OT: Mark - It would make more tangible sense to know WHAT board that msg. came from....but, suffice to say in these tough mkt. conditions could be from "about any board". Although I "do not" agree with every word (call it DUMB if you like :)~~~~~ what I do believe is it's just going to be a tough 2nd quarter (hopefully NOT as bad as Q1) and the general market is going to feel the pain. Just think about what's happened in a VERY SHORT period of time...............
1. 1998/1999 "euphoria" in the mkt. led by TECH 'bubble'
2. sustained economic/personal financial growth for 10+ yrs.
3. late 1999 - 2000 'bubble burst' >>>> OUCH !!
4. markets begin to tank....culminated in the worst qtr. in
recent history RE: Q1 (every major MUTUAL FUND in tank!!)
5. new administration w/ all of the election nightmares.
6. 2001 ------- financial nightmares from the git-go !!!!
7. navy sub sinks Japanese research boat
8. WTO talks extend ad infinitum
9. Greenspan does not "curtsy" to Wall Street !!
10. SPY PLANE DOWN in China !!!!!!!!!!! :(
There are other things which could be added, no doubt. But, (hate that word) ----- there is also some "major" gamesmanship going on right now also ----- MD7 posted a VERY viable article just a bit ago. It's a "sign" of things to come...."history" will repeat itself...on the markets ------ let's hope what appears to be an EXTENDED timeline for many things today....like other things now in retrospect.....turn out to be shorter than we're thinking right now w/ ** see above list.
Wow....may be my 'windy-i-est' msg. (no applause pleEZ) :)
