OT- Thanks Flack. It amuses me to see the usual suspects (pundits) on CNBC over and over. Almost always bulls with perpetual rahrahrah talk. Bill quit doing CNBC probably about 2 years ago because it became more trouble than it was worth, I think. I remember him being quite rudely treated by Joe Kernon for his negative outlook on chips and box makers. Joe Batapaglia used to dominate the time of any "bull vs bear" feature and I guess it made for good TV. I was always impressed by Bill's resistance to use sarcasm or say snide things in retort to the some of the nonsense that was thrown his way. (truth is such retorts would be very typical of the way he really thinks). He basically was pretty gentlemanly and reserved. Now he has more facts on his side. FWIW, his was always a FA view of the markets rather than TA, and the fact that he was upside down for a long time might point to the relative power of TA. I wish his "market rap" was still available on SI but he does have a pay-site. He has offered me free access but I just haven't gotten around to it. It's getting to be time. I will relay your right on greetings!
