The Real Reason for Yesterday’s Stock-Market Sell-Off

On Aug. 11, 2010, the Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged 265 points, or 2.5%.

This Tuesday - almost exactly one year later - the Dow dropped ... 265 points.

Those carbon-copy stock-market sell-offs weren't a coincidence. - as yesterday's (Thursday's) 512-point drop and further weakness will prove.

Week-long Rally Shows Bull Market Still Has Some Kick Left

U.S. stocks ripped higher every day of the past week following positive news on U.S. manufacturing, Greek sovereign debt and an absolutely epic amount of short-covering.

Don’t Fight the ISM?

I just love correlation charts. Unlike the useless, biased spin fed to us from Wall Street’s market strategoists and egonomists, the charts are just the facts, M’am, just the facts, and you can see them for yourselves.

More Little Lies and Big Spin- Gains or Blips?
