I got out last week and put a quarter of it back into shorts. Looks like I was just in time.

This is Pat’s cousin from the SNL skit. Seeing her/his shoes would help.

Comical Abby! Named after another well-known propagandist who was also prone to wild and unfounded predictions…

* April 2001 – Abby Joseph Cohen [chief investment strategist - Goldman Sachs]:

“The time to be nervous was a year ago. The S&P then was overvalued, it’s now undervalued.”

(The S&P continued down for another eight years in inflation-adjusted dollars)

By the way, the ad hominem attacks are really low class and offensive. Take it to the Yahoo boards.

No, it’s not a good contrarian indicator in any kind of shorter time frame because she’s always bullish. She’s just a classic case of the persistent uber bullishness that is born from a massive secular bull. So in the bigger picture, longer term, she’s a good contrarian indicator. Mostly she’s just not worth listening to.

You all are cold. Abby and Paul Tudor Jones are the same person. He does the bear side, then changes outfits and she does the bull side.

Full disclosure: Abby Cohen persuaded me to turn bulish once in my life and she really made me a lot of money by doing so.

Don’t know if something has happened to her mojo but, I’m not necessarily going to write her off this time, not entirely.
