My problem is that every other problem that brought down the market in late summer is still there (foreign financial crises, domestic political crises, enormous consumer debt levels, etc). What could be driving this rally?

John,

Exactly what I'm thinking. Still semi-bearish. One difference, however, is that the small caps are at much reduced valuations from earlier in the year. The Dow stocks have not showed the same weakness, and this dichotomy still causes caution IMO.

Can the small caps rise while the big caps tread water or even fall?
