I'm just not seeing fear, in the media or here...
Anyone disagree?

I see no fear also.....But the tape acted very strange.....Many trades were outside trades.....For example many stocks went from +0.5 to -1.5 with every tick.....with only 100 shares changed hands....I'm just not seeing fear, in the media or here...
Anyone disagree?

fear is not something that comes easily to expression for folks..of the 4 feeling words, it likely is the one least spoken by adults -
mad
sad
glad
scared

My favorite fear indicator is Treasuries. Early this morning, their were reports in various MSM outlets about how bonds were benefitting from a flight to quality. Frankly, I wasn't really impressed: half a point on the 30-yr., BFD. The long bond has already given back this morning's gains and then some. As far as I can see, nobody's really worried.

I want return OF my money more than return ON my money

The FEAR FACTOR won't manifest itself so early! The SPX had advanced from
aprox 760 to 1460 in 4 years. That is a 92% advance!!! So now we have a 4%
correction!!!!
If you don't want to go back 4 years, how about 8 months?
SPX advanced from the 1250 area to 1460. That is a 17% advance in 8 months.
So why should anyone out there be trembling in morbid fear?
But...But...if SPX drops below 1300, that is when fear will rear its head.

I was short NDX with QID and took profit today. Now I'm long NDX with QLD and want to see the gap at $86.00 closed before moving back to QID.

Fear already came and went -- like Monday, when most were hiding under a table and way too scared to buy ********.
Now its Greed's turn.
