Steve, what is your Model based on? I am cautious as well based on fundamentals but I don't see too many bearish signs. The market is very speculative right now. I have been venturing into thinly traded stocks and even OB stocks a little and the rogue trading going on there is quite incredible, just like 1999/2000. One lesson I have learned is when everybody makes money so easily there is something wrong with the market and it's better to be very careful.
Unfortunately what is different from 1999/2000 is that there are not too many value stocks available. In 2000 one could buy Allstate below at 18$ paying 5% dividend and many others, they were going down because the liquidity was sucked out of these stocks to speculate in Mo-Mo stocks. Right now I find only very little of these opportunities and this is why i hold a large cash position.
