    Back on topic (I never imagined a lesser burb like WBL would become a topic around here ) - I'm modestly bullish for the early portion of January, and then very bearish for the latter half of the month.

    Overall for 2006, I'm not nearly as optimistic as Tom is - I see the market as flat to down overall, with the I fund possibly eking out gains due to the dollar's potential tumble as the Fed ends its hikes and starts looking to cut late in the year as the economy slows.

    Thumbs up

    Tech,

    I'm there with ya but can't quit looking at the I fund. Do you think that the fact that the FED is looking to slow or stop raising rates and the fact the other countries will start raising their rates will push the F Fund up?

    And, will this also help or hinder the I Fund?

    Short term I think it will help the I fund with the USD decline as long as it doesn't happen to fast and for to long a period.

    I am bearish shorter term and bullish longer term based on the S&P trading channel for past 2 years. We are currently at the upper end of the channel and I would expect a push down to the 1200 area before the market finds strength and another rally ensues.
