What leads you to believe anybody learned anything? Mutual Funds are putting other people's money to work every day at the inflated prices we are witnessing today, in the name of predicting the future(better known as betting on the come)

What makes you think that? The only scenario in which Cisco might trade at $8 would be if we finally have a true weedout recession and a regression below the mean. I think it is possible as the current Fed action is only postponing the inevitable hangover from bubble mania, but I wonder when it will happen? I bet that the IT upcycle reasserts itself and helps us ride out any real bad recession.

P.S. For those wondering about my statements above, I don't think this recession has been real bad. It's been a minor blip relative to what it should have been to weed out the excesses of the 90's. So those excesses will either get wrung out gradually over the next decade or they will hit us with an unbelievable bang when the economy pays the Fed no mind.
