Anyone think that perchance we could close down?????? Reversal day?????

Nah, that would not be supportive of the bull market.

(OK, what's the matter with a little wishful thinking? The voodoo queen's dance doesn't appear to be working....)

Window Dressing

I don't know Michael Burke. but I'm sure he's a well respected fellow.

However, his experience and reality---or at least the perception of reality which is just as important---suggest otherwise.

Perhaps he worked in a very conservative arena, perhaps he knew not all that went on, perhaps it is indeed a sham as he says.

But obviously, for someone who is day or week trading; Playing the window dressing (or undressing) phenomenae is the way to go.

It's absolutely preposterous to infer there is no more or less volatility during these 4 periods of the year than any other specific time.
