The market direction, like beauty, is in the eyes of the beholder. The picture
looks different to everyone. If everyone thought the same way there would be no
market. It also depends on what time frame you are looking at. One time frame
can be very bullish and the other just as bearish for the same market or stock.
The SnP can be going down and the stocks you hold can be going up. The market
like most other things is very personal and many feel our destiny is in the
stars. We will find that one out very soon. Ira
