>> I think 'money on the sidelines' means it's not in stocks. Gottfried, But how does the "sideline money" ever increase or decrease ? If I sell stocks today and move my money to the sidelines, it means someone else took the same amount from the sidelines to pay for the stock she bought. And the money on the sidelines stays constant. Besides, it is not possible for money to be "not in stocks". If I take my money out of the market, it can only be done by selling the stock to someone else. And then his money will be in the market. So in the aggregate, nothing changes. Sarmad
