Bob, good post. I agree with you particularly in regard to people seeing what they want to see. Its a tough habbit to break and many aren't even aware they do it. I always make a conscious effort to try to evaluate all possible outcomes of a given trade - the expected and the unexpected. Its easy to jump to a conclusion and go with it. The real work is not in determining what is right with your analysis, but in determining what could go wrong with your analysis.

Robert, I've read your post with interest, being relatively new to stock investing, I would very much like to learn more about how to recognize the signs of an up-coming market correction. Maybe you could share your knowledge and help a few of us avoid being caught in a major correction and 'blame it on the stock market ', just out of lack of seeing a rational obvious reason.
