Ok. Let me try this: <i>Stocks are too strong for oil to go down</i> but <i>if oil goes down stocks will only get stronger</i>. Does this make sense (because there's no contradiction between what I said and what you said)? I explained the logic I used in this recent...

That's exactly what I overlooked and why I underestimated the NASDAQ's strength.

I think it is mainly about changes in market sentiments. When stocks got a break earlier this month from declining bond yields, which index led a stock market rally?: It was the (very) interest-rate sensitive Dow Jones. Today, which index is leading the rally?: The growth-sensitive NASDAQ...

I was expecting bonds to go down and drag stocks and oil with them but insteadThe NASDAQ is still welcoming and celebrating news and comments about solid growth; Bonds are going down, as expected, but mainly because of the way the long end is incorporating additional inflation worries; Oil and...

Stocks are too strong for oil to go down.

I'm a swing/position trader who likes to ride 4-8 week waves (often until option expiration); and for me an opportunity is when two things occur simultanously: 1. My statistical data is telling me that one side has exausted a lot of resources to bring prices where they currently are while the...

Well, the problem is that today's drop killed the opportunity I was waiting for. I want to get short but I was expecting bonds to go up first, before going down for 4 to 6 weeks. So right now, there's no good selling or buying opportunity.

Hilarious! It looks like it doesn't it?

The perspective on inflation didn't change between the previous meeting and this one. <b>January 31st, 2006 meeting</b> Core inflation has stayed relatively low in recent months and longer-term inflation expectations remain contained. Nevertheless, possible increases in resource utilization...

I didn't understand the Fed Meeting charts right away myself. What I finally figured out is that each chart plots the probability of 4 different outcomes at the end of the meeting specified by the chart title. For example, the <i>May Meeting</i> chart uses a green line to show the fluctuating...

I'm on the sideline and waiting to see if we'll get the kind of reassuring comments from the Fed to create a short rally.

and also -- THE LITTLE TRAIN THAT COULD for small portfolios with big percentage returns.

Your post wasn't really about the aliases problem, wasn't it? I can think of much more obvious examples than z10.
