GS right in the thick of it. Wear a condom around these guys. Tim

<<The end of this mania will surprise everyone.>> Undoubtedly. But it doesn't look as if it's going to happen in the very near-term. I agree about the tech stocks, but there's an upside to that also. It doesn't take very much distribution in the mega-cap techs to unleash a significant amount of buying power through (relatively) smaller caps.

Haim, when will there be no shorts left to cover? I agree with your interpretation of today's numbers. Unfortunately the market (the only interpretation that counts) would rather hear the "better that expected" spin than analyze the numbers. I've had it with this "better than expected" cr*p - from bogus earnings, cooked government economic numbers and depositions from our scumbag in chief , its everywhere... I guess if the commies could do it for decades so can we - its part of the "new era".
