I dont really understand what you are trying to say?
Quote from i_c_fed_people:
I guess he's talking about there being too strong of a sentiment and that if 'everybody' thinks the market is going up, then it wont.
All well and good, and i'd agree with him if it was another market that wasn't so heavily manipulated for obvious reasons.
However, in this case, as i've been saying since the day I joined, we are going UP over time and always will. We HAVE too!!!
If we started to go down strongly, rules would be put in place to stop people shorting, weak/underperforming stocks would be removed from the index etc etc. The natural upside bias is too strong - silly to try to fight it. Embrace it!

Quote from kashirin:
markets go where they should go
housing is the last example. They wanted bubble- they got it, and when it popped nothing could revive
the same will happen to stock market - when time comes no rules will shield it
actually it happened 2 times in 10 years and I can't believe some think it will never happen again
if you're too complacent with your unrealized gain you will be burnt
