Ratio of puts traded in respect to call options. #ofPuts/#ofCalls=Put-to-Call volume ratio. Same for open interest ratio.

...put-to-call volume....

Just thought I'd shed some light on these important things, mainly for those that choose not look at valuable market metrics like these. Moral of the story is don't chase this market at these levels...pullback is a comin'. See the graphic, be the graphic...

Just saw an emergency press release by Geithner, it said "The banks captalization is just fine, and the rumors of banks needing multiple billions of dollars are false....on opposite day!"

And thus, a 50 year mortgage.

I agree that high inflation isn't synonymous with high natural employment rate, as we know how detrimental 70's style inflation can be on the economy. Phillips curve seeks to prove a relationship between rising prices and rising employment rate in short run. The relationship does exist, even...

Ahhhh, the good old Phillips Curve illustration. There are definitely some stimulating topics of ET from time to time. Inflation will boost employment and therefore output in the short run, in the long run, we'll only be left with the higher prices. This is poor tool that policy makers use...

You know, that's what suprises me about the Great Depression history, too. American's didn't have any type of major social episode that you would've expected. Other countries will start riots if the inflation rate up-ticks by 1%, but America...we remain docile in the face of this ugliness...

Do some online math problems as often as you see fit, in order to keep the skills sharp. Plenty of websites out there offering online quizzes in all realms of mathmatics, and step-by-step solutions in case you miss some stuff. Tutoring is good advice, just might not be economical as far as...

It looks like there's some loss of momentum and strength, as we've crept closer to 881. With that being said, this market has been a one way train (more or less) since early March. The herd is behind this move, price is above 50 day sma, and the slope of the 50 day sma turned positive a few...

Here's my own video response to the people in the chicken video. You must listen closely to get the message that I'm purveying. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlKL_EpnSp8

Or create a diversion, to take our minds off of it....maybe a global pandemic would be appropriate. Maybe a govt. airplane "photo op" above NYC would be a good diversion. Oh, hell, let's just scare everyone into submission, they'll be so worried about themselves that they won't care about the...

"Yes, that's right...I said 'grilled unicorn'."

Time for AIG to receive another 50 billion from the government, to pay its counterparties with. This is a yard sale.

Waiting to hear the Fed say the same thing: "Rates left unchanged, due to downside economic risks that still remain."

I don't know if the government is that stupid. They've only got a margin of .2% to revise down, and then you send the markets back into the abyss, b/c it will show that GDP did not improve at all...not a fraction of a point. Worse yet, if the govt revised below last quarters figures, and shows...

With an increase in consumer spending, and the massive amount of govt. spending...it's really interesting that GDP was still down that much. I haven't read any of the reports yet, but sounds like investment component is the albatross around the neck of the GDP number.

I wonder how much of this belonged to Bear, originally.

FYI, your gartlye chart is way better than mine. I'm not someone that normally has my eyes peeled for gartleys, and I stick to the basics when I trade the pattern, but this thing was just glaring at me this morning. Keep up the good work, guys.
