The Long Road: Bears Go Home (for Now)

Sorry ... typo ... should've said I'm NOT trying to give advice!

The Long Road: Bears Go Home (for Now)

Afraid not ... finished it up as it was happening! Understand this isn't an attempt to market time, rather aimed at our audience of long-term focused investors. Is this bear going to turn into 2000-2002 again? And I'm trying to give advice ... the point is, if you've got a set allocation and looking at making tactical changes only if the sky falls (or something similar) ... is it time yet to head to the hills? Some experienced managers (two of which went on the record) aren't ready to panic just yet ... and everyone's situation is different.

Not All Is Green in Alt. Energy ETF Land

Hi, everyone ... sorry to offend. I started my career as a tech writer and understand the development and history of both Cree and Applied Materials ... I apologize for broadly casting these two as computer manufacturers rather than a semiconductor manufacturer and a test equipment maker (I know, chips and nano). It wasn't correct, but my point was that these companies are extremely broad-based ... the suggestion is that these indexes that are trying to create new green sectors leave a lot of room for question.
And I wasn't making a statement as much as asking a question. It's one that I keep hearing in many circles.
Oh, and I agree with all of you who think I'm an idiot. There's no debate along that score. That's one reason why I read Seeking Alpha and enjoy learning from its readers and contributors. Good catch and please don't give up on me yet!
