From bear forum-- <<Now we see a lot of comment about how bullish the advisory services are (61% and counting) However, back in the 1960s the number went well above 65%-70% and stayed there for months while the averages crept higher. Therefore, we might consider this possibility before putting too much stock in a single statistic. In a similar vein, the "commercial" short position has been referred to as being bearish, yet the market has refused to crater in the face of that for many months now. Perhaps, this short position represents an offset to some derivative connection to the NAZ which remains a ridiculous "plaything" with plenty of air left in it. >>

There's also not nearly the stigma of default, or much worry on the part of banks to seize properties... local laws apply of course, and banks generally have no freakin clue about what to do with assets once they foreclose. Better to be a BIG borrower ala Trump and others, that way Banks are scared crapless to take all your 'stuff'... probably afraid how little is really there. DAK
