"Think back to January 2000
that's where we are."
I've been buying more stock every month since then. And the stocks & funds I started buying back in the '70s are looking good, too.
If it keeps going up I might have to sell some. Nah, I'm not greedy, just trying to keep well ahead of inflation.

Well, i understand what you are saying and normally I'm long too
But
I look around I see nothing interesting to buy. no compelling stories in anything.
I see lots of risk
I see an inverted yield curve
I see transports not backing the industrials
I see lots of bad signs and nothing good.
I'm more than 50% in cash right now and not convinced I'm not going further.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I am backing what I say with my own money.
It's a bubble caused by housing and incredibly loose credit. All booms end in a deflationary bust.
There's no harm being into capital preservation.
I'm sure in 6 to 12 months, we'll know who can talk smack, you or me.
