You know...we should all be paying attention to that line....a lot of attention... Then again, are we correcting the Nasdaq run since 1991, or are we correction the Nasdaq run since 1982 (when most believe the overall bull started)...if the latter, maybe we need to find support line from 1982....I think most bears think we are correcting the entire bull run here since 82'... One thing's for sure, if we break that 1990 line, that should bring a bit of...shall we say....worry.

With all this talk of sentiment readings and contrarian indicators, I am more interested in historical benchmarks like PE ratios and Book Value measures during previous bottoms. A previous link showed a PE of 6 or 7 during the 1982 bottom. I wonder if there are any journalists that might want to write an article (or know where we could find such info) on present metrics like PE etc. <vbg>
