I think because we are so close to the August 97 highs we need to move
higher before we can have a true market correction. I think Fridays DJIA
showed us that with Friday's low. Intra day we moved within striking
distance of the August highs.  I actually see us moving higher so the
market can move well above the old August 97 highs. This way when the
market does pullback it can pullback without the technical problem of
moving below  the August 97 highs.
