stomper....this attitude of trying to out contrarian a contrary opinion was symptomatic of the market for a decade after the 87 crash....the market has and allways will be fear driven...Few if any of the myriads of costumers i talk to in my 2 retail operations want anything to do with the stock market...a 180 from the attitudes prevalent at the recent highs...the web and its chat rooms werent around in 1987...but rest assured if there were chat rooms the attitudes about any forthcoming blastoff envisioned by anyone who dared to talk about 10000 dow when the dow was at 1600 would have been a laffing stock....deja vu eh?
