Now who's "sliding?"
I think we're looking at a relatively simple case of "correct" or "incorrect." The imminent doom touted in these two threads was "incorrect," therefore pointing out that the imminent doom was exaggerated and wrong was not "minimizing," it was simply noting the facts.
You had to push the line out for months--even years--to finally get to a point where the market finally dropped below these levels.
This bit was lame. Give it up.
