Unsettling Trends in Treasury Bond, Dollar and Commodity ETFs

Gold is up because many people know that there "might" be higher inflation coming down the pike, but more so because they know the US dollar appears worthless right now.

Stocks keep going up simply because this a liquidity driven bubble number 3. The same thing happened from 1995 -2000 and from 2003 to 2007. There is no denying it. I am riding that wave, and will happily be selling to the unsuspecting general public when the time is right. That is when (as per history) they finally capitulate on the upside and just "have" to own stocks.

Bonds going up are a sign that many, many people, both private and institutional money, do not believe that with 20% real unemployment, lower net worths, much lower consumer spending, et al, that we are actually having a real recovery.

We are in no mans land right now, where each week we get a glimmer of hope, then a dose of reality.

If you got in the market like I did at S & P 700, just keep riding it. As long as you understand that this is not a "real" market advance, you will make money, guaranteed.

You will sell your shares to the viewers of Cramer and alike and you will be looked upon in awe, as the other side stands there asking themselves: "How do these people keep making money in the market, while every time I get, in the market crashes?"
