>>> May 27, 1970. On an adjusted basis, this equates to around -6200 given the current number of issues traded. Wouldn't that be scary?!<<<<

Saw some real estate charts today that matched peaks in the early 70's . . . bubble on XENA.

For those still shot in the hiney with goldilocks buy the dip-o-rama elixir:

Polite, almost fashionable debate . . . is increasingly heard on Wall Street, pertaining to what is still broadly perceived as "minimal odds" for the Asian Contagion to impact Latin America just enough to affect the United States economy. At the same time, the financial press is discovering a large number of empty containers heading West on U.S. railroads and subsequently traversing Transpacific shipping routes; an important clue as to the evaporation of exports that we've noted here (through privately-sourced data) for quite some time. The belated media revelations are in a sense a manifestation of the Street beginning to question the permabull strategists & economists whose still-proclaimed "perfect world" economic backdrop makes just a bit less common-sense, at least to anyone capable of fifth-grade math (no offense to fifth-graders). Simply add up all the amounts of trade this Nation does with Asia and Latin America in-toto, and you get something in the vicinity of 40+ % of total U.S. exports. Add Canada, which already is suffering a little-noticed (as far as financial analysts are concerned) quasi-devaluation of its own, and the die is well cast.
