Quote from nitro:
The rest of the world reacted in accord with the information content of the Abu Dubai debt situation. On the other hand, US markets are reacting by buying the dip.
One of the cornerstones of information theory is that low probability events carry more information than the usual. The Abu Dubai event falls under the high information content.
It is possible that US markets are betting that they get bailed out, but imo the reaction of US markets to this event is like that of a race horse on blinders.
Totally agree. The world caught a chill, America partied.
Sound familiar?
But the desire rally does not seem to be shaping up.
