Interest rate reality check
There is a lot of talk about when “the Fed” is going to “raise rates.” Rates are actually determined mostly by supply and demand in the money market.

Submitted by inthemoneystocks on 04/15/2014 12:18 -0500The deep freeze has taken over small cap land. It has been a long time since small caps were out of vogue but the time has come. As the great rotation of capital shifts from high risk stocks to low risk, high dividend payers, many think the end has come for any investments in small caps. I am here to say that is not true. Over the past year, you could have closed your eyes and thrown a dart at a small cap and made a lot of money. Those times have changed, however there is still money to be made. ...Continue reading here: http://bit.ly/1qEEn4J

Record high margin debt and short selling
Submitted by ret999 on 02/04/2014 14:14 -0500Newspapers and yahoos point to the record high margin debt as showing the speculation in the markets.

Or is this a short squeeze on all the "smart money" being short stocks?
And that showing up as the high borrowing on margin?
