    Ditto.
    Also would welcome any observations you may care to share about Greece, China etc.

    Thanx for the inquiry - I'm doing just fine, absorbing the pain and buying stock every day. The Dow will sometimes penetrate its' 200 day moving average and scare the you know what out of the individual players - me I see the market moves as a small blessing. I'm buying equities cheaper with a higher yield for my income stream. So I'm sticking with my program of treading where angels fear to go. I've recently had a cash merger buy out and also another 2/1 split on another stock - money is just flowing.

    I was just looking at BTU, and EXXI BTU getting ripped a new one on their projections. No planned position for now.

    Mr. Birchtree, I would like to reiterate my post below and would welcome any observations on Greece, China, or the market in general you would care to make/share.
    For that matter on any topic you choose.
    Be well.
    I would wish you Good Luck but you've shown repeatedly and quite clearly you don't need it.
    (should there be any doubt, that was a compliment )

    I see I've been tossed overboard just like Goldie Hawn - it don't matter. It's my party and I'll cry if I want to, cry if I want to, cry if I want to, you would cry too if it happened to you - I think by Leslie Gore. Since the 350 point crack in the Dow I've made 40 dollar cost averaging buys into existing positions and the dividends keep rolling on. June was an excellent month for dividend reinvestments and I have 60 due for July. The bull market continues. When the Dow first closed above 10.000 in 1999, it only took another 24 trading days for it to close above 11,000.
    After the Dow achieved 12,000, it only took seven months to hit 13,000 and then three months to hit 14,000 in July 2007. Can you see the potential of this market power? Everyone should stay alert and stay in to win.

    Rochester says the multi-year global stock market rally continues. The rise will be led by continuous slow economic growth combined with low interest rates. That's one of the best environments for stock investing. I now have 85 dividend increase announcements with only 82 left to match 2014 - it's like a very nice pay raise.

    More people seem headed into the I fund - another approach would be to buy the ETF IEV which contains 350 of Europe's largest stocks and sit back and wait for the escape velocity to take you to the land of profits.

    You can hit bulls like Birchtree with all manner of negative data and nothing seems to stop them. Why? Because zero interest rates, overwhelming liquidity and the belief bailouts are here to stay means risk has no negative consequences. The primary driver of the rally going forward will be the continued skepticism by investors. Although the recovery has been less than robust it has outpaced expectations and I believe this trend will continue. With 60 shades of grey the major objective of all the money printing and low interest rates has been to create inflation, which includes Birchtree's asset price inflation.

    They're saying to expect more pain in the energy patch - well I don't care, I'm buying everything I can if it smells like oil. The smell of superlative bull manure is wafting across the board today.

    If we want to be bullish in this volatile market one must have cajones like BT, he runs with bulls, he may take some lumps and bumps; when down but he always gets up, always. Heck, BT must be one of these bulls dumping investors off the gravy train.
