TRAN: I was trying to understand how the transports could be holding up so well. Here's a snap of their charts sorted in descending weighting: finance.yahoo.com finance.yahoo.com Shows that most of them are doing pretty well. Only the airlines and UPS seem to be showing any weakness at all. And given the price-weighted nature, the railroads are very heavily weighted. It's stunning to me the runs that some of these old industrial companies have had. I could kind of understand the hype surrounding new tech back in the late 1990s, but old heavy industry? Are people really collectively that dumb that they can't see these margins are unsustainable? BC
