This almost looks like a post that could be moved over to the Beltway. Interesting to show what a terrible President can do to a bad economy in six months, huh. <grin>

CNBC's fast money actually spent some time talking about sentiment last night. Not much was said that you don't already know about, just thought it was intersting it made it to TV.
 
I'll bet they were "warning" everyone how bullish things are and how bad things happen when we get too bullish. Am I right? :nuts:

Coincidence?

Remember that mysterious plume off the coast of Los Angeles last month? It happened on 9Nov. It was thought to be a missile launch by those of us who have a clue, but denied by higher authority. Here's a quick news item to refresh your memory.

Now take a look at this chart of CAF.

Peaked the day of the launch.

Just though I'd share this interesting (possible) correlation.

I noticed that there were zero (0) fully short or patially short traders in this mornings Trader's Talk poll. That's pretty rare and usually indicative of an impending decline. Having said that it doesn't mean the decline need be long or steep, only that these kind of numbers typically bring weakness very soon.

Despite disappointing jobs numbers 103,000 (consensus expected 150,00), there is a silver lining. If you look at the prior nonfarm payrolls, and the private nonfarm payrolls, these were both revised upward today around +30,000 from the previous report (Briefing.com). I surmise that todays numbers will also be revised upward the next time. CNBC is now starting to report some positive numbers in the Cash Futures.
 
Just had to drop you line buddy, We're neighbors on the Tracker!! Hee Hee! :nuts:

Good Luck my friend.
