"I think we'll need one more good push up"

I agree and I think we'll get it. It's been a great bear-market rally so far.

(The divergences told all: Message 18080592 )

As noted earlier, it's especially hard to call tops on bear market countertrend rallies. I'm not going to try to pick a top on the Naz, but I have my eye on a number for the Dow: 9100.

If there's interest, I'll be glad to explain why 9100 looks so good to me. If we get there, I'm going in long on cheap DIA otm puts -- some for November (if the market tanks after the election as I think it will, these will pay off nicely!) and some farther out, maybe as far as June 2003.

I'm betting on Dow 5000. If the Dow hits a post-election 9100 (or even 9400!?) on a crazy surge of rookie short-covering and manic rally-chasing, these puts are going to be a steal!
