      Thursday's Data Will Set the Tone
      my "guess" is the data will be dovetailed into the prevailing sentiment
      :-) ie, the info'll be more important a few days from now than in re to their true import, than the immediate market reaction'll be - just a thought

      re the upcoming supply, does seem to push rates up when so much debt keeps being issued, yuk!

      A New SEC Induced Rally?
      re: "Where does this end, and is it really the sign of a healthy market, rally or not?" -

      and if it's not a healthy market, eventually, there probably won't be a rally or not to worry about, unfortunately

      still, for my druthers, a fair and uniform protection from naked shorting, which is what i assume you're writing about (not specified), is already on the books, but needs, again, fair and uniform enforcement

      Why the Housing Bill Won't Help the Housing Market
      re the first commentater's "...always LOCAL...."

      i'm always suspicious when someone harps so hard on the "local" gong

      ie, why have we been force fed a national housing bail out bill?

      Is a Ban on Short Financial ETFs on the Horizon?
      long but great read, well worth while

      re the inverse etf's, aren't they sorta the transparency type answer you'd suggested needed at the beginning of the article?

      so my guess, especially since the tally of how many is clearly know, and commissions are even more easlily collected, they'll survive

      at least i hope so :-)

      Invest and Stop Working
      re: "...Another cautionary thing to add is that this strategy worked in Canada, where healthcare is practically free. If you lived in the US, however, you would need to save more simply for the rising healthcare costs."

      and why is it again (to those opposed), that universal health care is such a bad thing? for me, as an individual?

      Economic Report Summary: Disappointing Retail Sales
      i guess the true impact of what these reports should've had on the markets and people's evaluations of what's happening in the economy got steamrolled by the co-ordinated "let's pump up the financials so we can issue more stock while we can" efforts of...uh, free market forces? :-)

      but more to the point, your info is great, and will probably come out more and in commentator's details in the following weeks

      thanks!

      Historic Financial Collapse Underway?
      re: "...I felt like I was watching a kind of financial Nuremberg trial...."

      i've remarked on other articles on seeking alpha that the stuff going on in re to fannie and freddie, and selective enforcement of existing naked shorting rules reminds, not exactly, but in tone, etc, reminds me of pre-wwii germany - not good

      but a probable very negative future for your son, or my granddaughters, is not necessary -

      fuels alternatives are already available and, in ten yrs, could replace dependence on oil;

      the tax structure could be overhauled (i personally like the flat tax, despite it's con's, 'cause of its psychologically promoting quality of a sense of fairness and incentive equal for all);

      and a way to provide at least the level of health care available to the rest of the industrialized world currently not available to us, could be found

      a lot of could's - i know

      but then, who would've thought, in the late 1700's, the world would even see a country such as ours even existing to possibly squander such an improbable "could" ?

      Short Selling: Others Want Protection Too
      the less unfairness applied by the govt to our everyday lives, the better the long term prognosis - but both govt application and thinking long term appear to be challenges in themselves :-)
