I agree, there are forces at work to create a rally
however I will be playing it safe at the resistance
levels, as there still is the longer term problem
of to much debt , and if the rally gets over heated
Even if Spam cuts rates; if he cuts the repos with
the other hand , a serious problem can pop up.
The first rate cut will drop the value of the Dollar
and while people think his rate cuts helped us in
98 they don't seem to remember it was only after
the 3rd cut our market stopped falling.
Another thing they failed to look at is when we did
start up from the 98 lows most Foreign markets climbed
even faster than we did.( dollar adjusted )
We had benefited before that as being seen as a safe
heaven as most foreign markets had hit a low,
before we fell, but as soon as not finding a "safe heaven" was a prime concern Even the Japan Funds did as good
or beat our dot.com fund craz.
While most American investors were elated to see
our market go up , they never looked at the relative
climb of some foreign markets, most but not all
climbed faster than the S&P did.
