Can you also post a chart of how much money/credit has been created vs. how much has been destroyed?

Re: have some interesting charts I will post on Monday.
We missed this twice but I think we are in a wave 4 up finally.
Target 1007-1090 on S&P.


Do you think that any of the closing action yesterday (it was nice little run up) was "buy the rumor" on the auto bailout?

The net, for the short term, seems to be direction to the auto companies to use that construction load they got for the new roof, for groceries, to pay utility bills, and maybe a nice dinner out.

It's classic that congress, after lambasting the auto companies for their short term outlook, has decided to repurpose the money allocated for development of more fuel efficient cars to pay for day to day operating expenses.

With the post holiday season effect a few weeks away (layoffs of seasonal employee's, retail stores throwing in the towell when sales weren't enough to make the year a success) do you really think we're in for a 25% rally?

Defaults, foreclosures hit homeowners, housing market at record rate
By Alan Zibel
ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON – A record 1 in 10 American homeowners with a mortgage was either at least a month behind on payments or in foreclosure at the end of September, as the source of housing market pressure shifted from risky loans to the crumbling U.S. economy.

Yes because people are PURPOSELY not paying their mortgage. Principal reduction is all the rage.

Can I buy a house and immediately not pay?

I'm not ruling it out. Another strong day and I'm much more convinced.
