] Should you be worried that the bull's too bullish? ] Frankly I was. So I asked Morningstar's senior analyst ] Annette Larson for an update of the current P/E ratios of ] the mutual fund world. Price/earnings ratios are one of ] the more interesting benchmarks of market optimism. ] ] And yes, it sure looks like we may be pushing our luck ] folks. A correction may be coming as P/E ratios appear to ] be signaling a renewed overdose of what Alan Greenspan ] and Yale economist Robert Shiller dubbed "irrational ] exuberance."

More oddness and news of the weird! The 22-year-old college student, pictured at right in a Dunn County Sheriff's Office mug shot, pleaded guilty last month to burglarizing a home in search of the barely-there underwear. After Scholfield's arrest last April, Menomonie cops discovered 854 thongs stashed in his home, with the garments stored in everything from a briefcase to a Pokemon lunch pail Thong Thiever! |

] Social Security privatization is one fascinating ] political game that's about to resurface.

Privatization does that: As more assets shift ] into private hands, Wall Street and the funds pocket more ] fees. ] So mark Jan. 20 on your calendar. That's when the sales ] job begins, in the President's State of The Union ] message. Historically Social Security has been the ] Democrat's baby. And a political third rail, a dangerous ] area Republicans especially avoid for fear of getting ] zapped. Privatized Social Security just a push for asset fees |
