a pretty smile and a nice *** but she knows nada about the markets.. She was the same gal who kept saying 'there is so much cash on the sidelines the market has no other way to go but up!' once the nasdaq broke 1800 she stopped saying that.. If im not mistaken, she has started that again lately :) Zeev, alot of bulls are making reference to the huge short position in the nasdaq.. Id be interested in knowing how much of this position was unwound over the last week or 2 and would venture to bet the number has probably come down signifantly last week.. besides- making decisions based on short positions could really land someone in trouble.. Theres probably a damn good reason for so many people to be short the techs right now and I cant think of very many good reasons to be long..

Zeev, I would to that post by "Paul A". Maria has talked a lot about the money on the sidelines. She tends to report from Liquidity Trimtabs has been mentioning in their weekend report. Today someone was in place for Maria and guess what he started out with the same data. What CNBC fails to mention is that Trimtabs runs a hedge fund that goes long and short the market depending upon mutual fund flows, cash takeovers, stock buybacks, IPOs and other new offerings....that could affect the stock market. A contrarian would think that the market has to go up based upon the trimtabs data that is being used. I also agree that those lots of money on the sidelines reports turned out to be a big joke and I believe she got that data from Trimtabs as well. BTW--I do note that when CNBC does the report, it usually causes a downward move in the futures, for some reason.
