ms queen, You are VERY mistaken if you think Brinker didn't see the sub-prime meltdown coming. He was talking about it way back when it first began when the S&P was at 1400, and he called it "brokers gone wild" -- among other things. He was talking about it all the way down this bear market, but never in relationship to the stock market until the last month or two when his oil/S&P "inverse correlation" theory blew up in his face. .

But as far as I can determine, they are either "hind-sighters," or permabears--doomsayers who were preaching their doom and gloom all through the secular bull from 1982-1999. Those people are right about once every lifetime, and this is their day in the sun.
