That chart has the look of an evening star forming. But it did make a new high so it might not be ready to reverse just yet.

typical for the rag that it's become, this post:

http://www.ritholtz.com/blog/2011/09/att-americans-you-wont-all-be-rich-tomorrow/

gets the tags: Current Affairs, Data Analysis, Economy

Seems more like the "why the Tea Party is full of fucking idiots" article I read by Matt Tiabbi in rolling stone about 45 times since the Vampire Squid became common knowledge.

I also enjoy the claim by a guy that admitted to voting for Obama about he was watching for the applause points during the GOP debate

gee, smarty, if only you had paid enough attention to the bullshit being spewed by the person you actually voted for rather than people you most certainly would never even consider for the position

lol......

The next 18 months in the United States.......I'm not sure "interesting times" really will do it justice....

The Street was able to dump a lot of paper in the primary market today. There were some big deals today that wouldn't have been done at all if the risk appetite resembled Monday.
