I2, >>>>> Add to that the number of people who did sell out (perhaps even just a portion of their holdings) and didn't buy the stocks back when the market went to the 7000's. These people are now seeing that the stock prices are back to where they were when they sold; they sold their stocks for nothing.<<<<<<< It would depend on the sector. This is mainly a TECH thread, so the big techs are mostly at new highs, but what about the BANKS, TRANSPORTs, RUT. Fortunately, of the very few I advised who did get out, they were mainly in the financials/cyclicals as core holdings and a few small caps. They partially got back in the high 8000's but mainly missed a good portion of the run up but if they held they would be at a substantial losses still. I have to admit that this is the strongest upswing I could have imagined.
