"Short term OK if you're in the right stocks. Our best guess at the moment is some more shorter-term strength, but very narrow in terms of participation. If you're in the wrong stocks you will not do well. Afterwards, we think we will see more correction back to 8,000-8,400." Michael Burke
I missed Tom's appearance on CNBC this morning for the 2nd time in a row. Would someone be kind enough to summarize Tom's thoughts and stock commentary and post on our board. Thanks in advance.
