Dr Dee. This is a little bit like watching the election results. If I were a journalist reporting the results, here is how it would be: [The following is meant to be tongue-in-cheek parody. If it hurts the feelings of any person particularly, my apologies.] With the results from 4 of the 6 continents now out, the ruling Bullwing party HITS is destined to loose the current race. However, the bulls have not given-up hope in the results from the remaining 2 continents especially from North America where the US of A, the stronghold of HITs in the last few years. An overwhelming majority of the HITS bulls expressed the opinion that the current market jitters are no more than the disinformation spread by bad-news-bears and those heartless and evil shorts. The consensus is that as long as Mrs Abby Jo. Cohen is in their camp they should not be worried about the spate of selling in the markets. Mr. Why Me Worry, a 2 month old veteran in the stock market says, "I am only 19 years old and already learned a great deal about investing and stock markets in general. Since I am going to invest for the long haul, I am not at all worried about a possible plunge today. In fact, I am in the process of making some cash withdrawl from my credit cards so that I can buy this dip." One HITS bull we talked to expressed optimism that the authorities will not keep quiet if the bad news bears and heartless shorts are going to take away the well deserved and hard earned money the HITS bulls have been making the recent years. In essence what is referring to is that may be the PPT headed by Secretary Rubin and Chairman Allan Greenspan will swing in to action and stabilize the markets. Another HITS Bull Mr. Bully Bullcrap, a right wing democrat, said that even after Bill Clinton came on national TV and dispelled the myth that market is in a bubble, it is ludicrous to think that the market is in a bubble stage. Else where on the internet, Mr. Creamer of the StreetBugger.com once more demonstrated his uncanny ability to get out at the top. Here on the SI la la land, thousands of posters thronged to the threads where Ibexyz posts to seek her wisdom in a period of tough times. She did not show-up on the threads until there was a rebound in the markets. As soon as the crowd saw her first posting of the day that said, "abc and thread, I go shopping for only the best on a day like this.." the crowd cheered and celebrated. This is MMV reporting for the Bearcounty news on SI. -MMV
