MIKE PAULENOFF'S ETF TRADING DIARY
The moment of truth for the bond market and the TLTs: Was the action since Tuesday's 8-month recovery high at 90.39 and the weakness into yesterday's low at 89.28 the start of a decline in the aftermath of the completion of the entire upleg from the May low (82.56) -- as is hinted by the island downside reversal on Tuesday? Or is today's rally, which is approaching the gap area (90.05-90.19) an indication that the "housing bears," the "general economic bears" and the "inflation bears" remain in control of market direction -- rather than the stock market bulls, who presumable have been, and still are, discounting a potent economic rebound, a relatively strong market, and ample liquidity?
Naturally, today's sharp rebound in the TLTs is disconcerting to someone like me, who firmly believe that there is so much liquidity sloshing around that at some point (sooner rather than later) it will have to be mopped-up in a big way to avert a serious bout of inflation.
