I don't wait to "hear" anything. I just watch what stocks are doing overall. Just like you saw virtually every stock in the western world tank last fall, So to will you see every stock in the western world (that that are still in business that is) begin to improve.
Of course you will "hear" other good indicators, like Obama is no longer president...
Until that happens, it's a safe bet nothing is going to get better.
I think that's a pretty good leading indicator. LOL!
I don't pay any attention to the Cramers and Cavutos of the world. They get paid to entertain. I *do* "listen" to the words coming out of their mouths occasionally....like I said, the phrase "this time it's different" is an contra-indicator in my book.
Post #169 (I think) has Obama saying "This time it's different". I'd put him in the "chattering class" catagory. I might tune into Fox over the weekend, pickup a USA today, and see what the talking heads are saying.
