Kicking Cans

There will be no fiscal discipline or monetary discipline in the US until the market demands it.  That is not going to happen under the US dollar being a reserve currency.  Only when the dollar loses that reserve status and you have a currency crisis will you start getting religion on balancing budgets and monetary restraint.  This is all a show.  S&P is a bunch of clowns.  Anybody expecting austerity or rate hikes any time this year are dreaming.  Dreaming.  The US will test the market's limits until there is a crisis.


Expecting midday weakness today, we may test the low 1290s once today but it should hold.

GOOG looks like a good long term value, I am a believer in their enterprise, but short term trading has little do with underlying fundamentals. I don't have the patience to go long stocks like GOOG and wait for institutions to reembrace it.
