just a note on FedFundRate and GreenKidney monetary policy yes, same story... the Fed is STILL HITTING THE BRAKES the 3-month Treasury Bill yield is now just under 4.0% and FedFund target is 5.0% so the Fed is hitting the brakes by a full 100 basis pts !!! the economy is STILL being urged to slow down further !!! I expect some oversold springtime denial-based optimism to rise just like the daffodils and jonquils and a strange perverse rally might unfold for more than 7 hrs then reality bites hard after the news vacuum finds new equilibrium in the next 48 hours I intend to produce a list of arguments for a reflex rally shouldnt you be building a gunnite garden water cascade somewhere? / JW

Hi Scott, Long time no talk to. RE:I'm long term bull, but I think earnings disappointment momentum will keep us in a bottoming mode for a few more quarters... I couldn't agree more. We still have some more bad earnings to get through and then we need a basing period from which to go forward from. In the short term we are going to continue to see selling into any kind of a rally. For now I am staying on the sidelines. Regards, Joel
