The MCSUM can continue to decline while price continues to move higher. There is a shifting from the small caps into the high caps. This is why you usually see the high caps the last stocks showing a directional move in price sequence - it's going to take at least a month to even get to levels in which one would want to be concerned overall. The bull would like you off his back, so expect some volatility to shake you out. Look at your leaders. They're primarily on the lilly pad or in the F fund.

Birch,
First, for everyone else's sake - when we have these discussions, my moderator hat is off - if it was on - I would be using the edit/delete features available to me. This is my personal issue at this stage of the game.
There are three componenets to a message, the sender, the message and the reciever. Know your audience - the vast majority of people on this board fall under your definition of "bunny hoppers" - this is not a particularly useful way to endear yourself to your audience.
Now, lets get to the message: posting "your thoughts" is absolutely at the heart of this issue. I (and others) have been tracking the legitimacy of your posts for quite some time. Much of what you are posting is not "your thoughts", it's material you have lifted from professionals. What some folks on this board may find disturbing is that in many cases you have cherry picked your material. Most authors will compare and contrast by presenting bullish and bearish sides and drawing conclusions. Often, you pull the bullish comments out of an article with a professional bearish conclusion. By doing this in high volume, you have turned this into a propaganda campaign.
I do not mean this to be insulting, consider it constructive criticism, but you (what you actually write) are not a particulary good writer. The use of obscure words does not make you sound intelligent or professional. However, it does make it easy to recognize what you have written versus the material you have copied.
By taking this material out of context and presenting it as your own "expert analysis" you are both stealing and purposefully misrepresenting information. I really did not want to go down this road. If it was the occasional tid bit here or there I don't think anybody would really get too upset. That's why I have been pushing you to reduce the volume to the level of your typical board member. However, I now believe that a character assassination is what is required to curb your behavior.
The heat is on, by having this confrontation, you and I are both in the court of public opinion. I have honesty and integrity on my side, all you have is repetition and a high bean count. The game is on.

Don't forget the VIX. It's relatively very low. If the market goes up tomorrow, I might just bank it.

Griffin,
I'll show you respect by addressing you by your name. Thanks for the critique. However, I think most of my so called audience views are not from members of the board. It would appear most are guests who visit for their own reasons. I'm sure it's not for the drama or your angst. My intention is not to be conspicuous or relevent - but to provide investing information. Being a bull does lend my interpretations a certain bias - that's just a shame if you don't agree. We are in the court of public opinion and you can try to assassinate my character but your malignity is the albatross around your neck. If I need to dumb down my verbiage (you regard my investing utterances as garbage anyway) I'll work on it but I don't think my credibility will let me get too far. How do I know you have honesty and integrity on your side, all I've been exposed to is petulant envy and of course your impetuosity. You need to learn to strive for more tolerance so when I use the term momentum chasing don't blow up. If I break any rules then I'll own the consequences. I still think our differences are in vision - yours is 12-24 hours, mine is 6, 12, 18 months - it's basically that simple when you drill down to the hidden agenda. A lot of board members are actually chasing momentum and I could care less - it's not my money, all I'm doing is demonstrating that there is an alternate strategy and you should have tolerance and respect for that. You can blow all the false accusations out your sphincter - but the fact remains it still comes out as flatulence. Snort.

And still not addressing the countless deliberate plagiarism violations.
Even your mentor Biden didn't own up either.
I gues the term bunny-hopper is appropriate for the way you hopped over that part of the message.

I believe my last sentence covered that particular insinuation - do you have something you would like to add? Wait until Mr. Jiffy Lube shows up and you two can collaborate together.

Insinuation is an accusation. Your plagiarism here is a fact. And it has occured numerous times. And you have done it deliberately. Need some examples......there's plenty.
*Trying to save face by denying the truth leads to comments like "blowing it out your sphincter."

Dell,
Tomorrow would be good for periscope down and dive - wash a few timers out to sea. The brunt of the pain will be on the S fund with the C fund unchanged. I know I'm wishful thinking - but I'll be doing some more buying regardless of price movement. Getting ready for Santa.
