In all the polls, the BP indexes, the cots and especially the Rydex funds...but as always this is just my humble opinion as a trader. If I was a buy and hold long term investor, there might be some temptation to try to buy "the bottom" but that can be lethal in a bear market. Which I believe this still is, at least in the nasdaq. And people around my town are talking about getting back in soon for the big spring rally <g> Actually heard on line at my local food market the other day. Scary. SI does not count, we are educated <g> The bearish divergences I am seeing are on the charts... hard to explain, it just comes from being a chartaholic who looks at chart patterns going way back. Wouldn't be surprised at one more blast to the upside to suck in buyers before everyone finally realizes earnings are not going to skyrocket in the next quarter... Without the difference in the opinions between bulls and bears there would not be such a tradeable market. So as long as the battle between both sides continues, we can make a good living off of it.

"I am reading bearish posts everywhere." Lots of bearishness, or at least non-bullishness, on TV and elsewhere, too: Lots of renewed worry about a "W" recovery, almost a consensus about valuations being stretched. I checked out WSW to see how Lou reacted to getting axed - he had a lot to say. His guest, ML's bearish chief US strategist argued that CASH would offer good competition to equities this year. On CNN Ned Riley tried to justify his typically bullish perspective on techs as a contrarian call: He made the Qs one of his two top picks, and said he liked being there when everyone on Wall Street hated the Nasdaq, and when every tech stock that made a slight move up immediately got downgraded.
