The market is 1 part coherent logic and 9 parts nonesense. This is the biggest casino. Just because the roulette wheel hit red the last 10 times in a row does not mean it will hit red the next spin.

The odds that Obama will launch QE3 leading up to the election are about 99.9%. What other tools do they have at their disposal to try and win the election?
