AQ is on fire. Technology continues to break to new highs. The NASD Who knows where the top is, but I would be very wary of adding new money at this juncture, and would use any continued strength toget out. As I\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bdm looking at a chart the Q\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bds could easily go higher, but the risk now outweighs the potential for rewards. INTC and MSFT are looking expensive. Yahoo, Amazon, Ebay and AMAT have PE\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bdsthat are unreasonable. That doesn\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bdt mean they can\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bdt get more unreasonable, but it the market has become too optimistic. The fundamentals for some of these companies have improved, but if thefundamentals took one step forward the underlying security has taken 5 steps forward. Either the fundamentals have some catching up to do, or the equities are going to catch up the other way. My betis to look for spots to sell the NASDAQ, including Biotechs.<\/p>\n
Looking at the Broader Market, we are still in a trading range. The Dow broke out of it\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bds range and has a shot at 9800 before year-end. However, S&P is stuck between 102 and 96 on the spiders. This next week we are looking for selling. Friday\u00c3\u00af\u00c2\u00bf\u00c2\u00bds reversal was significant. Our crystal ball says the S&P will end the month down 2% and Dow Jones will be flat for month. Save your money, there will be better opportunities down the road.<\/p>\n
