I find those letters amusing and disturbing at the same time>>> amazing complacency, that happens after long trends, they are nervous or resistant about the trend for a long time, just before the trend finally changes the crowd capitulates, and remains on the wrong side of the market for a long time. the market is diabolical -g- the bull market has been in place since 1974, but the majority of investors have climbed on board in the last five or ten years, your everyday doods had a healthy fear of stocks only a decade ago, that was already way off the 1974 lows. the people that are calling a bottom or saying you should average down, have ST financial memory and don't have a perspective of bear markets past, even some of em have been through em. once the parabolic trend has been broken you get out, the parabolic trend of the dow and snp has been broken, the charts are saying this time is different.

I got one from Paine Webber. I am assuming you are not interested in the "STAY THE COURSE" advice I read in my Louis Rukeyser Newsletter? :) <H>

Re Long-Term Buy and Hold: Although there's an issue right now about whether most LTBH investors will hold on, there's also a longer term, demographics-based matter to consider in the years ahead. I've found that the # of 60yr olds is crucial to SM performance. When they get scared out of the Market, most of them never return. We've passed the 30's trough in births (+60yrs) and will eventually have to deal with that huge post-war (45-47) uptrend in births. I project the final Market high in or near 2005.
