more CNBC money paid out to hear opposing opinions about market direction.... news is mostly SHIT.. bunch of noise.. "In business and economic decision-making, data causes severe side effects ââ¬âdata is now plentiful thanks to connectivity; and the share of spuriousness in the data increases as one gets more immersed into it. A not well discussed property of data: it is toxic in large quantities ââ¬âeven in moderate quantities." nassim Taleb Dont ever think i'm not the sucker that won't be drawn in by herd histeria.. or lost in the randomness of the news and its posionous noise...

The global economic slowdown is hitting emerging markets especially hard⦠With demand from developed markets under pressure, the export-based emerging market economies are struggling to maintain growth levels. Given the heavy infrastructure investments that many of these countries have made (such as entire Chinese cities built and yet to be populated) the global slowdown comes at a particularly challenging time. While US equities have been steadily advancing, emerging market equity indices have been severely underperforming.

Any stall for US equities would only exacerbate the situation for emerging market equities, as a flight from risk assets would certainly include additional liquidation of emerging equities as well.

I went to the link to the web site. I like your commentary, Mike. Wide ranging and on popular, important subjects. Each short, to the point, and very sensible.
QE or no QE, uncle Sam's borrowing costs remain low. Ben buys IOU's, treasuries rise. Stocks crash, treasuries rise. Eurozone breaks up, flight to stability, treasuries rise. American IOU's are the gold standard.
