That's brave! With Analysts still cutting estimates including LB cutting by more than 1/2 for the current Q, wouldn't you expect price to keep falling until there's some earnings visibility? ... or at least the estimates stabilize?

The Conference Board today reported that consumer confidence rose to 117.0 from 109.2 last month, touching off a rally in the markets. This follows the University of Michigan's mid-month report on its consumer sentiment index in March, which showed a slight increase to 91.8, from 90.6 at month end February. As consolation to the bears, today's strong showing may somewhat dampen Greenspan's enthusiasm to cut interest rates ahead of the May FOMC meeting. Greenspan served on the Board of Trustees of the Conference Board for 5 years.

What does the Conference Board indicator measure?

And how is it different from the University of Michigan Index of Consumer Sentiment?

I just knew you would want to know. ;-)
