"You can't always get what you want. But if you [stop trying] sometimes, you get what you need." (with apologies to The Rolling Stones)

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Bears have tried and tried but the market keeps on moving higher. If only they would stop wanting a correction, they might get what they need, says Woody Dorsey, the founder of Market Semiotics, an independent research firm based in Vermont.

But that should take another month, when it's least expected, which fits well with the market philosophy and strategy Dorsey has built his reputation upon among the asset managers and wealthy investors he advises.

His motto: "Observe everything, believe nothing, and invest only on the basis of the behavior errors of others."

As for bullish portfolio managers, do they have enough of what they need to close the books on the first quarter and take their own Spring Break?

After all, if the dull economic recovery and financial markets aren't as exciting as they were in the 1990s, or the more recent bubble years, the beaches might still offer hints of eternal youth. By Nick Godt, MarketWatch
