All the best with that. Wthdik. Down from here is still a distant second choice for me. Sure, a good couple of days of going down, which I don't see today, and my tune wil adjust. For now, I drone the same song -- NDX 1162 minimum.

John, here's a 90.47% nudge for you
as I know you're a history buff.

From Aaron Task tonight @ thestreet.com quoting Rainsford Yang:

"On Monday , I referred to the recent spike in bullishness in the American Association of Individual Investors' survey. As of April 24, bullishness had risen to 63% from 46.3% the prior week.

I hinted that such a leap in retail bullishness could be a sign of a pending market retreat. Supporting evidence arrived Tuesday, courtesy of Rainsford Yang of Astrikos.com, a Web site dedicated to market timing.

Since 1991, the AAII bullishness has risen above 55% in the same week in which the S&P 500 rallied 21 times; that's prior to last week, when it also turned the trick. In 19 of those previous 21 occasions, the S&P reversed course and posted a lower weekly close within two weeks, Yang reported. 'While small investors can keep the market on an upward course for a week or so, they don't have the kind of firepower that typically leads to lasting rallies.'

And often, those small investors get excited at just the wrong time."
