The average expansion doesnt last 11 years nor does the average Bull market last 20. so The bear should be a litlle longer.

Really? I am curious, as I am still bothered with historic price to earnings ratios and price to dividend ratios in this market, curious as to how one can justify CSCO with a pe of 60+ and GE a pe of 40+...as if there is some magic turnaround written in stone at 2000, 2450, (pick a number). This still looks like buy on the dip is buying into bubblemania to me. Earnings in retail and computers is likely to be ugly this holiday season, if we are to trust the comments on CNBC and Bloomberg news. Thanks in advance for your comments. Jim Black
