    Hi, K5! Are you capable of thinking for yourself, or can only copy and paste the words of others?

    When you say "the words of others" you mean facts that you would rather not see in print.

    Too bad. The truth is more important than your feelings, you damn NancyBoy

    Hey, K5, just because some nut job conspiracy-theory web site published that tripe doesn't mean it's the truth. Weak minded people like you are so gullible.

    Shouldn't you be crying to the moderators to fight your battles for you?

    Clearly you are not capable yourself

    Interesting article on high pessimism/shorts and how that can fuel the current rally.

    Short interest is apparently at an 8 year high. If they have to cover their shorts in a rising market, that's a lot of fuel.

    on the other hand, they see a market worth shorting.

    Skepticism is one thing this rally hasn’t lacked.

    Amid its biggest about-face in nine decades, a funny thing has happened in the U.S. stock market, where rather than loosen their grip bears have grown ever-more impassioned. They’ve sent short interest to an eight-year high and above $1 trillion, by one analyst’s math. Position reports from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission show mutual fund managers are more skeptical now than any time since at least 2010.

    In short, disbelief is running rampant after $2 trillion was restored to share values in six months. A chorus of Wall Street prognosticators says that’s a big reason the rally can keep going.

    U.S. stock futures on Wednesday pointed to a modestly higher open, getting a lift from a rally in oil prices and putting the Dow industrials on track for some stability after a 134-point drop.

    During Tuesday's slide, it became clear the selloff "is likely more of a significant trading correction following a major rally than the start of a new downtrend, for a number of reasons," said Colin Cieszynski, chief market strategist at CMC Markets, in a note.

    The reasons include oil futures managing to rebound during Tuesday's session, and gains for gold fading, Cieszynski said.

    Hey, K5, provide links to legitimate sites if you want us to believe this shite isn't made up. My guess is you can't.

    Also from the New Yorker: "K5 is full of shit."

    See how easy it is to claim legitimacy for something you made up? Without a link to a legitimate source, anything you say is assumed to be carp.

    You are a special kind of moron, aren't you?

    Can't use google? Of course you can. But then you'd find out my posts are accurate and that would suck for you.

    today's econ:

    mortgage apps: -2.0% week over week, but refis up 7% w/w.

    job creation index is at highest level since the crisis. No sign of recession there.

    I have used Google and found your posts are copied and pasted from nut job conspiracy-theory web sites. The are sensationalized fiction for the most part.

    Which websites were those?

    The New Yorker?

    Does it not tell you anything about yourself and your worldview that you must consistently resort to lies to defend your statements?

    muy loca,

    I believe any comparison of corporate debt level to market capitalization makes the debt level appear to be less of a concern. We have already seen companies debt downgrades when the market cap of their stock drops. One only has to look to Chesapeake Energy or Valaent Pharmaceutical as recent examples. Furthermore, the debt is further leveraged by those companies that increase corporate debt to buyback stock and to increase dividend payments. I see it very similar to the homeowner that takes out HELOC at the top of the market to buy a second home. Everything works out fine if the assets continue to rise, which is rarely the case.

    w/w? Really? What does that tell you? Nothing.

    If you think it's meaningful, then interpret it the right way: people can't afford houses, and those who can need to refi so that they can get cash out by claiming that they will use the funds to improve the property.

    And hey, how about that Q1 GDP?

    If this b.s. couldn't have serious effects on my life, it would be funny.

    Atlanta Fed GDP Now:

    "The GDP Now model forecast for real GDP growth (seasonally adjusted annual rate) in the first quarter of 2016 is 0.4 percent on April 5, down from 0.7 percent on April 1. After yesterday morning's light vehicle sales release from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis and the manufacturing report from the U.S. Bureau of the Census, the forecast for real GDP growth declined from 0.7 percent to 0.4 percent due to declines in the forecasts for real consumer spending growth and real equipment investment growth. The forecast for real GDP growth remained at 0.4 percent after this morning's international trade report from the U.S. Census Bureau, as a slight decline in the forecast for real net exports was offset by a slight increase in the forecast of real equipment investment growth."
