i must say that you made me feel better with this post. i do feel quite miserable these days, i am not doing anything right :-( i spent today looking for the reason behind the huge blocks and surpressed price. i always wish to understand. i mean not just find out about this particular stock but generally - if it means anything. or if it's just that two funds agreed upon a trade. but maybe there is no way of knowing. then it's ok :-) thank you again GZ for your replies.

Krugman transitioned his message to neutral / bullish. Professor Roubini would probably lose credibility if he did the same. Therefore, eventually expect Roubini to keep quiet and disappear.

It's the rally of death. The bulls don't like such things, but I even had a thread on SI devoted to it. A pretty regular thing (if you consider filing for bankruptcy "regular" -g-), and profitable. But you can't get stuck in it. Inherently bear market stuff. Subject 53115

Well, apparently today was Gold rally, stock dump, bond dump, and dollar dump. This kind of very, very bearish stuff. Subject 57110 This kind of market behavior did not last more than a day in the past, as normally bond dump leads to stock rally. But today the reason was... Britain's sovereign credit rating was put on watch by spoos, and some silly folks connected the dots to USA. If it lasts, it could be very bearish, as SPOOS will never downgrade USA, but folks might. -g/ng- Message 25661062 So far the weirdness was a day as well, and, since bonds were dumped, we should see a rally tomorrow... Unless of course... things changed. Gulp! Now, the funny thing - Spoos probably did it to stop the British pound from rallying fast, and then it crashed up! This is creepy...
