Fox News (ha ha) is spinning how the economy is ready to take off due to lower oil prices and tax cuts. The freaking propaganda is so thick that you can cut it with a knife. :angry:

NDX just turned red.

 

Naz volume definitely outpaces SP. I guess everyone is gaming the SUNWs and OPWVs of the world, and therefore trading 1000 shrs of those can be a lot heavier in volume than trading 100 shrs of MMM, even with the same $$ amount.

What's wrong with this logic:

 

New tax bill crucifies people that decide to place their dividend

paying dongs in a margin account. Knowing that by putting

their dongs in a cash account, the get effectively 20% more

return, they do that. It leaves less stock to short...

BUT

The set of people that trade this as a bear market doesn't

change. They think stocks are going down, but now there's

a lot less stock to short.

SO

They look for other ways to make money in what they

believe is a down-destined market. Does this make a

case for ultimately higher put option premiums?

 

I'm not saying, just saying.

True, very true.

 

But, the average individual believes it. That is what is important!
