Why Volume Matters
As FBN Securities' Jeremy Klein notes, daily S&P 500 E-Mini volumes have climbed to an average of roughly 2.1MM contracts over the past week. This could be a problem...
Rising volumes are often associated with market pullbacks
When this metric < 2MM, S&P futures have climbed 496 points; when > 2MM, the E-Minis have dropped 355 points in 2014
Above this benchmark, the blue chip index has generated negative daily returns 77.8% of the time year-to-date
And to add some spice to that rising volume concern, small capitalization shares have not underperformed by such a wide margin since 2007
* * *
Klein concludes:
- I switched to a bearish outlook from September 10 with an expectation that small capitalization shares will underperform
- A neutral fundamental environment belies the optimism exhibited by the bulls especially with more restrictive monetary policy on the horizon
- Earnings expectations are far too effusive given the pace of the recovery
- Weakness overseas and a rising dollar limits growth for large multinational corporations

...an expectation that small capitalization shares will underperform
thanks for the news bulletin /s
The stock markt...where fucking people over is a good thing.
Kolomoyskyi was born in a Jewish family.
Kolomoysky has a triple Ukrainian-Israeli-Cyprus citizenship because dual citizenship is not recognized by Ukraine[15][16] Kolomoyskyi explained that: "The constitution prohibits double citizenship but triple citizenship is not forbidden.”[
On 2 March 2014, amidst the 2014 pro-Russian conflict in Ukraine, acting President Oleksandr Turchynov appointed Kolomoyskyi governor of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.,[29] as well as appointing fellow oligarch Serhiy Taruta governor of Donetsk Oblast.
Kolomyski has used Privat's "quasi-military forces" to enforce hostile takeovers of companies, sending a team of "hired rowdies armed with baseball bats, iron bars, gas and rubber bullet pistols and chainsaws" to forcibly take over a Kremenchuk steel plant in 2006,[23] and has used "a mix of phony court orders (often involving corrupt judges and/or registrars) and strong-arm tactics" to replace directors on the boards of companies he purchases stakes in.[
Sounds like business as usual throughout ALL the domains of the former USSR, so what's your beef with the guy? That he's not Bad Vlad's minion but swears fealty to someone else? Or that he is Bad Vlad's bootlicker and is not on the payroll of somebody else? That the heartland of America is arming itself against the growth of this methodology in the United States?
I mean, what's your point-- apart from the fact that you don't like Jews? Or is it Cypriots that get you foaming at the mouth? And what does any of this have to do with volume levels on the stock market? Is he going to change sides if the daily numbers fall below quantity X?
Because she likes it?
Very easy to phony up markets when no one is around.
"limits growth"
try negative growth
Small caps are a textbook inflation hedge. "Textbook haunt of the dumb money" as well (where liquidity is an utter illusion...as the world just found out with GTAT yesterday.)
Lotta big whales swimming in this Ocean (Broken Hill Properties comes to mind)...and yeah, there's always someone who can claim they can undercut you on price (cough, cough...cough, cough.)
There was only one John D Rockefeller however. "He'd just whip out the balance sheet" and it was Oyster Time.
Nice, ebola outbreak unavoidable in Europe:
Ebola outbreak: Spread of deadly disease across Europe is 'unavoidable', warns WHO chiefhttp://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/ebola-outbreak-husband-of...
Blood born pathogen. Surprisingly short incubation period. Obvious when once it goes viral/no hiding the fact.
The numbers are small but this is the most lethal disease known.
No quarantine says to me "this is an attack." The President if not "removed" from office has been studiously avoided of late.
The Army needs to treat its "volunteers" who have sent to West Africa with great care. They might need to stay there permanently actually.
the Med is an easy crossing and with the EU immigration policies the rotary air impeller is about to go into fecal overload. Of course we have the Sith Lord Obama to make sure the US is fucked too. Thank god I live in the middle of nowhere.
Why VOLUME matters. Damn, I thought the headline said SIZE.
