Agreed it can go to $500 in a jiffy but I could never get myself chase this baby at this level, but hey that is my shortcoming. Now why did not I buy at $150?

err...no because any effect of any rate hike will be anticipated and be represented in the trend hence the trend follower would just ride it out with the adjustments.If the hike would result in a non trending equities market (like right now) - a trend follower would just go fishing until things...

A definitive bubble except a lot of people are getting rich and more will get broke before it is over..... Here is my take - watch it like a hawk and short it if you can at the right time and the right place..... P.S. who is their auditor anyways? Arthur Anderson?
