I dont buy this technical analysis of the market. . . it ignores some fundamental issues with the economy. Mainly that if credit crunch reduces the value of real estate in the U.S. and commodity prices continues to rise – its inevitable the economy goes side ways . . . when that does happen, enterprise and consumer spending on tech is the first thing to go . . not to mention that online advertising will drop significantly too (which is really driving the latest 2.0 boom).
