- It looks to me as if there is a strong possibility in this rally continuing....however, don't be suprised if it falls off a cliff.
- Everyone is watching the SPX 1040 level for a breakdown. If it breaks watch for some fireworks.
- Nevertheless, it looks like Ben could keep the music going a little longer. There is some heavy buying going on, some not seen since the March 2009 lows. Dollar bulls are at record highs (bad for market) and market participants are just as pessimistic now as they were near the March 09' lows.
- What the verdict? .......it smells like a rally a coming
S&P 500 Index - 60 minute chart
Could we possibly be ready to rally....??
- Ben just might have done it.....the music might still be playing

Time to go shopping in Greece?
- I'm not real sure, but I believe it could be time to go shopping for some value in Greece.
- The world is scared to death of Greece and like Buffet says, "be fearful when others are greedy and greedy when others our fearful."
- I'm buying some National Bank of Greece (NBG) right here.
National Bank of Greece (NBG)
What am I reading today?

The Ultimate Hedge in Economic Crisis - Consider health care the ultimate hedge in times of economic crisis. Not only is it the last area that people cut back, it doesn't lose value in good times, as gold does. As a percentage of our economy, health care overshadows sectors that are far more subject to economic fluctuations, such as energy.

Will history continue rhyming?
- Sometimes history seems to repeat itself.
- 2007 saw the collapse of the largest housing bubble in U.S. history, the lead up to this collapse is shown in chart #1.
- The U.S. reflation trade of 2009 and early 2010 also was fueled by a massive amount of liquidity, creating another bubble in the U.S. equity markets. This can be seen in chart #2. Notice the similarities in the rise of 2006/2007 to 2009/2010.
- What if the collapse of this bubble mirrors the collapse of 2007/2008? Check out chart #3, we could be in for another bumpy couple of years.
2006/2007 Market Rally
2009/2010 Market Rally
What could happen from here
Timings not right for gold
- If you're looking for an investment in the gold market the timing probably isn't the greatest at the moment.
- I can see gold pulling back to $900 in the intermediate term, that's when I'll become a buyer.
