Right. 1450 is possible if the market does reverse. Pretty
large put interest in March QQQQ, all in the money puts.
This often drives the market in the absence of news. Add
re-test to that, and the market will have a rally.

However, atomic blasts are going on in the credit market, and
this does not seem to stop regardless of what the Fed does.
The desease is spreading.

Ted spread moving down in a major way, a sign of somewhat
reduced stress in the credit market. A bit of a bounce in
housing prices here, and the Spring season has not yet
started.

Very bearish bets on stock options for March.

All reasons for cautious optimism short term.

However, the CDO/CDS market is still getting worse, not better.
Relentless selling and folks jumping out of the windows.
