GVT: I am glad to hear you subscribe to Barrons. That would explain your faith in it. Over the 30 yrs. of my investment life they have been rarely correct and then only because everyone else already knew or on the theory that even a broken clock is correct 2x a day. JFD

GVT,

The main reason I subscribe to Barron's is that it gives me a good window into what is the mainstream thinking on Wall St. The quality of the opinion doesn't really enter into the equation for me.

Mainstream Wall St. thinking is hardly what I would call the theme in Barron's . Abelson has basically missed this bullmarket IMHO , which is ok if your not following their thinking, but why then are you buying the paper. Perhaps as a contrary indicator?
