yep...just as in bull markets the sell-offs are often sharp and short-lived, the opposite applies to bear markets..there the rallies are the mirror image of the bull market sell-offs.

what's more, it is pretty clear that in this market intervention and tape painting have become commonplace. history has shown over and over that once these games intensify in order to try to force a bear market to become a bull market, the instigators fail and get their heads handed to them in the end.

best recent example: Japan. their mufu industry lost 96% of its assets in the 5 years following the popping of the bubble. the hubris of the tape painters was in the end their downfall....
