Market Conspiracy Theory #1: the rotational/cyclical/interest rate fear-mongers will bleat from the pulpits tonight and tomorrow and quickly drive the overall market down severely by midmorning. Then there will be one or more false recoveries before a slow rise leaves the market down slightly to unchanged by eod. Wednesday will also see a more mild selloff followed by a recovery that finishes with all averages up. Thursday, Friday, and Monday will post modest-to-good gains (with typical volatility) as we climb the "wall of fear." After the Fed announces a 1/4 pt raise, all averages will skyrocket and suck everybody back in. Then the specialists will REALLY tank the market like they did during the first week of January. Once the individual investor and Ma and Pa Kettle are completely seasick and finally throw in the towel, the scooping will begin in earnest and a new monster rally will be launched. Horrible thoughts and hallucinations; not to be taken seriously...just had to get it out of my system--MK--
