don, please explain why bob says he deals in probabilities then. probabilities entail a little liuck, my friend. even bob won't dispute this. if i call heads and it comes up heads am i just good? according to you i ought to be insulted if it was said i was lucky ;-) as i said, in bull markets of this magnitude - ANY POINT IS A BUYING OPPORTUNITY. pullbacks occur and they are buying opportunities too. sorry if you think bob has some kind of mystical powers to see the future... geez, since bob wasn't lucky then he should've recommended mortgaging the house, maxing all the credit cards, stealing your nieces birthday money, etc and plunking it down at dow 2850 in 1991. see how ridiculous that sounds. but if he KNEW - AND THERE WAS NO LUCK - then it would be a no brainer. see how silly your "logic" is? bob has been OUTSTANDING FOR AT LEAST 6-7 YEARS. AWSOME. FANTASTIC. COULDN'T IMAGINE DOING BETTER IN THE SAME TIME FRAME. however, this is about the future - not the past. make no mistake, the 1998 markets are nothing like the 1991 and 1992 markets. his skills may be as valuable in this different environment or they may not be. just don't get complacent.

InCorrect Don! <<Now that is truly amazing luck for any one person to have plus his all out buy signal at Dow 2365 in Oct. 1990>> Bob did NOT have an all out buy signal at Dow 2365. You have stated this now on more than one occasion. That is a misstatement of the facts. See my post #6028 on this thread. Once more for the record 55% in the US, 30% in Europe and 15% in money market funds (10/90). No all out buy signal was given at that time. Those are the facts.
