    The 2010 DOW at 11357 means a tough year ahead but slightly better than 2009.

    I'm still good for Dow 17,000 by the close of 2010. That's only 6,000 points to rally up.

    My Guess,

    Dow: 10,900

    I think we can make more than that tremendous growth though

    There is nothing out there - other than safe money on the sidelines - that will drive the market to new highs. Why will the safe money move to risk assets for the long term when the hope and change smell is in the air.

    There will be an enhancements in capital gains rates.
    There will be an enhancements in dividends tax rates.
    There will be an enhancements in 2011 income tax rates.
    There will be an enhancements in Federal Gubmint Regulation.

    On the positive side:

    Election pressure may force lip service to gubmint responsibility. For 2010.

    Thus, anemic annual growth - but, maybe, tremendous swings internally.
    Lookin' up at the 'G Fund'!!!
