Today's big up move

I was away this afternoon, looking at today's action I'm curious as to what prompted that huge rally. I see the GM CEO announced they're not considering bankruptcy, and the Refco story continues to unfold. Beyond that I don't see any other major news story. I'm guessing it was a combo of the two, but GM didn't really budge in the afternoon, so was it all Refco related?

I know it could be part technical but that would be a pretty big/violent technical move.

Thanks for any input
 
in my humble opinion...


The Recent Drop in Crude oil prices - oil looks to be heading under $60 a barrel soon, possibly by the end of the week.

Optimism that situation in Iraq is improving

No new inflation surprizes in Beige Book

Strong Financials sector


and the Market always reacts strongly to any GM news....



cheers,
 
I had to cover a huge short position.. lol..

Actually, I heard it on CNBC that Fed revised a statment, I guess a previous statement regarding their expected inflation.
