Bottom-picking. If anyone had bought techs on Jan 3rd and held a week he would have made between 20 and 150% profit. If no one bought that day (I unfortunately didn't) it just goes to prove that we are of a herd mentality. Some say follow the herd, others say go the opposite direction. We're probably all caught in the middle somewhere. One thing's for sure. Nobody's right anywhere near all of the time. And we're all just guessimating and of course speculating. Go with your gut. What else can you do?
