It's Only Money wealthdaily.com The U.S. debt clock has surpassed $12 trillion and the annual deficit has ballooned past $1.5 trillion. I've read some numbers that say if you take into account the total amount of personal debt and unfunded liabilities such as Social Security, the U.S. is leveraged to more than 350% to GDP. But let's push those skeletons back into a closet for another day and just look at the numbers published by the government in July. Here is the chart for U.S. debt as a percent of GDP: That chart can expand. In Japan, debt to GDP is 160%. But then again, the Japanese stock market is at 10,000 down from 40,000 in 1990. According to Brietbart: "President Barack Obama outlined new multibillion-dollar stimulus and jobs proposals Tuesday, saying the nation must continue to 'spend our way out of this recession' until more Americans are back at work. Without giving a price tag, Obama proposed a package of new spending for highway, bridge and other infrastructure projects, deeper tax breaks for small businesses and tax incentives to encourage people to make their homes more energy efficient." $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ As you can tell, the S&P 500 is at a crossroads; a juncture; a tipping point... The unmovable object of the three-year downtrend has run into the unstoppable force of this year's suckers rally. Technical analysis guys would say that the longer trend is the most dominant. The secondary indicators — such as the MACD crossover — suggest that we are heading down in the short term. The dividend yield would tell value investors that we are back below 2%, or where we were at the 2007 peak. That is not a bottom.
