Ditto.. Just Follow the Boomer Life Cycle - Cannot Go Wrong! And for now and next 8 years that cycle is zeroing in on investing for retirement.. I predicted Nasdaq 6500 by year-end on April 17th.. >><<

>>>>>The bull market will last another 8 years aided by the baby boomers retirement spending<<<<< Please show me your research that makes this statement valid. I want to know when the trend is expected to peak and what evidence you have to suggest that the flow of investment dollars will go into stocks. What evidence do you have that gives a clear pattern that will dictate Baby Boomer investment decisions after a prolonged market downtrend? Make sure you clarify what the richest 5% plan to do to diversify away from the one-stock wealth plan. How will this diversification affect dealer trading habits with low volume? Or do you assume that the million or so individuals with multi-million portfolio's largely the result of options in a single company will simply never sell...ever...? Wow, you are an angle and an optimist. I am rather cynical as to what the Baby boomers will do to protect their wealth. The 'me' generation who engineered corporate restructuring and rapid inflation of executive pay, they seem pretty self-serving and ruthless to me. Not a problem I rode the train up. Hey only a fool holds out for the last dollar. (Joe Kennedy, 1928)

I am very willing to pay for high multiples afforded the teck(Mobile, wireless, internet, appliances)evolution, as long as the company's revenues in my portfolio are growing over 50% yearly. I see the NASDAQ at least 5500 by year end,imo.The bull market will last another 8 years aided by the baby boomers retirement spending, and the current communication evolution worldwide. So, at 50% growth YoY, in eight years the companies in your portfolio would earn 25 times what they earn today. And the Naz would be at about 140,000. And a 100B cap company would be a 2.5T cap company. CSCO would be 12T. Double today's GDP. Sounds a bit extended.
