Well that isn't bad at all. It was always important to me to be able to sleep all night w/o worrying about the market. Maybe I was to conservative.<ng> But a 6 month horizon brings us to Sep-Oct timeline. We've been there and done that before. you could be right. The only things that scares me about this rally is that it was pre-ordained for one and if the rally really takes off huge inflation comes alot sooner than believed. Hello Iceland!

i was listening to a BTV talking head in a state of RAPTURE going over all the WUNDERBAR words Lewis/Pandit and Dimon were pouring out--she was BEAMING, lapping up the words like a thirsty dog in August. And then Kathleen Hayes comes on and says let's get some balance here and started an interview with Josh Rosner of Graham Fisher(he is banking specialist). Kathleen said what do think of what these fellows are saying and he laughed, he said it was like someone with TERMINAL CANCER saying well this particular day isn't bad. He said any reasonable/rational person knows the bottom for these banks are not in as they have brutal headwinds ahead. Kathleen said "Not everybody agrees with that" and Rosner said "I said ANY reasonable/rational person". Love it!:) 92% of the gain today in the SPX500, as of now, is from the financials(up 6.xx%) . IOWs, this rally does NOT have breadth and has been driven by a well orchestrated BS campaign by these crooks to get a short squeeze going. These crooks that the government are trying desperately to splatter with perfume so the stink they carry with them does not make people puke. A lady on BTV, named Popper, the rapturous one, said these bankers are not crooks, but like Dimon and Lewis stated that they are just hard working decent/honest people, and we give bonuses to them because we don't want to lose thjese examplary people. This i see as a mass propaganda campaign to 'win back the peoples trust', but i think most people are going "Gag Me!". Max
