Brown Shoots. Squirt Squirt


Recommended Posts

If the market holds here for another 10 or 12 trading days,it sure looks like we could get a cross of the 50 day above the 200 day.

 

That could be ugly for the bears if it happens.And "chart guys" could buy the signal and give us the blowoff I am still guessing we get.

 

 

I could be totally wrong so I am selling my position a little each day.

That happened several times the other way in '02-07 bull market. Each time it was near a bottom.

Every day for weeks I have almost posted this comment.

 

Despite all that has happened, the systematic and institutional forces which favor rising stock averages are again working seamlessly.

 

Or something like that. I'm not saying conspiracy. It's just a process.

 

Bless you KW for leaning to the bear side, and I'm not certain what your target is for a swing trade, but with the fate of the world as we know it hanging in the balance each day or week, depending upon the appearance of Green Shoots and Confidence that only rising stock averages can bring, it going to take some real shocks to get this market anywhere near the March low at this point. Well that's my view.

 

Under normal conditions you might figure a nice little shake out here would be healthy for the bulls but I get this overwhelming sense that the big boys have essentially banned downside plays for fear that they just might not be able to stop them. That's all total BS I know. Just a story.

 

 

Here's Naz Comp 1/10/02 hourly, with today's hourly RUT below....the Naz started a vicious 6 week, leading to 6 month, drop the next day in 2002, and the similarities of the setup are striking. Don't mean it cant turn out different.....

 

Bears still in the hunt at this juncture.....but they need to start breaking things and rip open that fridge and start feeding on steaks pretty quickly....

If that bounce off hourly 200 fails, it could very well be ovah fur da booolz, just as it was in '02

Why would you say that? The US government has committed more than 12 TTTTRillion

FRNs to save the banks. Do it make sense for a declining stock market to mess that up when say a couple of hundred billion properly applied by key players such as GS can stop the market from declining for awhile and make them a bundle also? :o

Just bumped into a friend I haven't seen for about a year.

 

He finished up in his recruitment industry CEO job about 2 mths ago, and is now looking to buy into a management consultancy.

 

After renting for a long time, he's just bought a property to live in, on a very low interest rate.

 

Interesting times.

 

I'd regard this guy as knowing what he's doing, mostly.

 

He sees the recession as being behind us.

...

There's a lot of optimism out there. But, it seems to me that there is now more moral hazard than ever before. Low interest rates are the devil. :ph34r: We need to go through the pain of higher interest rates. Only then will will we return to "fair value measured by cash flow", rather than the current "fair value measured by the next fool's access to leverage".

This is a powerful, eloquently stated, simple Truth.

precious time is being lost every day that goes by with the nation in denial and strung out on false hope and BS

 

today the gov't says it will create (or save :rolleyes: ) 600,000 jobs

 

they won't, they'll destroy millions more with taxjacks and parasitic live-off-your-neighbor programs

 

but even if they did, that's 5,400,000 short because six million families got chopped in the last 17 months

 

there is no recovery, and there will be no recovery

 

because we are a nation of morans

 

this is going to get far far worse than anyone in the state-run media is reporting

 

and they won't save the stock market either

 

corps can issue new common crapshares as fast as the gov't secretly <_< buys 'em with funny munny

 

they'll all be worthless when they BK

 

we are the BK nation

 

everyone walking away from everything

 

meetin' other fellars with chalk in their hands comin' round the other side
