MH, poll...

Your poll question did not specify a time period. Three years or six months make a large differnce in my voting number. My vote for a three year period is 3. Vote for the last six months is 5.

VOTE: 5

caveat. with respect to the actual ppt, i'd think 3 is more likely - at least for this past year. but i think that the belief that the fed, or - at this point, someone - would intervene has removed risk from the betting folks are doing. anyway, at this point, its hard to ascribe the actions to anyone specific. might as well be the fed, but could be anyone, or just the herd.

i mean: folks rush in to buy nvls after it sells off after spitting up a hairball. how many times does that have to happen (and its been often since october) until the herd has learned that that behavior is profitable? the rules have been changed, and i think the fed is responsible for that. but lately, direct intervention probably is the less likely explanation; but still, just looking at what's happening in the market, its still a consistent interpretation of it. to me, anyway.

my vote, over a year ago: #msg-466793

more: #msg-998444

something else I meant to post at the time but never did... a few months ago I was having a dinner conversation with a guy I just met. He asked what I did for living and he was very interested in my opinions because he had just started to consider trying to play the market. What really struck me was this guy was VERY fresh into the stock market game, but somewhere he had read about the PPT, and he had already formed an opinion that the PPT was the only thing driving the rally... Amazing, this PPT conspiracy theory has filtered down to the rank amateurs

Vote 6.

The FED/NYC banks run the stock market.

No question about it.

Intervention happens every single day.
