Re: "The best way to play this market is to ignore the fundamentals. The market will tell us when it has had enough."

1. In my opinion, it's not wise to ignore the fundamentals.

2. Is it possible that the market has been pointing out to us just how good the fundamentals really are? Then again, perhaps it really is just a mania. Time will tell which is the case.

Notwithstanding the above, it is now clear that those who thought the bottom was going to drop out when the market was at 7400 were as far from reality as one can get.

Best wishes,

Shark,

What are your thoughts on the similarities or differences of the
internet stock craze compared to gambling stocks in 1978 and biotech stocks in 1992, or other crazes?

In those two time periods, oddly enough, when they finally cracked they did not bring the market as a whole down with them.
