1. Is the FED doing QE? No - sell Yes - proceed to 2 2. Is unemployment above 6.5%? No - sell stocks Yes - BUY BUY BUY!! There is no way on this planet the FED will step off the gas while unemployment is above 6.5% and data is weak. The bears need a serious reality check.

My thought is this - the market has an emotional character that is the collective emotional state of the participants. But the market on QE is like a person on anti-depressants. Sure they walk around and they look fine most of the time, but so often the collaring of normal human emotions will cause catastrophic effects, like thoughts of suicide, or even homicide. When you mess with natural forces, eventually there will be trouble.
