There you are. This is an example of my "wrong" streak. Now, everything is trying to overwhelm the COMP.

Hi Bear, I'm not able to recall a time period when the market does really good in the first few weeks of April. There are a lot of people who like to skimp om the qurterly estimate and pay a fine for not paying enough in taxes quarterly. I'm a serial abbusr to pay more early. I like to work the money and the fine is at a very low rate so even dividends beat the penalty. With a big gain in February (selling off BRKS), I had to pony up. None the less, I got my tax bill due today, and I've got to tap my account between now and the 18th. I think a lot of procrastinators like myself, get a bit conservative on buying more, and have to take out some purchasing power to pay Uncle Sam. That's really just me, but I don't think I'm alone. Cohu is in the red most opens, and slowly recovers, market maker is dipping his nets for some cheap stock. I think we're about over this funk. A very strong surprising Impulsive wave is coming. It will be one for the records and go parabolic as it more than makes up for inflation. The GOGO's of last year will tease at new highs and mask their broad distribution, which will mark them as heavy over valued shares. When they deplode, it will take the market indexes with everything - its called forced selling and then the little guy has margin calls. Then we'll be barraged with bad surprises, credit problems and weak IPO's go belly up quickly. Then the long wait will grind everyone's patience. I want to have a lot of cash by then. Did you see the nice 57 Corvette on BAT sell for $60,500. Just a nice driver, but it needed $10,000 to $15,000 in little things for a frame on clean up. My wife made me wear cotton gloves the last 10 minutes of bidding. <smile> Bob
