you are implicitly assuming the move in the euro is "correct". currency markets are no smarter than your "dumb as a brick" equity markets.

There's 3 things that drive bull markets. Liquidity, liquidity. and liquidity. I'm bullish because the market's being reliquified. The last 2 1/2 years have had a flow of funds problem. That's changed big time. Record levels of money are hiding in money-market funds. That's very bullish, because when it got high in the past, the market always took off. In '82 it was 22 percent and that started a big bull run. In '91 it was 17 percent -- and we went up 80 percent that year. And now it's 27 percent -- a record high. There's lot of money to fuel this market. The average investor, it's going to take them a long time to come back in. But already, the dividend yields in the Dow or S&P are at or near where Treasury securities are. So you get the dividend yield and maybe some potential appreciation through stock investing. You're tunneled visioned by virtue of the fact you focus on tech. There's plenty of other places to throw money at so I remain positive. Just one man's opinion, we shall see.
