Tippet; I've just got more stronger since last Sunday..as Last Sunday is when I called the market down..went the rest of the way cash Monday..the Wed I saw the tick down but index going up and asked others if they saw it as it as an ill omen..Friday I was kicking my butt for not having jumped short Wed.. --------------------- It's been more than a couple days since I changed tune.. But I was up untill Friday two weeks ago buying the heck out of dips. --------------------- Last Sunday at the end of post 16874 this was my slant. " I finished looking inside the Dow index and took it back..we are on thin ice..but I don't see any way to make any calls with any conviction..and think it's just a time to watch closely I'm still in the buy the dips..and be ready to exit fast.. right now it's more a stock pickers market than a market timers.. I will back off that slightly positive thingy in my last post..just because Barron's says up week, I'll say down week.. but after Monday.. The ice is still a little thin. Jim " Wed I got more convition , By Friday I was blowing the whistle we are going down. Now I'm not calling a BK..and I don't think any one can call them, but if we have one it'll be after the market has trended down some..so I sure ain't going to be long in a down trend. Why did Buffet sell bonds Thursday ? It was on TV but I can't find anything on the net about it.' Jim
