    You're dead wrong here. It's all about pushing the markets high so that the party continues and the champagne flows as always, no-one cares about the unemployed - at best they create some ridiculous programs so the unemployed are converted into employees, doing jobs that don't need doing simply because it makes the numbers look better (for the markets).

    Take a good look at the numbers. The revenues and profits have stagnated y/y, there are no new drivers of the US economy - simply FED money propping it up.

    Because the market is manipulated by the computers and can only go under the designed or pretermined model. Once the trend starts, it won't finish until the trend is completed. That's the only reason of market's going up.
    Who programmed or designed the model? Ask the US government, Barrack Obama, or Ben Bernanke. Because the US stocks can't fall(collapse), if it falls, everything else will fall one after another, that's the crumbling of the financial world. Check the chart in 2011 and compare with the 2008, you will find it should have been collapsed in 2011, but the price action in the week(26.11.2011 - 03.12.2011) has changed the pattern because they have programmed the model to alter the trend.
    I could be banned here, but I have to speak the truth out.

  7. i know people will think that's a joke but i partly believe it. i been from the school of thought that only a nice gap down starts selling because you pull in human emotion.

  8. I've been 50/50 long stocks and bonds since 2006

    things happen, plus I sold some gld

    that leaves me with too much cash

    cash is a guaranteed loser

    I sold some bonds at 126 and bought some back at 132

    the rest I have just been buying stocks every single day

    and these are mutual funds, so I only get filled on the close

    at the rate I'm going in 90 days I will finally be back to 50/50 stocks and bonds

    so to answer your question, I am buying

    S2007S


    Simply said Simply Said

    Its simply FED money propping it up and thats what so many people fail to understand, this isnt fundamentals this isnt corporate earnings, this isnt job growth, its smoke and mirrors its the trillions of dollars BUBBLE ben bernanke has contributed to the system to prop the entire world economy up, there will be books written and documentaries filmed when the next crisis comes, it will be so many times greater than the last crisis no one this time will have a clue on how to fix it, because there will be no way to fix it.

    This seems like a good place and time to post about Marketwide Circuit Breakers. The new rules went into affect April 8 with hardly any fanfare. You will NEED this information at some point...
