No matter how much people like sayrep and Pete rattle on about Bob, the exogenous events that affect his call IMO are his subscription rates, his ego and his rude personality.

A glimmer, from thestreet.com:

Bullish sentiment fell to its lowest level since Oct. 15, 1998. Interestingly, the low bullish sentiment in October 1998 was recorded at the peak of the turmoil in Asia ("Asian Contagion") and just as the stock market in the U.S. reached a bottom. Bearish sentiment, meanwhile, shot up in the latest period, coming in at 38.6%. Investors who consider themselves neutral fell from last week to 35.1%.

Bill

My take from here is that there is another Federal Reserve cut of a 1/2 point between now and the next meeting in March and with all this cash on the sidelines the financial markets will stage an explosive rally going forward because of the cumulative effect of all the cuts thus far. I still maintain these rate cuts are Rocket Fuel for a market blast-off and I will until I am down to my last invested dollar.

Re: "Does anyone feel capitulation yet?"

No.

Re: "Have all but the strongest hands been rattled?"

No.

Re: "Could Bob's earlier CTR call been affected by "exogenous events" such as the wacky presidential election outcome and the California energy crisis?"

Yes, it was.

Re: "It's hard to imagine the psychology of a CTR from here up to QQQ 80 or 90, followed by an even more precipitous drop than that of the last few months."

I agree.

Best wishes,

I2
