OK, this is really important, one of my most beloved indicators, the bull-bear ratio, has hit a level that simply means you cannot have a big hit to this market, and that level is the 36% bull level.

I know I am not a chartist, but I have sworn by two technical indicators all my trading life: the S&P Oscillator and the bull-bear ratio.

Any time we get severely oversold, I hold my nose and buy, any time we get the bull cohort below 40%, I have to buy something, and when it gets too close to 35%, you have to cover all shorts and get long.

I think you need to go over which quarters were the best, and buy something you feel comfortable with, whether it is a Goldman Sachs (GS) down 50 points or an EMC (EMC) down 10 -- that's one I am picking at, or a GM (GM) or a Conoco (COP), all of which are very low-multiple stocks on the out years and can be compelling.

Why not take in some Pepsi (PEP), which obviously had a great quarter vs. Coke (KO), or Procter (PG) and Merck (MRK), which are buying back stock furiously?
