Marc Faber: Market Will End Badly This Year
http://video.cnbc.com/gallery/?video=3000152814
the only thing I like about equity markets at this level is I'm graduating this spring, and getting a job will be a lot easier when the markets are doing well lol...
yeah I guess, but you can't really trust the gov't numbers anymore with Janet Yellen sitting as Vice Chair of the Fed
http://www.bloomberg.com/video/financial-stocks-rise-on-yellen-s-comments-about-qe-3qF7HXaTRcebqXEfWrIjWQ.html
but the bulls seem to be in control of the market...
haha, yeah that's backwards thinking actually...when I interviewed for that wealth management job last fall, the owner who interviewed me said he had a client that is European, or had just come back from Europe and wanted to go all in cash or fixed income...
and the owner told how he was trying to get his client to get in AAPL, back when it was around $700, and he client said no and no about getting into the market in general, and the owner asked his client what if the market goes 10% higher and his client said if the market went significantly higher, then he would think about getting back in lol...backwards
that's why I want to ask my friend how many fund managers will go with the flow and listen to their clients because if many do...sure the market can go higher, but if most the fund managers that go with the flow already made that rotation, then there's not much upside...I'm sure my friend isn't the only one who realizes the market is standing on straws
what's up with Icahn continuing to pick on the little "Jewish boy" (Ackman) lol

1544 on the S&P 500 doesn't look like a bad place to get short the market/SPY
I never said people just calling in but not actually putting money in drives the market higher, I said for the market to go higher, it will have to be those people/retail investors that call their fund managers to chase the rally for the market to go higher and top out...if most of the money managers are declining, then we can't go much higher, ie this will be the top
haha, not really...that's what causes a top is people calling their fund manager wanting to get back in to chase the rally, I forgot to ask my friend how many fund managers go with the flow in order to rack up more fees...my friend understands that the fundamentals are still weak/bad and that a lot of this is fluff
cool, my HD puts expire in August, I've learned to give myself plenty of time for my trades to play out lol...my HD strikes are $70 puts
haha, oh yeah I've lost money shorting LNKD and CRM, but I've been on the sidelines for about a month, and last week started a short position in HD between $68-$69, so we will see...I mean yeah the market can go higher, but I don't think HD has too much upside...I heard Congress passed a bill to prevent a Gov't shut down that would have occurred later this month, so that kinda sucks because that's one less catalyst to tank the market...
The link I sent you is more of a longer-term issue though in regards to U.S. Debt...Europe will unravel or experience a major crisis (bank run) before the U.S. has problems with it's debt...
I'm more optimistic about the U.S. fixing it's debt issues though, however the markets and rating agencies will likely have to put pressure on politicians to do what's necessary to get on a more sustainable path...
kinda sucks the Iraq/Afgan war since 9/11 is so expensive...Freedom isn't Free though
oh are those the levels where you will take profits or short the market?

Discussion: Big Rotation coming?
http://video.cnbc.com/gallery/?video=3000151734
watch at 6:05min, bulls say market top wont come till a big rotation happens when funds rotate out of fixed income to equities...my friend is a wealth manager and I called him up yesterday and asked him if his clients were calling him wanting to jump in...he said yes, exact quote from him:
"Yup. Dozens of clients are calling today saying they want to jump in now after being on the sidelines for 3 years...I'm declining their requests..."
I told him, "well the retail investor is known for buying at the top and selling at the bottom..." lol

yeah I bought a few HD AUG $70 puts last week between $68-$69, was hoping it wouldn't go above $70, but I got till August for this trade to play out, at the very least I should be able to break even if I want to get out
here's a good market analysis, back at the market peak in 2007, earnings were 20% higher than where they were now on a valuation basis, so the bulls are saying there's more room to run, bears say that's a bad sign about earnings going forward...

http://www.bloomberg.com/video/dow-reaches-record-high-how-d-we-get-here-QDQf2gW5QZaGJcVuoWA_1w.html
I agree with the bears...sure the market is at/near all time highs, but how are the fundamentals? I know back in 2007 the global economy was a lot stronger, especially in Europe and China, so given that Europe is in a recession and China is slowing because of Europe, I'm not sure how much more upside the market has...
