The WSJ is trending in the bearish direction b/c of energy, the deficit, the resulting worthless dollar, and other issues (like a D presidency and a D congress). They *do* point out strengths, as is done here, but they also address weaknesses; I think we need to be cognizant of the very real problems out there (as opposed to the sound bite pseudo-problems that the media cooks up).

If I had spent 2007 listening to Matt Lauer or the talking heads at CNN I should have gone broke back in July. I’m in real estate so, as every knows, I should be starving. Oh well, I guess I won’t have to vote for Hillary for heath care after all. *phew* Mrs. Swanky’s prof is very wise.
