Gotta love ZERO RISK in the SP500 = $$$

In case you are wondering why it spiked up, i think it might be China cutting interest rates.

edit: yep, they cut by 25bp at 12.15pm uk time, index futures, gold, oil all spiked all the news.
 
What can I say, looks the opposite of what I expected, doesn't look good, I will keep my short on till it gets stopped out. If this continues, then it only confirms that this uptrend is mostly driven by inflation, in which case this is negative for all of us.
 
romik, technicals (even though we disagree on the interpretation of the charts) go out the window when fundamentals like monetary policy (e.g. china cutting rates) assert themselves.

If they say we rallying today due to China, then why did markets tumble straight after China cut rate last time? That's not the reason, if markets believed that us interest rates would rise, then that would cap inflation (not the reported one, but everybody knows life is getting more expensive overall, do your own survey), if they stay or even chance of getting LOWER, then that only means prices are going to keep rising (bubbles).
 
Governments are feeding a dieing dog food stuffed with steroids, unemployment at 40 year low, really? Do you believe that? I don't.

Another great call, wish I could get over my hangup of thinking this market needs to go down and just be a wild bull, LOL, i think the market looks incredibly toppy at 2070 though, but its hard to tell if im just being stubborn at this point, but i like to play this game in my head with stubborn parabolic shorts in the equity market where i think to myself "Ok, whose left to buy at this point" And usually when i cant think of a good answer, the stocks react the way i think, but who knows whith the TrollES.
 
Told myself this was not a battle i wanted to be in yesterday, but i cant help it, lol, short ES at 2070, USD is going through the roof this morning as the market gaps up another 20 points, something has to give here.
