Earl,

Have to support some serious concerns you have suggested over the weekend:

" When you look at some of these issues, the scary thing is that there
is more potential for disaster in the credit arena than there is in the
equities arena. The real problem in looking ahead is that our financial
system has never been stress tested under the tremendous loads of debt and
derivatives which currently exists."

Well, when it is stress tested and it fails, however briefly,  it 
will get the attention of the equities arena when they won't be able 
to hold money market at  $1 per share.  Haven't we seen this before?

" My personal view is that
the ratio will ultimately reach the 0.50 level (or lower) because we are
witnessing the end of a secular bull market."

I agree with this also, but be careful, they shoot the messenger around here.

best.....
