Dave:
The S&P average and the long bond interest rate have an inverse relationship for over 10 yrs. It correlation held very good until Oct 1998. I believe that the gains between Oct 98 and now will be retraced to some degree. It may be 1275 ... 1225 ... maybe 1175 intraday before we rebound meaningfully.
Call it a bubble; Call it we all can't be rich; Call it you can't fight the fed; Call it whatever you want.
RMBS is a stock for the LT investor. I believe it was not Stuart but FMR that was selling. FMR unloaded over 1 M shares from 12/31/99 to 3/31/99. I don't think even one or more several individuals can reverse FMR actions. RMBS will still be good trading/short stock. I can't see the short interest going down much with this downturn. Where does one build a RMBS position; from anywhere they wish. My personal feeling is that things will be overdone on the down side pretty quickly. I was expecting a pop in RMBS stock before AUG option expiration dat but we will have to see what effect Mr. Greenspan has on the market AUG 24.
Still think RMBS has to pop up signifcantly after Intel IDF because the news announcements will be constant in early SEP.
