SUMMARY OF IMPRESSIONS FROM "LOOKING BACK" (above)
==================================================
02/22 Our Optimism Index fell quite sharply. The
dollar index tanked and XGLD soared. XOI was
steady.
02/18 Our (lack of) Optimism Index went negative.
Even Ol' McClellan is rolling over to the downside.
The dollar index was unchanged, so was XGLD, but
XOI continued its rampage. It's up $100 since
January 24th. That's a heady run.
02/17 Our Optimism Index gave up its gains of the
past 3 days. The dollar index was down a little,
XGLD was up and XOI gave back a little.
02/16 The bond index seems to be slipping off its
run-up. McClellan has been relentlessly bullish
since the last day of January. The bad data for
the US dollar index was corrected today. The dollar
index was up a trace today, as was XGLD. XOI is on
a rampage.
02/15 Our Optimism Index is still creeping up. The
dollar index was down a little, XGLD was up a
little and XOI was up, closing above $800.
02/14 Our Optimism Index stopped it's fall in positive
territory. The dollar index is down a little from
Thursday (we had bad data on Friday and it hasn't
been corrected, yet). XGLD was rambunctious and
XOI advanced a little.
