Here's something to think about calling bottom: That is probably about the hundredth time in the last hundred days where folks have decided we must have hit bottom again. We "tested the level" from the Federal Open Market Committee, buyers came in and I'm sure some shorts were forced to cover. They'll probably try to have a rally tomorrow. But let me repeat this in no uncertain terms: we cannot have a real bottom until we get a serious flush that instills panic and folks stop asking if it's a bottom. siliconinvestor.com

AS .. I don't understand you at all ... "And it's not only disghonest but it hurts our country and our economy." Could you explain this ??? It is my understanding that shorting provides liquidity in the market. What is dishonest and and hurtful to our country ??? "I won't listen to that kind of talk again as it cost me a couple of nice trades this afternoon." If you have ANY conviction in what you post, why would you listen to someone who is short ? Sounds to me that you don't even have the conviction of what you post. Personally, I believe this short vs. long arguement is ridiculous .... I learn from people who are long and people who are short .. and then I make MY decisions and never pass the buck to someone else. You have been posting that LU was a steal since it was 40, now what have I learned from that?
