With the August labor figures just released showing wage increases of .07 an hour (about 6.5% annually), do not expect the FED to ease in the near term. Without the possibility of lower short term rate in the near future, expect the market to tank.

Hi LG:

I just read your comments on the chart pattern and realized that I forgot you on my list. Sorry.

My main problem with an up day is that I cannot understand why anyone would take a strong long position today. The world situation is just too uncertain. Perhaps the argument that post-Labor-day weeks are up weeks? But I think that this only works in an up market, in a down market, my guess is that it should go the other way (always reinforce the present trend).

Good trading to you.

Regards,

Phil
