Don et al ..... talking of bubbles ..... whilst the index soared did anyone notice how broard based (or not) the rally was ??. Is it just me or do I get the impression that the 'blue chips' faired much better ??.

On a more basic note, could someone please explain to me what overbought/oversold means. A couple of days ago I heard two people on CNBC express different views, and I guess period has something to do with that differing viewpoint??.

For instance, does overbought mean there are no more buyers ??. Does it relate to price movement ??. I ask this because I read again that this market will quickly become so overbought it will quickly have a hangover. I accept this and at some point it makes sense to take money off the table .... but I would appreciate a more knowledgable view on this if someone has a mo.

Thanks ... and good luck everyone

Stephen
