It was very clear Bob does not see a bear. In fact, Bob upgraded his recommendation from just a buying opportunity to an "excellent buying opportunity." But he didn't go so far as calling it a gift horse.

On another thread, a very appropriate indicator for the current situation is described.

Truman, re:<<During my listening today, a seemingly more subdued, less animated Brinker characterized the market downturn as no more...>> you put your finger on what is bothering me. Bob didn't display his usual upbeat attitude...its not like Bob to present a subdued attitude while on the air.

<<If Brinker foresees a bear clawing the market down more than 20% from its major average highs, he said nothing today to indicate that he did within my listening.>> you are right, I don't recall hearing him say anything about us entering into a bear market. He did say this is a buying opportunity. He also said that the current downturn was attributed to the foreign related problems all coming together at the same point in time. I believe that for good measure he throw in the Clinton problem.

Well, lets see how all this plays out.
