Bottomed, Bouncing, Rally Ruby Tuesday. Remember last year? I explained in detail that the European Central Banks and the Saudi Department within the US Treasury Department would NEVER tolerate Greenspan's FED rate hikes, and this is where we are at. After the YOM KIPPUR deadline, the markets will be bullish. We are way far OVERSOLD. I am not saying I told them so, cause I was hoping it would not have been so, but it came to pass, it is, and the markets are never wrong. The FED has never fired its last two bullets, and it only has two left despite its by now obvious political bias. I for one can barely wait for new administration's NEW Treasury Department. We shall not Europeanize the 30 Year long bond. The markets will rally dramatically. That is my prediction. I am bottom fishing buying longs on CSCO, INTC, AMD, PALM, even AAPL and all the rest. A percent here or there is not worth the lost opportunity cost of missing a fast double or even tripling. I am, Truly your$, -Crystal Ball

<<this seems to me Ike a bit different than we witnessed in the last 3 years??? i don't know, it feels different here..i might be wrong... >> That is quite a statement, you have said a lot without saying too much. Basically you are seeing something a fundamental change based on which markets have reacted so far, may be it the valuations change or may be slow down of growth rate or may be a combination of slowing economy with slowing corporate earnings and all of the negatives that brings the ushering of the bear market. In my opinion classic examples of a bear market would be Nikkei or French markets in 97-87, I have been keenly observent of the phenomenons the fact is that as far as we have lower unemployment, higher productivity and non-inflationary growth with below than expected wage pressures we have no fundamental change. Yes the correction has been steep but so has been the rise, in my opinion all said and done we are Ok on M2 front, no draining of liquidity by the Feds, look at the specialists interest I see rising specialists interests a good sign and good amount of negativity, lets get this earnings right and you may see market sustaining these levels easily.. I am more than ever interested to know what happens with companies who have not warned, are they going to meet expectations as market has discounted most of the earning expectations..if companies meet expectations and show healthy momentum nothing would change if companies do not meet expectations everything will change..I agree lets see..
