Bill,

inflation is low, the economy is strong, and baby boomers have no place else to invest their money

Isn't that a rather accurate description of reality?

The buy/sell/hold pieces are silly to me. You have to wait forever to hear a stock that you're interested in. The time given to a stock is so brief that nothing meaningful is said. They also perpetuate a myth that a knowledgeable market player should always have handy his/her opinion at all times refined for all stocks. So 10,000+ stocks wide and an inch deep. I have always thought it should be buy/sell/hold/no-opinion and no-opinion would be the intelligent answer most of the time if the segment were honest. Of course they are pre-scripted anyway.
