What goes up must come down!
Dr. Marc Faber

While 2003 was highly unusual in that all asset classes increased in value, Dr Faber thinks 2004 will see winners and losers. Contrarians should short the US stock market and buy the US dollar, and accumulate oil stocks on market weakness as Chinese demand for oil is set to rocket over the next decade.

I'm not using Ameritrade as a predictor or even a contrary indicator. For me, it's another liquidity indicator, similar to the others (IPOs, fund flows, insiders activity, corp buybacks) that people like Bidermann use. Given that Ameritrade speculators have now piled up $3.4 billion in margin debt, their activites are important, lowest strata or not.

<If you are going to print money then not why use it for a good cause, like put the people to work on water infrastructure, power grid, schools, transportation. Build a solid foundation for growth. The U.S. chooses to throw it at the stock market and war which I can not understand for the life of me.>

Bingo. But then the greediest and crudest and evilest of the super rich would not make as much money.
