Hey Scott, >Whether attempting to define the market elements requisite for a top or a bottom, predictions for such events are notorious and, virtually without fail, wrong.<

But you must admit at the time the predictions are made they sound authoritative and rational.<G> Some of the predictions made could well be right. Our job is to determine which ones - ahead of time.

Scott,
I agree with you 100% about timing. However, I am in Cary's position-- fully invested as i want to be but willing to risk more at certain super bargain levels. My gut tells me Cary's numbers will not be hit but I will use them as guidance if we have a violent week in the market below 2k nasdaq. I rememer the weak the markets turned in 1998 and the one day bargain prices that never were hit again, at least until now. I remember correctly some stocks were down 5 and closed the day up 5. mike
