The Dollar Index staged a nice bounce mid-week, which helped crush gold. Some 'wave' definitely concluded for the yellow metal and it seems destined for several weeks of sideways/down price action. The dollar probably has some more 'hops' left in it but I see resistance in the mid-80's on the DXY.
The S&P500 is becoming extremely vulnerable to one of those "elevator" moves lower. I'm itching to short and will likely do so on a break of 1350.
Addendum:
This is how far the ol' "If you see something, say something" concept has come....
From one of my favorite little blogs:
Detained for Babysitting while White
"Two Fridays ago, Henson and his wife were babysitting their five year-old granddaughter, Ty. After an evening at a neighborhood recreation center, Henson -- who is white -- and his granddaughter -- who is black -- started to walk to his home, which is just a few blocks from the rec center.
Some busybody saw Henson and his granddaughter walking home, called police and alleged that a kidnapping was in progress.
From that point on, all hell broke loose."
There's some police video at the end....gotta love the police state.

"Rothschild" has nothing to do with anything.
It's all a myth. The only way to get ahead in life is to trade paper tickets so as to fatten up your electronic banks accounts.

I've been looking for an elevator drop for a 3-4 weeks now...better to just jump on the elevator after it goes through the first few floors....

Weekly 3LB Update 3/2/12
"~iffin' you're looking for some 'Elevator Drop', isn't it better to be "Short", beforehand?"
well, yeh, maybe, (if someone stops pushing the buttons to higher floors :P)
but I got short twice 1294ish, 1325ish), slapped my face then went long, sold last week... now neutral, but, 1375 is BIG resistance which we saw last year. thinking if for some reason we bust through 1375, next 18's is 1406 price which may be reached real quick then fall from there. I may though, nibble on SDS this week.
Been traveling around 3 states and from what I've seen in most resturants and stores, and traffic, the economy doesn't seem to be slowing down. Also, the condo complex I'm renting in Kona, HI, every unit is booked for the next 3+ months.

This Week:
Warning: A New Who's Who of Awful Times
to Invest
Last week, the estimated return/risk profile of the S&P 500 fell to the worst 2.5% of all observations in history on our measures. This is not a runaway bull market. Rather, it is a market that again stands near the highs of an extended but volatile trading range. Importantly, the market is again characterized by an extreme set of conditions that we've previously associated with a Who's Who of Awful Times to Invest.
..Hussy....
Last week there was some discussion about turning cheap vodka into decent vodka by running it through a Brita filter.
So this weekend I got a bottle of the cheapest vodka I could find Monarch and filtered half of it and kept half unfiltered.
Now I am no vodka snob, but after pouring a glass of the filtered and comparing it to a glass of unfiltered, there was a distinc color difference the unfiltered had a yellowish hue to it and an undeniable taste differece, so the unfiltered half got filtered then if got drunk.
Next week I will get a bottle of top shelf stuff and compare it to the filtered Monarch.

Now that's my kind of taste test!
Will they please stop with the "stocks are cheaper now than any point in history" headlines. Anything is used to try and convince people that all is well and good with the market.
thanks for the update AT
if one uses the RSI strategy I outlined last week they'd note that gold could not hold the lower bull market support zone on RSI last week
GLD is holding the 200 ema thus far however
AmanRa - You don't want people to get priced out of this market do you?
Heck now is even the perfect time to buy a house, before the prices go back to the moon.
And while they are at it a new car couldn't hurt - Make it a Hummer, got to pay high gas prices to stimulate the economy you know.
I will tell you one thing from my little vodka experiment, I can see why Ben or anyone else would be a vodka snob, I even had my wife try it and she does not drink, she took a sip of the filtered stuff first and gave the old, too stong face, then after a few seconds I had her try the unfiltered stuff and she said it wasn't just to strong but tasted nasty - And it did.

@Mutt.
That's pretty interesting on the Vodka. That never occurred to me even try that...
I sampled a large amount of vodka saturday night, couldn't tell you what kind it was, but it wasn't Bankers Club, I know that much.

With the Brita filter, you may lose some product to the sponge effect of the filter. Forget the filter and just get you some tomato juice and fresh ground pepper. You'll never notice any "inferiority".

"With the Brita filter, you may lose some product to the sponge effect of the filter."
Well then buy more than one since it's cheap vodka ;-)
sponge effect?
is that something they can use at Georgetown?
I suppose another thing that would be fun is to fill the brita with vodka
and then wait for the next person to come around and drink it, thinking its water
(not suggested for houses with kids under 8)

I'm imagining the look on their face after they take a large sip. LMAO.
...does that filter idea work with Everclear?
Ra,
I'd offer to try it on my wife but I've tied a rubber-band around the sink hose so many times waiting for her to turn the water on
if I do this she'll probably serve me with papers
bwahahahah
anybody here use stockcharts?
Ra,
the vodka in the brita would probably work best as a prank in the summer.....somebones out mowing the lawn on a real hot day, looking for a tall glass of water
and then........
