Everyone seems to think the market is going up from here. The S&P ST and MT CI's hit 100 Friday afternoon (overbought extreme). This, below, is from a link on SI's main page. Such predictions are often wrong, needless to say. (Yes: I know, scare tactics! BS!) The touchy, defensive, fanatical bulls are out in force again. Makes one wonder. Anyway, the prediction: siliconinvestor.com Week Ahead: Stocks to Rise as Mood Lifts Nov 17 7:53am ET By Chelsea Emery NEW YORK (Reuters) - Look for U.S. stocks to trade slightly higher next week as Wall Street cheers improving corporate profits, recent military successes in Afghanistan and growing optimism for an economic recovery next year.

Investors have also taken heart from surging retail sales data that shows consumers are flocking to stores -- and buying.
