Cash on the sidelines

Nervous investors have socked $3.4 trillion away in cash. But stocks are rising and their nerves are calming, leading bulls to view the huge cash pile as a sign that markets have room to go higher.

Assets in money-market funds have grown by $1 trillion over the last three years to their highest level in around a decade, according to Lipper data. A variety of factors are fueling the flows, from higher money-market rates to concerns over the health of the 10-year economic expansion and an aging bull market.

QQQ - the trend is your friend, until the end - trend hit trend line - generally you short or sell at this point.

Breadth Momentum Oscillator - RSI at 666.7 :) Breadth is showing some divergences with the S&P 500 being at all time highs. Bears are afraid of the "China Deal" words.

My analysis of yesterday's options activity on $SPX suggests financial institutions are predominantly writing OTM calls. This puts more long gamma on the books of buyers (market makers) and implies an anticipation of a short-term pullback. Take, e.g., the Dec 3100 calls data.

      I synthesize data from multiple sources ...asymmetric options activity, volatility forecasts, volatility-scaled time-series momentum, etc. Then I chart it against the auction. Right now ...that data looks like short-term correction. It's neither contrarian nor I my opinion.

Yay the chief was mentioned on David Larews twitter blog!!  From my analysis for next weeks expiration I've got it finishing at the most 3090, 3100 a stretch and 2935 on the downside but I think thats a little to far away now.  But who knows with expirations now happening almost every day I think its getting harder to judge lol!!

"Weird Wollie Wednesday", created by Don Wolanchuk, references the Wednesday prior to options expiration. This day is made up of manipulated price action which is primarily related to the faster deterioration of options premiums during the week prior to options expiration,

Nervous investors have socked $3.4 trillion away in cash. But stocks are rising and their nerves are calming, leading bulls to view the huge cash pile as a sign that markets have room to go higher.

Here we go again. The ridiculous "cash on the sidelines" myth rears its ugly head once again. Money is in one account or another. It moves from the buyer's account to the seller's. The stock changes ownership from the seller to the buyer. Is the money on the sidelines before or after the transaction when I buy a stock from another person with my cash?
