Bear Market Rally

Ashraf Laidi points out a 2-month cycle in the equity markets going back to March 2008. On Friday, March 13th he said "the S&P500 has persistently shown rallies and declines lasting 7-8 weeks. The same rule has applied for the FTSE, DAX and the NIKKEI. ".

If it holds true for the latest Bear Market rally, it should take us into May, and then we might just sell and go away.

"To be rich and live in an exotic land".

"To be rich and live in an exotic land" If I would have known those things came true you wrote in your high school yearbook, I would have been a little more "exotic" in my choice of ambition.

So from here on out I am "trading in luxury", "to be rich and live in an exotic land".
