Can't the continued drooling of over-optimistic investors continue to push these Inuts up to even more stratospheric levels. It could be 5 years before sentiment among the these stocks turn south. Even if the stock is WAY over-valued...demand will continue to push it up. The Inuts don't have to join the D side of the A/D. If these areas continue to out-perform then why couldn't even more money flow into them as a last gasp at this long running Bull. As far as OIL...I'll believe that prices are rising about the time that Sadaam joins Greenpeace or prices on the lake finally fall in line with actual costs.(Why is regular gas still $1.90 at the marina?)

Bear, your post was very logical but you may be a bit early on the date.

Nice post Bear King...I hope you're right. I'm getting sick of watching some of these overinflated pigs go up 10-20 points/day. I might add that more money came into the market over the last couple of weeks than the months of Jan and Feb combined...lets hope this is the ultimate contrary indicator.

There is little or no perceived risk in the stock market anymore. I don't understand some of these pundits or "gurus" who point out that sentiment is negative and the market will continue to climb this wall of worry. Which market are they talking about anyway...negative sentiment? Give me a frigging break. I see nothing but greed and euphoria going on. This market should have a "No Fear" sticker on it. She looks tired and overdue for some kind of pullback if you ask me. One of these days some tech bellwether will preannounce and get the ball rolling/market skidding. Coupled with a rise in rates and it could get very ugly. My #2 guess is fast approaching on April 1, which I might add was made over 2 months ago...hey Auric, how about a bonus for long distance predictions?

As an addendum to the "reasons why" for the 40% decline stated in the post this one responds to, I believe everyone is underestimating Russia's distaste for NATO's use of force in Yugoslavia against the Serbs. During the next week, I believe Russia's steadfast abhorrence of these actions will be made clear, and the risk of Russia throwing their weight behind Yugoslavia's (Serb's) military in the form of technical assistance and hardware support will begin to be factored into the markets. Worst case scenario and weeks out of course, we could find ourselves in dog fights with Russian Migs flown by Russian pilots. This market, priced for perfection, will have to discount these horrific developments into current prices.
