Philipp, everyday people don't listen to bearish action in the market or bearish commentary, they have been pavlovian conditioned to ignore it, they will sell at the absolute bottom.

People who are selling now are the insiders who have finally realized that the bull market is over.

The pour suckers who have bought the HOLD mantra will sell at the absolute bottom. When you get a survey that sezs 10-30% of the people would hold then we might be near a bottom

It's true. Ask your neighbors.
You guys here are somewhat "savy"...when compared to most of the public/retail investors.

Hell, some of you are more than "savy"...more like Jr. Guru's!!!

Except for that Rarebird dude...he's a wacko!!! <GGG>
(just kidding Rare...:-)

Who cares about the 78% of domestic savers, they only put 167 billion into the market last year and are only going to put 50 billion in this year based on the savings rate last quarter. What I care about is the foreigners who put in an average of 350 billion a year for the past three years. These people have a long track record of heading for the hills at the first sign of trouble.

Maybe it is right. These are all small investors who usually have
been conditioned to think long term. Plus in event of a selloff,
chances are these are the guys holding the worthless paper. Only
the opinions of the exteremly rich matters. And they are usually
with the hedge funds.
