milton,

shankarm says:
market is in the trading range for the next 4-6 months. Fed has successfully steered the economy due to aggressive rate cuts in the past few months. I doubt Fed will cut rate any further.

Next to cause pain is the alt-a mortgages and the commercial real estate. My guess is 6 years from property bubble burst to bottom, only 3 year into it now, Florida burst in 2005.
