Why does the market LOVE Obama?

It's just QE.

right considering the market capitalization of all stock exchanges in the US is about 22 trillion dollars in equities and 38 trillion in bonds : more than 1 trillion dollars a year from the fed IS SIGNIFICANT IMHO.

Quote from Navin Johnson:

The market loves sequestration. The S&P 500 has increased about 13% since sequestration became law on August 2, 2011 (Budget
Control Act of 2011).

hmm that's about the same time I got a blood clot in my leg.

Don't worry the market should correct soon, as I had surgery 2 weeks ago to prevent another one.

I've been trying to find a chart (daily or weekly) showing the fed purchases vs the stock market. I haven't been able to find one.

I would plot it myself but I haven't found a data set with Fed purchases either. I'm on their list to get the email every day showing what they buy and sell (and since Jan. 1 they have been a big buyer nearly every day) but I can't find the historical data. (I don't save the emails so I don't have the data either).
