I sit here wondering -- when the crash comes, where in God's name will it correct to -- 100 points over where we close today? By staying in cash and waiting for the big wave, we Bears could have made thousands in the interim. In July, the crash was somewhat unexpected and took an economic event, the Russian currency crisis, to get the ball rolling. In January, we've been eagerly expecting a crash for a month now and no such economic nightmare appears to be looming, at least in the very near term. Perhaps the bulls on other threads are right. The bears of 1999 are the ones that didn't bother to buy in last November and in fact, our dire predictions are nothing more than therapeutic mechanisms to express our itchins' to see those that did buy in, fall. Or maybe we're all pissed off by the fact that a bunch of 12-year-olds who bought Amazon in early December can pick 'em better than us and we want to see blood in the streets to make us feel better. Off to load-up on AMZN, EBAY, ONSL, and any Nutz that didn't rise more than 15% today. ;)
