OT> Thanks all for so many nicely thought out posts. . . and for dropping the bull vs. bear debate, etc. This board is a pleasure to read again. And when that happens we ALL win! This board is like a board room meeting. If you have something pertinent to the subject at hand, by all means. . . speak up! If you don't, or you aren't sure, it's probably best to stay quiet and listen. . .perhaps coming armed with charts or statistics to keep everyone honest. . . . until a day when you do have something pertinent to say. But if you've ever been to such meetings, there are often 1 or 2 people. . . that once they start talking, they must fall in love with the sound of their own voice. . . . but they put the rest of the meeting to sleep. . . and by the time they finish "doubly repeating their reiteration for the 3rd time" . . . the next most logical words are. . . . "so where were we?" And lately I have little to nothing to add, because each morning, instead of studying the markets like I have for a number of years. . . I am working on the website opening. And so I stay rather quiet about the markets. . . until the day returns [hopefully very soon]. . . when I may come better prepared to help enlighten others. So forgive me for staying so quiet these days. And thanks again, for keeping this board short and sweet and sharp once again. Rande Is

Exactly Max - if everyones bullish who is left to buy? There has NEVER been a bottom when there are more bulls than bears. I mean - how they hell could there be? American Spirit said in a post the other day that at peaks bulls are all lathered up (greed) and at bottoms it is the bears. That is exactly right so I cannot understand that he does not see the current reality. If investors attitudes are highly bullish (and by every measurement they are) then a bottom by definition cannot be in place. One would expect that the investor sentiment to be decidedly bearish. But besides traders here at SI the majority of the uniformed masses are wildly bullish. M
