I agree that the absolutely extraordinary run we've had since March suggests caution and that increasing optimism would be a danger sign. Speaking just for myself I want to make sure that I don't fall into the February 2000 trap of convincing myself that I had suddenly become an investing genius. My current portfolio is pretty boring, and that's fine with me. I hope it stays boring.

Needless to say, while I can go along with Jim part of the way on a directional basis--in the sense that I do agree we are recovering from a spider hole collapse--I fail to see how the debt levels do not act as a chronic restraint on the economy. Not to mention that we birthed and bought stuff for those whom we birthed since 2000 based on a phantom economic expansion.

Does Grant surprise you?
