Semi, before everything gets out of control, you need a decent amount of volatility. There is not enough volatility so far, so I would expect any initial volatility to be still bought back up until the quarter end. We may see the downside accelerate only after August...

Volatility is just an intraday game they play at these levels...

 

Poke here, and a poke there, mostly jerking around the 2X and 3X VIX ETFs to create impressions.

 

I pay no attention to it, until it gets over 20, then it gets interesting.

RUT not doing to badly either in terms of leadership and has a measured move from the rectangle formed from the  lows targeting 1440-1450-1460. 

 

Getting there awfully fast.

my call is that this market is going to keep going up

 

the situation is Korea is a stalemate  - market was pricing in attack

 

France stays in EU - market was pricing in a breakup

 

China does not have a crash landing - market was pricing that in

 

Nobody cares about Greece anymore

 

Employment levels are high - people are spending

 

Obamacare put on hold 

 

strong demands for new homes 

 

home values up 

 

tax break coming

 

fear / greed charts super negative 

 

what does that all add up to  ?

Yes, but RUT is already at all time highs...

 

Nothing special about that right now, so is the Nasdaq and SPX, just about...

 

SOX on the other hand gives the boyz something to do...

 

Along with the banks.

 

At a certain point, that I just defined at 1050, it's time to get out of the way and let em have their new highs...

 

I mean really, isn't this a grade school exercise, at the end, everybody gets an A + and a participation trophy...
