Google Armageddon?

This chart is one I found online and decided it was so good looking I'd recreate it.

With today's bad Google news and subsequent big selloff afterhours, I decided it could be extremely relevant. Not much needs to be said that isnt on the chart...

If this is true though then 2011 should be as crazy or crazier than 2008. The hope is that the pink line of support will hold and keep the uptrend intact.

Good Luck.

Investing Philosophy

I believe that at any given moment market prices are never fairly valued. Everyone has a different model with different expectations, but these models do not necessarily average out to a fair price. Often times models all incorporate the same wrong assumptions or some variant of (see any 2008 wall street analyst's earnings expectation). Also, many market participants buy and sell for reasons other than the future expectations of earnings, book value, or anything that has to do with a company's underlying fundamentals. An example of this is when a company gets added to or taken from a market index such as the S&P500. Many market participants must add or drop that security for the sole reason of its involvement in the underlying index; Nothing to do with fundamentals, just keeping up with a benchmark. Another example is specific company fundamentals don't necessarily change on a minute by minute basis, so why do share prices? Or, maybe a CEO sells his shares to buy a second home. Nothing at all to do with the company. These examples introduce the human factor to the markets. The human factor is the primary reason markets are inefficient. The human factor cannot be modeled because we are not always rational and we are always affected by our emotions, which cannot be modeled. I seek to take advantage of this thru technical analysis.

I believe in fundamental analysis to a point. I believe value investing using fundamental analysis can and does work over the long run. Value (conservative) investing should prevent you from buying a company that will go bust, and it should provide you with a reasonable expectation of an earnings stream. I suggest fundamental investing for the sole purpose of income generation (dividends) and not price appreciation, though. That is what technical analysis is for.
