I must agree. People will continue to get excited for a little while about DELL and the internets and a few others, but the rest ain't goin nowhere fast.

rrman - please differentiate between my view and those of Mr. Sixpack Market goes only up. My point in the latest posts was that there is a strong buying bias from Mr. Sixpack and the longs and shorts will get wiped in both direction. As a result an air pocket is growing below those market prices which will mitigate a crash. As to my assesment you have presently two forces in the market - the 401K and pension contributions buying and many pros selling - e.g. distribution. and to clarify my point + or - 100 DJ points is still neutral in my book as it is only around 1% In one of my previous post suggested to sell calls and collect the premium.
