Gene Inger in the New Market Analysis Area refers to Hail Mary attempts to rebound:
Whether folks figuring out preceding run-up's were less just buying, and more short-covering, we will anticipate an exhaustion of reflex rebounds. But for now 'the boys' are regaining control; but it's borderline.
Speculative bubbles . . . notwithstanding scrutiny; Hindenburg omens typically and historically signaling more rallies than declines (sort of like the market that discounted all 9 of the last 3 recessions); or overwrought nervousness over a bond maven's call for the 'era of cheap money' to be over. .there are more basic factors front-and-center confronting the markets, irrespective of whether another 'hail Mary' rebound occurs.
