In the 30's we had massive protectionism and isolationism not to mention the depression. In the 70's we had we had massive inflation, sky high interest rates and faltering productivity. Both periods there was serious economic problems relative to today's economic climate. Today, productivity is going up. Today's market risk is largely the geo-political risk and those who pay to play will be greatly rewarded. Once the double dip theory is debunked it will be fear of loss of missing the next leg up. Best Regards, J.T.

Mike I can certainly claim that the stocks I am interested in are cheap. It's all in the looking. Here are some details from early November Qrly reports taken from IBD. Qtrly earnings Up versus down as reported in IBD this past week ( Reports OCT 28 thru Nov 1 )Total companies reporting 1088. Companies Reporting Better Earnings than Previous Qtr = 683 These companies are 63% of all reports Companies Reporting weaker numbers = 405 or 37% of reporting companies. Forest or trees it's a choice we all seem to make, problem is the data, admittedly but a slice of an entire pie, says that those choosing the forest, havent even got that right.
