Black Monday? Bull Monday?
- Thread starter DisciplinedHedg

I listened to a radio show Friday and heard one guy saying, 'my money is NOT going into the stock market.' The one who said, 'I am investing in stocks' was typecast as the young one who could afford to wait 30 years for a payoff. No more hopes of doubling one's money in a week, I gather. The speculative froth is appearing to go limp.
The interview in Barrons with Jeremy Grantham could be damaging to the psyche of 'sophisticated' investors.
If nothing else, people might be given to consider hedging strategies.

U.S. Mulls Military's Domestic Role
(AP) - Homeland security chief Tom Ridge says the threat of terrorism may force government planners to consider using the military for domestic law enforcement, now largely prohibited by federal law. President Bush has called on Congress to thoroughly review the law that bans the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines from participating in arrests, searches, seizure of evidence and other police-type activity on U.S. soil. The Coast Guard and National Guard troops under the control of state governors are excluded from the Reconstruction-era law, known as the "Posse Comitatus Act." More...

Can it be that Rubin's buddies are pounding this market for political reasons, and his buddies in the press are feeding the flames.

"We're definitely getting close."
I live in my own demented little world of T.A. I read no financial publications, IBD, WSJ, Barrons etc. I don't watch the CNBC clowns. I read the L.A. times daily and watch Bloomberg, usually on mute, for breaking news. My game is T.A. within the larger reality of world political / econ events as percieved by me , not writers. I no longer play equities, only the minis as of April.
These are my perceptions of the moment. Pull up the mo. chart of the S&P. We are in a multiple complex head and shoulders pattern that is playing out with incredible symmetry. There is the potential of large energy confluences around the 800 number. 800 is the 70% retrace of the Jan 95 to March 2000 move. It is natural support from 97. There is natural upward progression through time in the all mkts. A trendline from 91 thru early 94 representing the natural progression, where we would be without the bubble, is at 800. I covered a large NQ short position Thurs and Fri that I had been holding since April. I like to travel between events( turns )not be part of them. If it does fall through 800 we could well see around 700- 720, the next fib line and support from 96. I won't be going long untill we are back above 900 solidly. That's a peek into my demented T.A. head fwiw.
