Nicely put D12. 2008 will bring us out of the doldrums. Its small volume pushing us down. Insignifcant factor considering the news releases have been at worst great and the tonnage is proving up not down. The big guys want a number. We haven't got one yet. Trust me we don't want one until we have an exceptional one to put out to the investment community.
Patience..Patience...Patience......go to sleep like Crazy and Snezzer...take in a comedy movie...play with the kids..but forget this until Jan/Feb. The commodity bull run that is right around the corner will pick us up with it. My guess is we will fly back up as quickly as we did with the first couple of halts, but once more is known we will continue to climb rather than faltering each time with the market movers playing their cyclical trading games.
We're in it for a long time.....at least I know I am....the folks that made good money were in it for not less than 1 year. Lets see where we are in September 2008. I'm sure we'll like it. The rollercoaster ride is only the speculative game players doing thier thing. Ignore it and move on with the bigger picture.
All the best to my NOT friends...
