BEARMOVE> TRIM TABS is right.

As fast as AG will print money, the CEO's and wall street will print shares, then suddenly the greed swamps him, even he can't keep up. Then, the banks can float the additional supply is to sell existing inventory to raise cash to cover. As sluggish as the economy is and with all this excess capacity, the money printing does not flow into the real economy, into goods production, and wages, its flowing into stocks, bonds, real estate and commodities. The trouble is you must keep pumping more and more to build the momentum, but when you turn if off it goes poof! Its all a mirage of money.

AG has pumped like a madman this week two coupon passes of 2 billion, hes got over $30 billion in repo's out, he has pumped in over 12 billion in repo's just this week! Tommorrow the deck is stacked high, about $13 billion comes due. AG has to keep pumping or the whole shooting match will come tumbling down. He'll need to take the outstanding repo's to to new highs to push the SnP up over the head and shoulder neckline.

All we can do is watch, and see if he has the guts and firepower to keep this going.

simple explanation for only a 3 year correction.....a powerful bull market only has short ugly corrections....think bullish ....nobody else is...unless u like being part of the lynch mob.....the most powerfull bull market in history took a relatively short breather......did you know that the advance decline line is screaming and is in to historic all time uncharted territory??....instead of asking me...who you dont think much of...ask any "qualified" technician the same question. and by qualified i mean with credentials as to their market timing ability by an outside agency ...why do you think I have so little respect for those who call themselves technical analysts but are so negative on the market....simple.....the biggest bear in the world has been dead wrong on the market and his performance is tracked by an outside agency..and he is a member of MENSA...so what does that tell ya...tells me that if a mensa cant catch a historic bull then anyone who isnt a mensa is a real amateur bear......in any event all bears have and continue to over play their hands....and professional bears from experience have never been boolish for any period of time in the past 30 years that has exceeded the period of time they were bearish....all the while the market continues to go up....the higher it goes the more severe the correction...isnt it amazing...these professional bears....get real bearish when the market is taken down hard and still get bearish if the market is taken up with no sizzle....and still stay bearish if the market is taken up fast and furious because now its a blow off top and real overbot...inother words ....bull is not in their vocabulary....wyisthat you ask.....simple.....they think that fundamentals have something to do with the stock market....when in fact its the stock market that has everything to do with the fundamentals....now i hope thats not to deep for you to understand.....until you wipe from your mind that fundamentals have something to do with the market. you will forwever be a loser....and will allways ask that annoying question....."why is the market going up"....sound familiar????
