Skipperr: That indicates the general population trying to jump back on the Bull...which I suspect was to soon! Regards, LG

<AMG equity inflows> Getting interesting that we rally Wed & sellof Thur with frequency lately. Sure seems to me like they want to pump up the inflow numbers desperately on their last chance Wed night. Then we have a big Thur selloff that's not in the AMG numbers reported on Thur nights so it doesn't look bad. Thing is, it seems to me that this is an indication of a severe lack of new money/liquidity that will STAY in the market. Seems to be the SAME money going in and right back out so they can use the same money again for another big motivational rally. Don't know how long that can go on before the price gets high enough for some of the OLD money to get out. These funds with 20:1 leverage we're reading about must get absolutely murdered on margin interest when they can't force the mkt up. If the little guys could collectively decide to sit on their hands for a month, the margin calls due to equity erosion due to margin interest alone on these tremendously leveraged funds would surely continue a downtrend. Now if we can only get regular traders to not BTD for a month, patience would be greatly rewarded IMO. BWDIK etc. Anyone else think it seems to be the same relatively small amount of money treading water and why? thanks in advance for any discussion, Tom
