Boy do I ever remember that article! I have enjoyed watching Jimmy over the years but he sure missed on that one. In my experience of watching him over the years he seems to have a slightly bearish stance. The only problem is the last 16 years has been the largest bull market in recorded history!

All that aside the market seems to be going through a correction. It's to early folks to call this a bear market. Asia could be the reason but we have to wait and see. After going through the 70's bear market the signals are different this time around.

Cool, unemotional heads will prevail in this market. IMHO this bull has more life in it yet. The intrest rate situation is completely different this time around.

Good investing to all

Eric

Please go and read up on the CEO and CFO comments on the current results. 3COM seems to be the only company that put out comments on their results by the CFO and CEO which I like very much. It's too late and I haven't read them yet.

<< I forgot to add: go back and read the Barron's roundtable for January of 1988. >>

Know where I can find it? I would be interested in reading it.

Very true. His 1987 call was remarkably accurate, though. Also, he turned quite bullish in the early 1990's, a time when most investments made during the aftermath of the '87 crash were underwater. I very much agree with your point about Buffett, Rogers, and humble pie.
