The Bears have been real good at battling and whining as these markets slowly grind higher. But whenever they have tried to take these markets down in earnest over the past couple of years, they fail. It's not due to any lack of reasons. We got the twin U.S. deficits as the catalyst for an upward surge in interest rates. Another worry is that we are entering into a new era of protectionism. Illegal immigration is permeating the news these days and the cries for the closing our borders is growing louder by the day. Oh, and I forget to mention that the recent rise in crude oil is bolstering the bears' case. If you take a look at what's going on in Nigeria, Iran and Venezuela, is it any wonder that crude oil is only trading at $68? Moreover, many are worried that the Fed will overshoot by raising rates too much as they have been known to do. So, if everything looks so dark and gloomy, why is the RUT, MID, NYSE Composite Index, Dow Transports, all hitting new all time highs on a regular basis? It must be a little more than just speculation? What is the hidden reason?
