Shrinking Bulls?

Tyler Durden's picture




 

As the following chart shows, investors can worry no more of over-exuberance, uber-complacency, and super-confidence as the AAII bull-bear survey saw bulls drop to a mere 60.6% this week... panic over...

 

 

Not!

Only to lay the groundwork for the next phase of the short squeeze, multiple-expansion, liquidity-drven rally.

Makes sense since this market is obviously going substantially higher from here and the risk to the downside is only a couple points while the risk to the upside is double or triple digit percents in most stocks.

this is a top shelf comment...and as a bull (in Bonds...with equity an equity position still...though not for much longer) I would say this: "when QE wasn't just for real bu was forward guidance as well" I could "understand" (as a puny human myself) the "market." sure the whole thing was "truthiness" but I'm the type of person who goes there too. Not only do we have Taper...which I don't understand...but we also have "forward guidance taper"...which I DEFINITELY don't "get" (and think basically it is impossible to understand actually. "peak knowability" as it were)...so "where do I run to to make sure there is return OF capital?" Well, they're still striking gold and silver and selling it so treasuries...while maybe a "loser" going on almost a year now...still represents a safety play should we get a "bull market correction." Bull market corrections are VERY robust because there is so much leverage on the table and "no one can afford the market to fall even one percent." using the "chess method" (never think more than two moves ahead) says to me "preserve your capital" and if you still have a job or an income once Wall Street nukes itself again "do what you can to buy into the fear." in effect "you own the bank" instead of the other way around. in other words...sure...I lose two percent...but if the equity space drops twenty or more "not my problem" as I remain unlevered. For the record I have been...not totally Wong (that would gold, silver and basis traders) but "Wong neutral."

Shrinkage is due to cold weather. No apologize is to be necessity.

I don't think there are bulls OR bears anymore. Just people who are in on the fraud (or believe so), and those that desperately wish they were.

Bulls and Bears are market metrics, and as such, have no place in a rigged casino.

Every bank and fund is standing around looking through binoculars for signs of the retail herd. Probably going to need quite a few  more eTrade commercials.
