What?  I can't believe you guys spent the whole afternoon answering my
question I so innocently posed (to stir up some meaty discussion).  I
was busy watching the Masters (Yes, Tiger did it again).  
 
Just want to thank all of you for your fine input as usual.  
 
The only opinion I can render at this point about the market is I'm 90%
cash!  
 
Have a great weak hunting.

even when the numbers themselves are honest, there is still a problem in
what companies are allowed to say. Under the Reg FD (Full Disclosure),
they now must tell us what they used to say only in private with
analysts and their large institutional investors. However, there is no
requirement for them to update any "forward looking" statement if
subsequent events mean it is no longer correct.
 
And the surveillance programs by both NASD and SEC seem to have become a
joke. I see more and more stocks that trade huge volume, and make major
price swings, only to have news released hours or days later. It doesn't
take a rocket scientist to see that the news was leaked early, and
traded on it, before it was publicly released. Yet I don't see the
regulators acting.

Mona, we can't always trust the financial numbers as we are finding out.
It's a crazy time to be an investor, but every market has it's
opportunities.  We just have to look patiently and persistently.

Ira, thanks for the Twinkies metaphor. I, for one, have not recovered
nearly enough from the stomach ache from over eating the Twinkies to be
much tempted by tech stocks.
 
It's less that I want a bull market at this point and more that I'd like
a little rationality. Maybe this is simply inexperience and there is
nothing different about the current market, but it seems that bad news,
good news, or no news can all bring down a stock; hard to have much
confidence in your own due diligence when you're new at it and you can't
seem to trust pundits, accountants, or analysists or even the #s
themselves for much of anything.

Mona and Katherine,
 
Very good points on market direction.  We'd all love to have another
bull market, but we haven't sufficiently absorbed the last one.  P/E's
are still very high.  I think a sideways move for a number of years is a
very likely transition to whatever comes next.  I also agree that tech
stocks will recover somewhat, but not lead the market like they did in
the nineties.
 
Tech stocks are often like Hostess Twinkies.  They're so attractive, but
usually lack substance.  One has to be very careful to use good due
diligence on the financials on tech stocks like on every other stock.
 
Ira
