Alright Bill- I'm serving you notice! One of my New Year's Resolutions is to keep tabs on your predictions posted on this thread. I'll even try to post quarterly progress reports! Regards, Larry P.S. to Bill: Your scenario strikes me as emminently plausible.

Bill: I'm kinda in Larry's corner on this. But, your point is well taken as well - the shorter your time frame - the more likely a prediction on the market will prove out. Long term (since the end of WW II) it has been smart to be a bull and ride out the corrections. This assumes positions in top-notch growth companies, e.g., Disney, MMM, EK, BMY, JNJ, etc. Sure, it's true they have had setbacks like the general economy - but eventually have bounced back and made new highs. Those who have held truly good companies have portfolios in the six-figures. The traders and market- timers are still looking for the "holy grail" and having soup for dinner. BUT, I love to read the latest scheme to outsmart the "big boys". Sure, as Baxter said for some twenty years - "lower prices are coming"....(but that may not be the way to bet). Just my opinion "BWDIK". HNY Don a prediction on market movement will prove out. Long term
