heinz, >>put/call ratios were high today for the second day in a row...that suggests a low is near in time...though not necessarily in price. I read somewhere long ago that these ratios inverse in bear markets, like we have been looking at low ratios for long periods in this bull market you should see high ratios for long periods in a bear market. BWDIK, Joan

hb, if James Grant shows up on the talk shows sunday, buy calls Monday morning. It's my favorite indicator. <G> I love Grant, but by the time the Producers get around to calling him, we're due for a bounce. <G>

HB, this was written 1/31/00 (aka market psychology) With all the speculation as to which way the markets would go I thought I'd check out what the planets had to say. They've always been reliable indicators as to human affairs and I thought I'd apply it to the topic at hand. (And no, I'm not about to debate the merits/validity of astrology. Much like Y2k you either GI or you don't!) It took a little bit of digging but I found the origination date of the NASDAQ (February 8, 1971) and cast a chart. Now the first thing that jumped out at me is what's called the Saturn Return. My initial reaction was "This puppy's goin' DOWN!" Now let me explain why... Saturn is a planet known for loss, limitation, hardship and difficulty. Every 29 years or so it completes its cycle and ends up where it started and a new cycle begins. In human situations this generally creates a drastic change of events. If you look back, sometime between the ages of 28 - 30 something happened to you to knock you off course and send you in an entirely new direction, dratically changing the status quo and your worldview in the process. Perhaps it was a marriage, the start of a new business, a move to a new city, a new job, an accident or illness...whatever it was, it was BIG (and not necessarily an easy transition. Saturn has a way of knocking you up-side the head if you're not paying attention and it can be kick-ass when it needs to be.) Now these same principles can be applied to the NASDAQ as well, which is why I said this critter is going to fall off its pedestal and take a nosedive. It can't be helped. There will undoubtedly be a drastic change in its direction, especially since Saturn is considered one of the key players in financial astrology. This Saturn Return (difficult change in direction)is occuring in the chart's 1st house, representative of "image", and in the sign of Taurus, whose keyword is "productivity". If you connect the dots you can get a picture portraying "a difficult change of direction affecting productivity and creating a negative image." Can you say "crash"? "WHEN?" you might ask. Well, Saturn will complete its cycle during the first two weeks of April. The effects are in play right now and the influence will continue to be felt for months afterwards. The "trigger", however, will be Mars (energy, action, aggression) when it joins up with the natal Saturn on Friday April 14th. Kapow! But the real kicker is Uranus (unpredictable, explosive, change) triggering the Sun (focus) in the 11th house of "the public", giving Joe Sixpack a rude awakening, as it completely takes him by surprise. So according to the signs in the heavens there is no doubt (in MY mind anyway) that Bubble.com is going to burst in the months to come. But we already knew that, didn't we? ;-) -- LunaC (LunaC@LunaC.com), January 31, 2000 hv.greenspun.com
