"Her vocalization is always inversely proportional to the valuation of her portfolio." Now how would you know that, Voltaire? So much for "no hard feelings", hmmm? Enjoy the rally. I know I will.

tom.....i'm not a believer in the esoteric, but am an over thirty year student of the market, especially options.... however, we tend to come to similar conclusions..... i view most of these threads as contra indicators....just look at the beloved "glee club".....sometimes difficult to go against the grain, but easy to ride the "true wave" i went to cash early this year before the carnage...this is documented.... i've taken positions (actually backed into them via short put assignments) recently in qcom, atml, rmbs....in fact just got assignment calls this morning...which to me is tantamount to the other trader short covering.... the bottom is near, albeit due to inherent huge liquidity, volatility will prevail.... too much "real money" on the side lines not earning the returns that keep the fund managers working....it will return, the question is when.... if an investor "fears", then he shouldn't invest....fear is an emotion that equals "betting with scared money"
