There are a lot of bullish signs but we aren't having the liquidity pump previous bottoms benefited from (minus the recent unknown shady TGA spike I mentioned before).
Potential double bottom the last few weeks. Small caps leading the charge. Largest DJI rally in decades. Breadth good except tech.
I don't like lumber, copper weakness though. Housing dropping. Low savings, high debt climbing.
As long as Fed is draining, I don't think we zoom like past bear recoveries. We can only go so far until the tank is empty.
We had a 2 day rally and FOMO is already back. This isn't TINA either with treasuries yielding 4%.
I'm seriously considering closing everything and just rolling 4 month treasuries so I can stop staring at the screen and get some work done on the land.
Talking about debt and savings... At auction Saturday, 4.6 acres, all wooded with a one room small shouse (shed/house, not up to code). Brought $175k. I about died. We all figured maybe $40k, cut/sell the timber, build on it and flip it to some California sucker. Californian bought it for cash. Realtor was there and said they are driving up prices. I told her where I lived and she said my place is up over 300% of what it was 4-5 years ago. I guess I can never move. I couldn't afford the cap gains tax. Crazy.
We saw stuff going for new prices. All I got was a shop vac and some clamps. Prices were ridiculous.
