Take a look at yesterday's Dow chart and today's. They are exactly the same. Pretty crazy huh?

Guess the Treasury is <b>NEVER</b> out of money. And they would rather have it go worthless than let this deflation continue.

Can they stop this deflation? Not a chance. They will destroy the USD before relinquishing power.

Print and pump is basically their only choice at this point.

Well...once again the futures traders are predicting about a 100 point drop. IMHO, the other issue is that we're at the top border of this trading band that we've been in really since July. It bounced off it pretty hard on Monday. We're not quite up to the band line yet, but it may influence things today.

Dow down -90pts at the open, but if the last few days are an indicator we may see another day in the green. I just can't believe that we are still over the 8000 mark. Oh well maybe the big 'ol bear will come out of hibernation after the new year.

Like I said this morning, we've been in a channel since July. We tried to break out Friday, and fell back down Monday. We tried several times today and didn't make it. It seems to me that the bulls have given up and gone home.

We're pausing for a bit right now because we ran WAY outside the bottom of the 5 and 10 minute bands.
