Anybody that is short and giggling needs to keep in mind that the pattern on these bad news gaps down is for panic buying to start in the futures pits (bargain hunters I'm sure) and for us to end the day green. Might want to look to cover the initial plunge if the futs pits light up.

O ma Gawd, Oral are you listening to Elaine Choa's spin* on the unemployment numbers? what a piece of work she is. must have graduated from CNBC "School of Spin" Now Kudlow putting the "lagging indicator" spin on the report. Guess I should never under estimate them. though I rarely do. *"We could almost look at this in a positive light because it means 611K people are now re-entering the market looking for jobs. this means people are now positive on the jobs market which is positive." Or maybe it means their bennefits are done and they are out of money, no?

My humble understanding is that the stock prices are hiking because of the pumped up liquidity. Where does all this money go? Not to the negative real interest rates. Not to housing, since everyone and their dog has double mortgages by now. It goes to some very misguided investments (with such low discount rates) and of course into the stock markets. Who cares if that leads to the next bubble? Not the Fed, apparently...
