warp I don't care who you are timing the market is just about impossible but it's fun to try all during the Tech boom I refused to buy them I kept telling myself there's too much enthusiasm we have to be near the top but yet they kept moving up my gains were half of everybody else's but my friend when the bubble burst I was not in attendance. thank God during the Tech slide I was heavy in oil services and thanks to jim p I got out right at the high rolled the money over into technology in late September sold in December and rolled it back into technology in the last couple of weeks, just mentioning the tech stocks back in September or in the the last two weeks on some sites could get your head bit off with predictions of doom and gloom, well I'm living proof that even a blinded squirrel gets a nut once in awhile, just remember that when you feel like the world is collapsing around you it probably is and it's called capitulation I find that buying at that point shutting off the computer crawling into bed and pulling the covers over my head while shaking uncontrollably usually works for me.I truly hope you and I get to rejoice in the days and weeks ahead but I'll tell you now if the market turns against us and it very well could everyone will say they told us so but we were not quiet we didn't wait until after the fact we put our money were our mouth was and that's a good thing as we may not have money left to put food in our mouths. Take care Steve
