Quote from denner:
The equity indicies, in particular, aren't forward looking. They are like the retarded cousin in relation to every other market. Of course, some might argue that the market itself isn't really a "market" after all, but sort of a quasi-political index that provides cover for all the failed policies we've had to endure for at least the past decade.
Quote from Covertibility:
I think market is down a bit because GDP is expected to be 1.6% when it's reported this Friday. Watch for anyone dropping their numbers before the event and any forecasts for Q3.
