  Market Commentary

Market Stance: BULLISH (since October 31, 2005)

Last week, the market was mixed, but Deen Capital accounts scored a spectacular gain. We've enjoyed excellent market conditions since late October, and this rally has persisted long enough now for our accounts to gain some traction. We have an excellent portfolio, and I believe our stocks still have considerable upside potential -- so long as market conditions continue to be favorable.

That, of course, is the key. When the market turns, I want to detect that turn as quickly as possible and then to reduce our exposure to stocks drastically. Scoring big gains, as we have recently, is meaningful only if we do not give them back during the next bear market.

As I wrote last week: "I remain alert for signs of an important top, as I re-evaluate market conditions daily, but right now I see no such sign. My three primary technical indicators remain unanimously and unambiguously bullish. We are in the sweet spot."
