    Q12

    Say what??! Put/Call Ratio is 0.45.... that's twice as many calls as puts. Market is as extended as it's been in 25 years based on # of stocks trading at least 2 standard deviations above their 200-day moving average. While the market may head higher, shorter term it's screaming overbought.
