<<this action tells us that the bear market has plenty of life left in it even after all this time>> Because of the huge increase that Hedge Funds have had in capital inflow i think these eruptions will be around for sometime. They are much less regulated and can play games all they want. I would love to be a fly on the wall of highest capitalized and most successful Hedge Funds. They have reached a capitalization that can move markets. To be blunt, if i was a Hedge Fund manager; when ever the Market was well oversold, i would like to go heavily weighted OTM calls and then use my shorts to drive market forward where the profit from my calls would at minimum match my diminished profits from my shorts that were used to run up market. This way i then can re-short the market. They do the math right, and they are going to have a yield this year that will make their clients quite happy.(the bad hedge funds will go extinct rather fast) But that scenario of control was impossible until very recently. But from what i have read, they now control enough of the market to jerk it around,especially since they wheel and deal and churn on a basis Mutual Funds are powerless to do. Regards Hedge Funds i don't even know if they are regulated enough such that several big ones could be working in collusion with each other.( but if they did, they would wield extreme power) I have to consider this as i have seen things happen that in the past i would have thought nigh impossible.Max
