<It is foreign inflows that are taking the markets upwards.>

You may be right. But where is the volume?

I agree that there must be a lot of money on the sidelines, but where is it parked? Are institutions sitting on cash, too? Money has fled muni bonds. Is it going to tsy paper, too? I think more foreign inflow is going to tsy paper than equities, but can't point to any hard evidence of that.

US dollar down, gold/silver down from highs (temporary?)... where is the money? All cash? That only pays off in deflationary environments.

I'm not saying you're wrong -- I just can't figure out what everyone is doing with all that cash since stuffing mattresses doesn't seem likely for the big pots of corporate/institutional cash that must be out there somewhere.
