Despite the excitement, market watchers were divided on how long the party would last. In the past their predictions have gone wide of the mark. A bull market began almost exactly two years ago on Friday, Aug. 13, when the Dow Jones stood at 776.92. The Dow went upward for ten months, until the middle of 1983, and forecasters confidently predicted it would reach 1400 or 1500. Instead, it then began drifting sideways.

To have McKinney and Pace side by side on the U.S. team is like sneaking two Boston Celtics disguised as college boys into the basketball competition...
...beef?" Now, while tolerating the inevitable Mr. Mom jokes applied to Ferraro's husband, we should also have the more subtle pleasure of watching President Reagan tiptoe through the social land mines. Will Ferraro be a "gal," a "girl," a "lady"? There should be wonderful national bull sessions too: heated, sophomoric, serious. What is this "compassion factor" anyway? As if Elizabeth I were a dove. Sense and nonsense will gallop tandem through the land, and polls will be taken by the hour...
