Market pundits can sometimes tend to overstay their welcome on both the bull and the bear side. Plus, the media is always looking for guests that make outrageous claims, so these media darlings are usually in big demand, long after their initial calls may have already seen the bulk of the move.

Our country has been through bad times before. Unless Obama totally destroys the free market system, it will come back. However, we could still see worse time in the near future before the true rebound.

Weather or not there is worse to come is dependent on future earnings, not what the market has done in the last 3 months. We haven't had any major bear market rallies in this bear market, and ALL bear markets have their bear market rallies. I wouldn't be too sure the markets will continue booming from here on.

Don't get suckered in by this recent rally. It is very long in the tooth. it is easy to have a large bounce when the market was down so much, but now that the bounce has come, what will propel stocks higher from here? The reports are pretty lousy, but the media spins them positively. People will only be fooled for so long. Rising oil prices and interest rates will crush any chance for a recovery.
