What are you going to say to them before it happens? And after? "As surely as God made little sheep, they shall be fleeced." HEY BUDDY! I DIDN'T MAKE THEM BUY INTO A BUBBLE! GOT IT???? I'm sorry, son. There are people who insist on getting screwed. Nothing you or I can do about it. For now, I will stay in the stock market, but I am watching real estate very closely. You need NOT watch now. You'll get the word when the crash comes. BTW, you get an A+ in brains.

The stock market for growth stocks is actually pretty good right now, even though the economy for these same companies isn't great because there are so few speculative players in this market, its pretty easy pickins I think. Bill Harmond has this stock he follows (UNA). They had a great quarter last time around, and after hours after the earnings release the stock was up .05 or something on 100 shares I think. You could have bought after hours, knowing they had a blowout, and made 10% the next day. The same exact thing happened to the same stock today. There are lots of situations like that. Shorts aren't as easy as longs now, except probably the homebuilders, at least for me.
