I don't know why we keep retracing the Q's below 42. Fair Value is probably around 50 or so.

How unfair it will be then when the Q's see 25 before they ever see 50.

You got bigger problems to worry about if you think we'll ever see 25 on the q's again.
 
q's going to 39ish within the next week (if weak) to two (if strong). If it takes two, I believe the probability of a sideways market is much higher than if it hits that point immediately. If it hits it fast, next leg down is 36ish. If it gets to the 36 level, it should prove to be very strong support.
 
Started a new system called Pairs Trading QID QLD 2.0, because that's the model I'm working with as I like to call it.

We are up after hours. I think we should have had more follow through on the rally. The reversal was completely overdone, and stupid. The market wants to go higher, and I'm sure we'll get our confirmation of <i>marked</i> improvement throughout the economy from the Fed this week.

Can you expand on this statement.

What criteria do you use to determine overdone and stupid?

Can the market be smart?

Wouldn't it be more politically correct to refer to the market as "challenged".

Reminds me of the person who hits their thumb with a hammer and calls the hammer stupid.:D :D

The market can be smart when it behaves rationally to economic data.

The data marks the start of the recovery. We got our first positive quarter of GDP growth, followed by an ISM that showed manufacturing expansion. Home sales were outstanding, and way off their low. The reports we get from the Fed will likely confirm for the market that the recovery is just getting started, and I see tens of percent of upside a year from now. Hence, the phrase stupid describes any sell off for the next six months. I'm thinking 3 to 1 odds we might actually see growth in jobs on friday, and that would be an off to the races moment.

Just as it was stupid for the median price to book ratio to be below 0.7 in March, I see the same mispricing of securities taking place right now, where emotion in the form of fear of another 50% drop accentuates market moves to the downside, while limiting upside.

If you're thinking cash for clunkers is why we're higher, think again. This program barely paid out five billion dollars, if that, and considering our economy has an Annual GDP around $14 trillion, five billion is completely negligible.

Ah but isn’t the market a discounting mechanism, a leading indicator of things to come?

Either the good news was already priced into the market before it was released or it wasn’t perceived by the other market participants as that good of news.

It is the perception of the data that moves the market, not the data itself.

Supply & Demand. Fear & Greed. Once you can program that into your formulas you’ll have it made.

Remember the old adage: “Buy the rumor sell the news.”

The Market can’t be smart or stupid, only the people playing it deserve those labels.

Here’s your sign!!!:D
