<< Ken, you should really read up on stock market history >> I have, oh yes. Believe me, I protect my assets. << We are at such an extreme now, and I would submit the bulls' arguments for stocks like AMZN, etc... that traditional measures of value do not apply >> I've been hearing this since 1992. While it may be true, I would have missed several figures worth of gains had I been 'scared' by this. I think a better approach is a safe, consistent investment style. I've found that investing in stocks with no (current) earnings, RAPIDLY increasing revenues pays off, as long as care is exercised. (for a portion of a portfolio) Also, the amount of negativism this stock attracts fascinates me. reminds me of IOMG in 1995. kp
