PPI core up 0.3%. With oil on bullish trend one can only expect inflation getting higher and higher.

The PPI, CPI, GDP numbers are totally disconnected from reality. The rigged earnings numbers are even worse :wacko:

LBOs and cheap money has been the main driver for the last year.

It has 1987 written all over it. :bear:

For me 1987 was SOOOOO much fun. Like watch the demo of an old building, only problem was there were lots of people inside the building. I got on the right side of the market on Oct 6. I vividly remember the bottom on Tuesday when trading literally stopped and the futures contract was at a 12 point discount to cash. A LOT of people got hurt but I was lucky.
History always repeats . . . only the details change.
