Over the years the incumbent folks at the "chosen 'banks'" will linger as their institutions suck the economy dry. I mean, what are we doing that the Japanese did not do? Faster and More? Japan and China get it. How would one expect a result much different from the Japan”s?

If this is a real recovery why are people buying 2-yr Treasuries? The Leftback economic indicators are stalled out. The Baltic Dry looks like a dead cat bounce. Lots of stuff churning under overhead resistance here: SPX, XLB, XLF, C, GE, JPM, GOOG and JNK. That’s bearish, folks… there may be one more push to SPX 875 but the DOWN elevator is beckoning.

"If theres a bustle in your hedgerow Don't be alarmed now, Its just a spring clean for the may queen." Don't forget what happens to the may queen... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_Queen "According to popular British folklore, the tradition once had a sinister twist, in that the May Queen was put to death once the festivities were over." I do like that song though.... This rally looks like a stairway to heaven.
