Oh, I do wish he would be quiet ... good grief. He is going to cause rally and I never should have signed up for a free trial there -- it's a constant stream of e-mail trying to get me to buy his book.

nice to note at least that the author is very, very skeptical >>Without intending to cast aspersions, it seems that these big-wave theories seem to appeal more to well-meaning eggheads than to demonstrably successful investors. World-altering economic and psychosocial patterns are easier to observe in retrospect than to forecast. The mathematical certainty that appears to attend cyclical waves in the past tend to dissolve into uncertain subjectivity in the present. The present does seem unusually murky, however, as the market's two-year decline is regularly peppered with soured rallies. Perhaps these are the times foreseen by the great American philosopher Yogi Berra, who once said, "When you come to a fork in the road, take it." To intersect equally with Prechter, Berra and your own natural optimism, consider hedging your long positions in stocks, indexes or funds with a handful of names to bet against just in case the waves of doom really are crashing on America's sunny shores. Here is a list of 10 stocks to consider selling short based strictly on their low rankings in our StockScouter rating system. <<
