  2. By Jan 18th we will sell off - from highs.

    Just a guess.

    I see the first 8 days higher.

    Of course figuring out this market is tough. Also there is no real consensus like back in the 80's and mid-late 90s.

    There are reasons to sell and to buy. Probably depends on your time-frame. I am position trader and hold for weeks or more. Not easy in these see-saw markets.

    This is usually why people fail at trading, ignorant comments like this.

    I don't agree. iceman1 gave his opinion and his belief. If one stucks to his opnion when he sees things have changed, then it is a different story.

    Personally I try to read between the lines. Sometimes your voice gets lost in cheers of the market. If you look carefully, everyone's tax will go up in 2013. At least 2%. Mortgage deduction will be capped (which I am very happy because I don't have mortgage!!) So 2013 should be worse than 2012. Personally I like Pimco guys opinion on the market. There are some intelligent and educated analysts there.
