but it's normal...imo the majority of market participants hasn't yet come to the conclusion that this downturn might differ from the run-of-the-mill variety. so they work under the assumption that one should buy before the economic fundamentals turn around, which is basically correct. it isn't however if the turnaround is still a very long way away. still, the market will move in waves of alternating premature optimism and realism. i'm not even mentioning pessimism, it seems to be a largely unknown sentiment. or rather, it's been unlearned during the mania with the frequent application of the Greenboink put.
