C'mon when was the last time you saw a bullish guest on tech stocks in general Well there was that guy Balentine who was on the morning after the Intel warning who said he couldn't understand how Intel's troubles could be construed as bad news for boxmakers. There's also the bald headed guy (Froehlich?) who is mostly bullish on tech and the Nordic looking fellow (Eric something) who seems to have never met a tech stock he didn't like. Mike Holland will be on tomorrow, and he should also be giving out warm fuzzys to those that need them. The truth is that CNBC is much more biased towards the bulls. People willing to say bad things about a stock are generally not invited, or not invited back. Olstein seems to have disappeared permanently. And while I'm not an unabashed Fleckenstein fan, he's clearly more qualified than many of the bozos who are called on to guest host, but I doubt you'll ever see him there. What we've seen is a slight reduction in the unabashed cheerleading. It's hard to get as excited when the team is down a few hundred points.
