My theory why stocks went up.

Quote from Nine_Ender:

Strong growing corporate earnings, economic recovery, increasing dividends, and low interest rates.

Had to throw those aspects out there they tend to be ignored entirely on Elitetrader. QE2 etc is a US thing and entirely overblown as a market mover on this site. The aspects I listed have been extremely important to markets for decades, much more so then almost everything people chat about.

QE2/QE3/QE4 etc doesn't matter anymore.

Growing corporate earnings, economic recovery, and better jobs are all positive things.

And QE definitely matters. QE4 is definitely reaching...and really QE3 as of now is all speculation.

What is it, what the US is selling to them??? (beside treasury bonds)

Well we tried to sell them cars that were too big for their streets and parking spots, and we didn't bother to put the steering wheel on the correct side either. Then we complained because the Japanese wouldn't buy our cars.

We do, I believe, sell them rice, soybeans, and corn. But, as Mother Nature would have it, American soybeans look like Japanese soy beans! :D
