Earl, Don did mention that Dorothy had left. However, like you, I suspect that
her mention of being a broker was to possibly pick up clients. As for her views
and forecasts, they were mixed, but I appreciated thinking about what her
arguments were about. The one point she raised that I meant to bring to the
table, and will do now, is that this new wave higher lacked conviction since it
didn't have volume supporting it. Well, I think she was right, but I think that
only proves this is a correction to the larger drop that began in May of this
year. As for the language you've used ("I think most of us have been awestruck
by the strength of this rally") I would disagree because this hasn't been a
strong rally. Yes, there hasn't been a significant correction, but the four week
drop that preceded this 9 -11 week rise was more than twice as strong. This
rise, in my view, lacks the dynamic moves to be classified as a new impulse
higher -- so I'm considering it a correction, or a segment to a larger
correction, that is about to conclude.
