What is with all the doom and gloom? Don't you know that this is the great swine flu rally of 09?!

10 points for having bird flu at red 3 on your main page. Yet again your method works. I also want to point out that I have seen a decrease in traffic on this site due to this recent 6 week bull run. That is crazy. A month and a half of continuing bad news, but the market goes up 200 points and ever...
