TA First...I am a perma bull by heart....never shorted a stock in my life.....feel long term trend has been and should continue up. Doesnt mean there wont be some blips along the way. You seem very, very sure of yourself that the market is going up, up, up. My view is this....I have listened and dissected both sides of the coin til my blue eyes turned red from bloodshot. There are excellent points as to why we have a great year, short term included and excellent points as to why the next few months could be very, very hairy. The bootom line is...and my point is.......everybody has an opinion and not everybody will be correct. there is no way to determine what the next few months will be like. For every argument as to why you feel things will go up, two other people will give you 4 reasons as to why it will go down. And Vice versa...for every person that feels we will go down, there will be 2 people telling you why we will go up. Folks can argue this back and forth intil they have strokes...it doesnt matter. One thing this market has proven is that NOBODY can accurately predict things. My suggestion is to lets keep the banter up...lets keep hearing both sides of the coin, but lets do it in a realistic and mature manner. No need for folks to attacke each other, call each other names and etc......lets just discuss things like friends who disagree. This will allow for more concrete discussion. Anyway, This isn't directed at you...mainly folks in general. We are all smart enough to understand that each person has an opinion...naturally if that person has that opinion, he thinks that opinion is correct....thats why it's his opinion <ggg>........so lets all make friends and make believe we are at a poker table playing cards......arguing over which is prettier, the blonde or brunette, and lets here why, without insulting and attacking each other. I for one wish to hear all sides even though I am a bull...especially a jdsu bull, but I could do without the insults and name calling......way too much of that crap goes on on these message boards. This board overall seems like a very good one....I'd hate to see it fall to the level of the many other boards that have turned into forums for personall attacks rather then discussion of the stock at hand. Great weekend to all
