If this airhead keeps predicting an upswing eventually we'll get it and she'll be proclaimed an expert once again. 11,300 Dow target? Maybe in 2010!

I'm buying all I can. These wusses who are selling out are panicking for no reason. Emotion is ruling the market, as in many sell-offs. I'm taking advantage. :)

Stocks will rise again no doubt. This market is overwhlemingly mass psychology driven at the moment. The fundamentals are not too shabby. I believe the bottom while not yet breached is nevertheless quite near......it's a process as they say. The big unknown are terrorist attacks. Another Sept. 11th and bam!...who knows.

Wall Street must be really scared to trot out Abby Cohen.

Same old crap -- "The fundaments are good. We see a recovery in the __________ (fill in the blank). Stocks always go up. Stay calm. We're near a bottom. Send us your hard earned money. Remember, it's for the children."

She's correct in only one sense. There never has been a bear market that didn't end.

It's not ending this week.

In April, Goldman's Cohen had said her 2002 target for the Dow ($INDU: news, chart, profile) was 11,300 and for the S&P 500 ($SPX: news, chart, profile) it was 1,300.

Last year she said the Dow was going to 12,200!

Abbey and "the Bat"...They'll keep trotting them out until the market's at zero. These two losers have been consistently wrong for almost three years. How come they still have jobs? Why haven't they been hauled in front of Congress like the WorldCom analyst who was recommending them all the way to the bottom?

[Roger_W_Isom]

The "experts" I've heard so far, on Fox are NOT in a upbeat moof on how the market will behave come Mon..... Even THEY are saying, straight out, "We DON'T know where the market will end up at the closing bell" That, to ME, hints they are concern SOMEBODY, or more likely, some GROUP has been manipulating this market!!!!! On MSNBC they even allowed ONE viewerto ask the question....

COULD AL QEADA BE MANIPULATING THIS MARKET??????

when THAT question is allowed its OBVIOUS that there are some VERY strange stories being heard on the market floor.....

INDEED its only a TINY step away from that to an even more LOGICAL question...

COULD THE SAUDIS, IRAQIS,& PALESTINIANS LEADERS BE MANIPULATING THIS MARKET?????

Stocks will suck and get whipsawed on down for 3 more years at least. Been down for 2 years by now. So this makes 5 in all.

I am amazed at the something for nothing crowd that thinks 17 years of an up market gets cured in a few months....

Fugeddaboudit!

[Scott from the Left Coast]

Yet another person (this one on the bull side) who is trying to convince everyone that they can see the future.

I've never met anyone yet that could foretell the future (well, Churchill seemed pretty good at some things, but I never met him).

Bulls or bears, you just have to take with a grain of salt anyone who is telling you what will happen tomorrow, next week, next month, next year...

[hinckley buzzard]

Please. Abby Joseph Cohen has never admitted that the bullmarket ever ended. Anyone who bought whenever this shill yelled "buy" would be flat ass broke-- and a lot of them are... Innocent people have lost billions following her advice.

She has done more harm to the public than Ken Lay.

"Cohen predicts stocks will rise...in other news, sun to come up in the East tomorrow."
