RALLY

I expect nothing less than a strong rally in the US markets today. Asia is a stream of green arrows. India up over 2 % , China up nearly 2 % , Japan up 1.2%. Europe is very strong too and the momentum, should carry across the Atlantic.

The Yen has seen a big decline which should help us plenty since, it was this 'unwinding' of the carry trade and subsequent appreciation in the Yen, that was a big factor in the stock market plummet.

The economic data released today has been pretty crappy. Lets see if that puts a lid on US equities. Productivity is down and same store sales stink.

Greenspan is at it again . Now there is a 1/3 chance of a recession. Hmmmm. How does Mr. smarty pants figure that out. 1/3. Why not 2/5 or 1/6 or 30% or............

Will bad debt from the sub prime mortgage fall out be limited ? Paulson certainly thinks so. I do not.

The plan today is to expect a rally. Nothing less than 100 points on the Dow, 25 on the Nasdaq and 15 on the S&P 500. And we have Bernanke speaking . Will he spark of a huge rally ?
