Interesting. I thought Trader Fred was the only one who made charts like that.
What program would one use to create it?

This is simple chart plotting....Okay, Frixxxx...what's the answer?
They are used alot in Math/Engineering/Economics/Science
I can do this in MathLab. I can also program a simple Java tool to support chart plotting. Quadrant plotting is even available on TI-Nspire, like this.
I usually see these charts used when representing group dynamics by personality traits.
CAD, Origin8, and a slew of other home grown software.

Cool. This is really a great way to present economic changes over time. It really brings it to life. I wonder why we don't see this data presented this way more often. I think it helps drive home the point of whatever is being represented.

The more bouyant the market is this week, the less likely a meltdown becomes. So far, so good. I would have been more concerned if we continued to drift or drop lower going into mid-week. But it's early yet. It'll be a fun week to watch. At least from the sidelines.

The moosecall was entertaining this week. They are also on the sidelines.

I do not understand this bouyancy in the market. Fear and hope?....

Look at it this way, sentiment is used as a tool to push the market one way or another irrespective of the underlying fundamentals. The idea is to bag those traders leaning too hard (bullish or bearish) at any given time. That's why Tom talks about sentiment so much and why the market can act seemingly irrational at times; sometimes for extended periods.
This does not include intervention by the Fed or Treasury (overt or covert), which can also have an impact.

Because the market is a discounting mechanism for the future and is omnipotent it will move when there is no obvious reason to the mortal. Tentative signs of life in global trade are emerging, buoying growth forecasts in the U.S. and China, two of the world's most important economies. Exports rose 1.6% in May to $123.3 billion. It's a very good sign for GDP. Think longer term. Exports are currently blazing the trail until jobs improve.

That's definitely "long term". I think your comment "exports are currently blazing a trail" is using a whole lot of literary embellishment.
Exports may have risen 1.6%, but after what kind of drop? Keep things in their proper perspective. I think the global economy has a lot further to go before we see significant growth. But then, as you said, that's long term.
