Bonnie, you stated: "The most completely clueless people have made the most money in this market." Conversely, you are saying you have lost money in this market because you are so smart?

In this market your observation can not be more realistic.

One of my friends borrowed money (low 6 figures) at the recomandatin of his Swiss bankers and collaterized the loan with NIKKEY stocks. That was in mid July 97 I think. Well we do not discuss stock markets nowadays.

He was able to manage some nice profits in this BULL and therefore he was thinking that he figured it all out. At least to give him the credit he predicted based on his Swiss banker that the $ will rise this year and therefore his loan will decrease in dollar terms.

Happy Trading
Haim

Hi Bonnie... funny you mentioned AOL,

Last Feb when AOL was trading in the 20s... I had a firefight with many of the folk on the AOL thread who thought it was going down the tubes. I maintained it was going to 100 by the end of the year... I got laughed off the thread.

Wisht I had bought some then.
