<<<< What do you think of the mode on the thread and around SI,
It seems quite euphoric to me, Do you agree or Disagree.>>>
Just cheering a good day, overall cautiously optimistic with a tinge of fear.
As you mentioned, many investors are getting flayed, skinned,
an filleted in this recent downturn... Set back financially to where they were a year ago
In the past 3 months, here is what happened to some stocks
I once owned BD(before Dell)
Down ~ 50% NOC, LEH
Down ~ 33% BAC,BA,MER,BCOM,NB
And others for reference RIG-50% ,GLM-54%, AMR -40, T-15%,Txn-16%()all rough figures)
During the same 3 months, Dell, Csco,Aol,Yhoo are up about 50% IMO diversification is the pits, and there is not much safety
in the so-called big companies.
I guess that BAC's entire years profit is gone, in bad loans to Russia
Meanwhile I hope this rally has some substance to it and was not contrived to mislead people.
Good Luck
