Jorge Thanks for the article. I obviously agree with the bears since I sold all my long positions on friday when everything was rallying. I have put most of my retirment/mutual funds money out of the "growth funds" that had given me an awesome return and into federal securities funds. I am hoping to beat the "rush hour traffic" when there is a run on stocks(and consequently mutual funds). Another item that I would like to add to the list mentioned in your article was that the tense situation in the Gulf is going to create uncertainty(not that there is any doubt that US of A. is going to come out victorious in case of a showdown!). However, the stock market hates uncertainty and is likely to move lower until we have a known outcome! If the rally continues tomorrow, I am going to move the rest of my money out of the growth fund/emerging markets fund and into some ltraconservative retirement fund. The way I see it, I'd rather leave some $$s on the table than lose my gains. I am betting that cash is going to be king soon! I guess the coming weeks will tell!
