I stopped looking at anything out of china over two months ago.

The system is clogged with shorts, still.

The bears must have legitimate reasons to short the market.  I see one of them is the high valuations........................

Where is this big dip the bears keep promising? I am keeping some cash on sidelines but it is burning a hole in my pocket.

All the funnymentals which created the greatest economy mankind has ever seen, are all still in place.

(low taxes, low inflation, LOW REGULATIONS, pro-business administration, anti-war administration, foreign trade NEW deals).

As soon as covid-19 is subdued (all pandemics come to an end, even the 1918 Spanish flu which killed 1000 times more than covid-19)

this economy is ready to explode again.

Don't forget the Non-Commercial speculators.  They were net short 265,000 ES mini contracts on the close April 28th.  I think some of the charts posted showed that the biggest net contracts over the last 20 years was in the 300-425K range.  Compare that to the Commercials being net LONG 55,000 big SPX contracts or the same $ size as 275,000 ES mini's.  May 5th data out near the close tomorrow.
