Wow. I'm not sure how to take that. Someone has to want to sell in order to take a market down... Mark

don't the bulls just seem very weak on a day like today

previously bulls have been able to shift sentiment faster, but with yields ultimately going higher, there seems to be a roof over indexes

seems to be just a matter of time before yields hit 5.25 again and markets crash
also bank of japan raising rates, also a matter of time, will mess the markets up


Wow.

Blackstone IPO is over-subscribed.


I heard that it was about 7 times over-subscribed, a lot of dumb liquidity out there...

Further, Blackstone has said compensation costs and other fees tied to the IPO will prevent it from turning a profit for several years.

Absolutely everyone wants to get in on the hot trend in LBO's , just as it may be coming to an end with the interest rates climbing. How's that for the sentiment.

Investor appetite to take risk is still constructive and positive it seems. They didnt pull it, they didnt drop the price did they. I would be worried had they done so.
