There is no doubt the stock Market has Lost it's Magic, The late 90 bubble was caused mostly by STATE Pension funds jumping from bonds into stocks in order to show a surplus. They then spent the surplus and what we will hear "after the fact" is taht the pension funds are in trouble. There are more ENE type bombs sitting around than the SEC wants to admit, and one more thing ENE can't blame September 11th for their implosion. While I feel the flags being raised about S.S. money going into the Market has a good chance of getting support and if it passes it will create the last big bubble , longer term it spells doom to the system how ever no one really cares about the longer term except those poor brain washed mullets who are naive enough to think the system is more honest than corrupt. So I'm sill of the opinion we have a 70% chance of one more stage of "irrational exuberance" before we follow the example set by Japan. Some time ago I saw 2010 as the major turning point due to demographics however we may not last taht long, as now my guess is taht big money already sees taht and will try to exit ahead of it. -------- There is no end to the greed of underwriters just look at the IPOs they rush to market every chance they get on these rallies. --------- The big dream taht everyone can retire off profits on stocks is going to become a big nightmare for millions of people before this is over. --------- There is no real wealth but the labor of man. Were the mountains of gold and the valleys of silver, the world would not be one grain of corn the richer; nor one comfort would be added to the human race. :Percy Bysshe Shelly (1792 - 1822, English writer ) Jim
