We'll see how it handles next year's news and ejection of Greece. I'd bet Greece leaves in a sort of Lehman experiment; let it go and let's see what happens. I'd expect the possibility to happen at year end with the rumors starting in Q1 as a sort of trial balloon to see how markets react. If correct, buy the dip in Q1, sell summer, get back in 2013.

Wotta revolting development.
