Here's an interesting article from San Jose Mercury News today: "Investors beware: Don't be lulled by quiet in Asia"

Hi Roger,

I don't have the confidence to short this market. The views you post reflect very rational valuations but the market is past the point of looking at earnings or sales rationally. What's of immediate concern is the percentage of market letter writers (only 41% bullish) who are negative as per Investor Sentiment in Barrons; a lot of skeptics to join any rally that starts. I got some puts that I wish I had waited to buy; this blow-off may last till the next pre-announcements.

It's hard to understand the TRANS index rising; it seems to be pulling up the INDUS index.

best, art

Roger,

Check out the earnings news on BROC! I thought they were to be announced in the morning! Looks very good to me, what do you think, and were they to be announced tonight as far as you knew?
