my "gut" has been saying that for awhile rim, but we've made about 500 points since i got the first signs of heartburn... i think so many of the heavy hitters REALLY have been "hedging" that when they are being forced to cover their short positions it's helping the DOW (for now)... -------------------- Don't envy the happiness of those who live in a fool's paradise.

it's really hard to tell ain't it... more bad news on housing todayTop Lender Sees Mortgage Woes for ‘Good’ Risks By VIKAS BAJAJ Published: July 25, 2007 Countrywide Financial, the nation’s largest mortgage lender, said yesterday that more borrowers with good credit were falling behind on their loans and that the housing market might not begin recovering until 2009 because of a decline in house prices that goes beyond anything experienced in decades. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/25/business/25lend.html?hp and it's gonna get alot worse IMO before it gets better... i'm starting to see long lines (and more often) at the "coin counting machines" at the grocery store... that's a real bad sign... we have the "ethanol economy" starting to really kick in at the consumer level. also? i spent some time at a BIG reservoir this month, the number of boaters was way down.. especially waterskiers .. too 'spensive to fill the tank? which is good IMO..i fish... -------------------- Don't envy the happiness of those who live in a fool's paradise.

I seen this maybe 4 times over the last 10 years I dont consider the market "healthy" when its overvauled. I think the DJI belongs between 10 and 11k. I think the NASD is only slightly overvalued by maybe 4% -------------------- "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication"

i agree... i can't beleive how the MSNBC crew is trying so hard to convince everybody the sky ain't falling... they sound a little nervous to me... last Fri? Cramer said buy Kellogs cuz the price of corn is gonna go down.. he obviously hasn't been talking to farmers -------------------- Don't envy the happiness of those who live in a fool's paradise.

My charting says it's time to have a beer and watch some baseball. Looks like the Dow is determined to close positive today even if it only by a point or two. Two hours to go.
