Lotsa these around today: candlestickforum.com Will be interesting to see if it ushers in a trend change. I'd welcome at least a pullback here to reduce exposure a little more. Haven't been as solidly hedged as I'd like to be, or hedged in the right places evidently. Stuck with SPX/DJIA, when I should have gotten some RUT exposure. `BC

I do so wish we had gotten down to these levels with genuine capitulation and loathing on the part of the media and general public. Instead, I see stuff like this all over the place: finance.yahoo.com "Despite the advance from its low, the blue chip index continues trading at a historically cheap price-to-earnings multiple. The Dow's current P/E multiple is just 11.6x. During the past five years the Dow averaged a price-to-earnings multiple closer to 17.3x." Do we really think that we're going to hear stocks promoted like this on Barfing.com, CNBS, the WSJ, and Barron's when the final bottom arrives? `BC
