Both Bob and "Her Ladyship" appear to be in the same Bullish camp as the 51% of investment advisors in the Investors Intelligence Survey this past week which reported only 19.8% of advisors are bearish. That 51% represents 72% of Bulls plus Bears by my calculation. Bob has warned previously that it is a danger sign when the percentage exceed 70% which it does. I remember Bob saying on his radio show that while he "expects a significantly positive year" 2009, he was not predicting it would be straight up without any drops during the remainder of the year. (That's a pretty safe bet, eh? How can that prediction be wrong?) Bob used to brag about how he liked his predictions to be amongst the minority of advisors - the more he appeared out on a limp, the better. It looks like at this point he is failing in that objective. So maybe both Bob and Sy have a chance at having been correct in their predictions for 2009. Time frames are critical and time will tell. P
