| US Stock Markets In 2010: Caution Warranted By Lessons Of 1932 Posted: 17 Jan 2010 04:05 PM PST In 1932, the Dow nearly doubled, giving weary investors something of an “all clear” signal - and then plummeted back to Earth again. So 2009 is finally over. A new year, full of promise and peril, stretches out ahead. Now what? The Dow Jones Industrial Average - to use a commonly cited barometer - is up roughly 65% (as of this writing) from the ugly depths of the 2009 March lows. Going off that data point alone, it is no real surprise that investors are optimistic. Trouble being, … [visit site to read more]

| Stock Investor Sentiment: They Don’t Ring A Bell At The Top Posted: 17 Jan 2010 12:03 PM PST There are two kinds of bulls: 1) there are those bulls who are intent on squeezing every last percentage point from this rally and who believe they can find the exits when the music finally stops; and 2) then there are those bulls who continue to have high expectations that the current market environment will yield strong returns.
