DrStool 259 Posted February 23 Author Report Share Posted February 23 Ah! A visitor! Thanks for stopping by Potato! I start feeling weird talking to myself all day. Obviously it's compulsion. A normal person would have shut this down no later than 2010. Link to post Share on other sites

DrStool 259 Posted February 23 Author Report Share Posted February 23 The settled funds from today's $55 billion in Treasury bill paydowns are being put to work. But it's not going where it needs to go. Stocks are recovering. Longer term Treasuries are not. Recipients of the cash are either keeping it in cash, or deploying some at the margin on blue chip stocks. The Dow is back to even. Nasdaq is lagging badly. This is money that isn't seeking risk assets. Holders just want a safe parking space, but are willing to rotate some into blue chips in the hope of participating in "recovery."

DrStool 259 Posted February 23 Author Report Share Posted February 23 I guess I was right after all. Looks like the downdraft will indeed have been too short to play for swing trades. Always plagued by self doubt. Link to post Share on other sites
