You're right about today
Looks like we're closing with a full crest of feathers, and everything jumped on the bus that I walked in front of.
Many stocks up double digits.
Ouch! I got bit by something in the rain forest

I think that much of the pressure on *most* stocks (excluding banks) has derived from the absence of stock buybacks, the impairment (if not just distraction) of the gambling arms of the broker/dealers, and J5P selling stocks to fill the SUV.

This helps the banks' balance sheets a ton, but I'm still not sure how much buying power it returns to the stock market.
