Two - I think you have it about right. Just enough movement back and forth to maintain the illusion of a fair market, and to give those with the master playbook the opportunity to make their daily quotas, but with an underlying relentless push to the upside. Seems to be working quite nicely for them so far, and with all the spinmeisters trying to convince Joe Sixpack that every bit of less bad news is actually wonderful news, Joe seems to be buying it. There was yet another report today declaring that the recession is officially over. Wonder how they know that in advance of the GDP numbers, or are they just assuming that the GDP numbers are a "fait accompli", i.e. cooked nine ways from Sunday by the Obama lackeys? Must be all that stimulus money, only 20% of which has been spent. Think we might be able to rescind the other 80% or perhaps apply it to the massive debt or the healthcare bill??? I would not count on it. It is my considered opinion that they are out to bankrupt the country as the means to bring about the "redistributive change" with which BHO is so enamoured.
