first, you run all the shorts out of the market by edict. next, you run prices straight up so that everyone gets on the long side of the market. and what kind of buying power does that leave you with? very darn little. oh, and your proposed solution to the credit crisis sends bonds down 4 points. all we need now is for the chinese/japanese to come out over the weekend and indicate that they will be buying less treasury debt in the future. isn't this country great? the bulls best hope is that the fed is embarking on a course of hyperinflation which cannot be discounted. either way, it is likely that volatility will increase and the next move, whether it's up or down, will be a doozy. the market will have to rally back to 1313 to change my p&f projections.

They will do everything possible under the sun to levitate the market through November 4th using your money. Y'all know Nov 4th is election day, so hide your wallets at least until then.

I don't think it lasts til then. If shorts are forced out completely, it's pretty much wiley coyote time.
