PC,

>>It's all mass conspiracy.<<

I hope you realize that everyone from CNBC (advertising dollars and viewership), options holding executives (compensation), Wall St.(deals, commissions, fees, trading profits), the general public (obvious), politicians (tax revenues), AG.com (reputation), and bankers (loans), have a vested interested in keeping this market at its lofty heights or growing larger. I know you were jesting and poking fun at us bears, but even though there is no coordinated effort to rig the damn thing, there might as well be. They're even retiring bearish strategists these days. I'd just like a little more balance in actions, words, and deeds. Warren Buffett in not as bearish in his public views as I am, but I have no problem with him because his views are not spun or designed to make a specific case. They are clearly honest in facts and presentation. I find the differences between vested interests and non-vested interests quite revealing.
