Zeev, at the top the market was $18+ trillion (March 2000) of which NASDAQ was $6.8 or so.

My read from January 5, until April 19 is around $100 billion from the FED graphs. Be careful to measure all banks. It went from $1000 to $1040 billion during the period.

Now all this does not include personal debt growth(apx $32 billion ... FEB and MARCH over $20 billion....see my previous post) and new mortgages which money is going back into the market!

Now you mentioned AMZN well they raised money (debt) overseas as many others and it does not show up in the FED statistics.

I would say you are bit optimistic <GG>

as to your remark Could it be that somehow, a lot of the money that is going into IPO actually found its way there from bank lending and corporate commercial paper?

Think about stock buy backs....

Haim

Zeev, Haim- appreciate all your postings.. priceless...

but I gotta say that as an active investor/trader, who still practices the old art of trying to attach some reason to why stocks go up or down- my hands are in the air..

Im sitting almost 100% in all cash.. There is just no way to make sense of why this market behaves like it does.. Have never seen this before and probably never will again...

enjoy the weekend!
