I will confirm this I had to fend off several of the offers, promotions, misleading advertizing strategies, etc. For my recently departed Grandmother. She made it to 102 1/5 years old and she hated the banks and doctors, but she was a lawyer for 70years, go figure? Akuma

Reguardless of anything N. Roubini has to be respected because he stands his ground. As far as the sentiment indicator there seems to be some convergence on the last segment of the chart. That would place the market momentum on the the bullishside. The market absorbed the last geopolitcal issue...
