<<<As long as bonds rally hard on the slightest weakness in stocks virtually no chance of a substantial selloff in equities IMHO. agree Crimson. In fact weak gov't macro statistics at this point are bullish because individual company earnings are still showing strong results.

I agree. Everybody knows that, I think. The same about bond spreads - as long as they are narrow, no chance of a selloff in equities. Fed's printing will cause another rally. Note that all the printing, and there has been lots of it in the past month, did not push equities much higher. bart13 just made this point. My question is why? Equities are high, so what is the Fed worried about now? It may be some derivative mess under the rug? Or is it just cause the Fed wants to print, now?
