What Will Happen If America Returns to an Historical Savings Rate?

Trader Mark,
This is well thought out and carefully written. Thank you for sharing.

John Hussman: The Market Is Not in Uncharted Territory

Thank you, John Hussman. I appreciate your analysis.

Stock Market: Is the Rally 'Real?'

Simple, straightforward and cogent. Thank you.

The Market's Disassociation with Reality

"Let's face it, there have been plenty of market crashes, where the stock indexes fell by more than 40%, and we aren't even close to that."

Really? Now that is really stretching the numbers.

Check your math, sir. From peak to trough - from October 2007 to October 10, 2008, the SP 500 fell from 1560 to 844. 40% off of 1560 is SP 936. We fell 46% from peak to the recent trough.

Agree that the credit markets will present great opportunity. How do you invest in those -- as a small investor?

Summer time is low volume time.

Time To Sell This Bear Market Bounce?

Duru,
Thanks for the thoughts. I agree with most. Problem is you offer no reason for shortin the Q's, and so far that trade's been a big loser. I'd rather short the DIA or the SPX, which I will on the next big up day.

What Goes Up... Short-Term Reprieve Likely in August

Andrew,
Very helpful article. Now that we've given up much of the gains, do you anticipate a continuation of the ST move up, or a big trend move down?

High Likelihood of a Market Crash

Hey, "Expert" and jdlech: The RBS analyst and this guy are talking about 300 points on the SPX, not the Dow. That's about 2000-3000 points on the Dow, depending upon which stocks get taken down more. That IS a crash.

Not saying it's going to happen. But there is quite a bit of indecision in the market - in terms of volume indicators as well.
