I think trading is going to be a lot more difficult this year. Gains won't be like last year and I really don't like the outlook of higher rates with stocks still making higher highs. However, if the DJBB does give us some hope I'll feel better about it. I think the expectations of the market are way out of whack, 20% gains seem so minimal when 5 years ago a 20% gain was worth celebrating. People will have to work harder this year for it and it might smack some back into reality.
