<<Very refreshing reading someone with optimism towards the future. Certainly no shortage of bears out there. >> What is refreshing? Listening to someone who shares the same view as yourself.? Of course there is no shortage of bears out there. It is a bear market u know and that means the bears are in the ascendency. Listen to what they are telling u and let the trend be your friend. The trend is down!!. It will not change direction until we have the capitulation phase taking Dow below 7500.
