No where does it say stock must go down forever and the economy must go to hell for an extended time. I keep looking, I can't find it. It takes a special mind set to be negative as a way of life, but that overwhelmingly is not the norm, the die hard shorts fail to see that they are out numbered. Granted, we are in a vacuum right now where stocks are getting the benefit of the doubt, and we could get some very sobering negative news and the bearishness could build again, like it has so many times before. If you look back and the past year nearly every single recovery was based largely on an over sold condition, this time we are getting hints that resolution to the problems that have faced the market are being taken care of. This rally will be tested, as it should be, but recovering from the test will only feed the bullishness. Longer this rally goes on the longer the shorts will be confused. Frankly I would love nothing more then have then get bold again and start selling into the rally, and to rush on any weakness, only to be crushed with news that it's not so bad from the likes of CSCO. Watch MSFT and the PC sector, if they are able to build on the recovery from the first of the year the rest of the market will be following along. Like I said, it's time to build an nice port with an eye to the longer term, and to accept the volatility. B
