James: I see were the Brokers, Specialist, and Market Makers have to be making a killing, but the total market caps says investors are getting it up the rear,

Well you said a mouth full. You know how I feel about manipulation! <g>

I use indexes to determine how the above mentioned expect John Q. Public to feel/react. That is why I use my own indicators for buy and sell signals. And, use broad based indicators such as the 200 day SMA, for J.Q. Public sentiment.

Jim, LG and Pikewest,
