Hi ad, you can tell when a poster comes from the "CLOWN-FREE ZONE" thread. :) On the executive warnings of no visibility: their lawyers probably encouraged them to say that. This is as it should be at this point in the cycle. What worries me more is analysts saying the stocks can't go down much more.

re: I don't know who you're referring to.

On a number of bearish threads, the word "Clown" is the newly popular synonym for "Bull". I'm noticing that, just as any bearish comment on almost any SI thread (in 1999 and 2000) was met with ridicule, we now have the opposite: any bullish comment is greeted with shrieks of, "Clown!", on many SI threads. It seems very hard for any thread to welcome both bulls and bears.
