Sly#80, I use these threads to try and challenge my thinking.
Congenital Bears back-slapping and high-fiving themselves over every bit of negative news does nothing for anybody. If anything, I trade against that, just as I did when the bulls were all wearing sunglasses in early 2000.
It's the inability to change that dooms you to extinction.
I also used to think that the bears were generally more astute, but no longer. The bears are just as prone to Pavlovian responses as the bulls, but the bears are much nastier about it.
