He is a narcissistic, dictatorial fascist at heart. That's as anti-American as you can get. We should all be afraid. Very afraid.

I am looking for the cracks you keep harping about if TNX got above 1. Well here we are. Then again the Fed reiterated at the last meeting the repo desk is ready willing and able. So if it heats up what difference will it make. For awhile anyway. Link to post Share on other sites

DrStool 248 Posted January 7 Author Report Share Posted January 7 I'm seeing ferocious short squeezes on stocks that had just triggered sell signals and looked primed to break down in the past week or so. This is a bloodbath. I had a few of them and covered immediately the instant the sell signal reversed. For me, it was just a scratch. For committed shorts, it's amputation time.

I get the sense that very few traders will profit on this disaster on the downside. Many have to be getting destroyed trying as you suggested. Link to post Share on other sites
