These guys don't like this market because it's a real market -- the kind that makes you have to do your homework to make money. Before, in the Clinton Bubble era, with everything inflated 100 to 1000 times reality, they could just close their eyes, drop their finger, pick out a company and it would increase. Falsely increase, but nonetheless increase.

Bubble era brokers were lazy and spoiled and willing to believe they were investment geniuses. But,real markets call for real work. And real markets are the norm. And real geniuses get id'd by real results.

Not true. The advance-decline line during the bubble was on a steady downslope. And for people who don't chase a few stocks upwards, it was a difficult climate in which to make money.
