Hi Bob; Well I figured some bounce, but this is not very strong, the tick really has to do a complete reversal like just getting in the positive side won't do it unless it get hits back hard. It don't have much punch , I wish it did but for now I'm staying on the side lines. I think all that spare cash I was looking at is finding it's way into bonds. In the long term that would help only if the FED drops rates, otherwise it will make the overall situation worse. Basically this system we have is not near as efficient as it's made out to be. That we were the beneficiaries of an abundance or natural resources, a lot of cheap immigrant labor, and even child labor in the past gave us start , and then Europe turned in on itself put us out front, but as far as our system goes it just had some lucky breaks. We could wind up with a wakeup call before this is over, or in another war. Jim
