Peter Peter: You are beginning to annoy me! The regulars have posted it as they see it. RE-READ the post. Then we sit back and watch. None of us are perfect! If we were, none of us would bother with SI. We would just sit back and take everyone's money. EK....EVEN KEEL! Relax...Better yet, do your own work. (TA) Your bewailing is getting old! Regards, LG

Hi Peter: Actually just having read your theory, I think I prefer yours. The market indeed has a Houdini-like capability to defy death again and again. The market's fundamentals are obvious but that is not the point. It is all psychology and perception and probably a good bit of corruption. In that respect, I was astonished about some of the things Cohen was saying, since it violated elementary economics. She talked about the earnings of the S&P 500 excluding non-recurring charges. While you may justify that for individual stocks (well, arguably), you certainly cannot do that for an index. This is manipulation of numbers at its best. Cheers, Phil

To All on this thread: I sent a private apology to Peter Singleton! It is not my usual manner, to post to someone is such a manner. Regards, LG

Peter, I have another theory: You have put your money in a small-cap stock that is not doing very well. The stock's chart looks like an unmitigated disaster, but rather than admit that you may have made a mistake and sell the stock, you hide behind loonie theories, and lamely blame your misfortunes on the bears (and Republicans:) I think the recent price action with AGPH was 100% market specific, and 0% AGPH specific. If the market is correcting, then stabilizing or moving upward from here, then I think AGPH is about as cheap as you will see it... Newt Gingrich did not do this to you, and Bill Clinton is not going to bail you out, so why don't you dump the stock, and get on with your life. Good luck, PTB
