if you will allow me to disagree with you on some of the minutia (e.g. more dust mites to clean up -- but i did like your analogy), i totally agree with your analysis. buy, buy, buy, buy!!!

bush is doing all the right things. folks who are accused of wrongdoing and fraud are being arrested, he is not sponsoring any major shakeup of the markets, some minor things to demonstrate the culpability of the ceos to us itty bitty investors are being encouraged.

.....i totally agree with your analysis. buy, buy, buy, buy!!!

(asking seriously with mischievous smile on face ) If now is the time to buy, buy, buy and the professionals are saying hold, hold, hold for the long run, then who is going to sell, sell, sell in order for someone to buy, buy, buy?

Nice rally today. We will still hold off until after August 14th. Someone else here on FR said it best.. "if you wait, you may not get in on the *bottom* of a Bull, but if it is a true Bull, you will still do well". We will wait patiently.
