>>CNBC has been like the local sports station reporting a run of victories by the home team. <<

That's it exactly.

T, Speaking of sports analogies, CNBC bullishness no matter what reminds me of Giants baseball games broadcast on radio by the late, great Russ Hodges. Russ was such a Giant partisan that you couldn't trust his descriptions and had to wait for the final sentence, where he had to tell the actual result. Such as: "Orlando Cepeda hits a long fly ball. The fielder is going back, back, far back, and the second baseman grabs it for the third out." <G>
