Look at last years chart  13 May - 30 May

I remember it well; made my 1st real big loss, because then I hadn't learned the emotional part of trading yet!

:D 

Thing is, they don't, but neither are they bearish.

 

Wild prediction: The ALSI will correct on 9 June, when CML goes ex-div! (Look at last year)

 

CML is not even part of the TOP 40 :D   :D  :D

When the newspapers and headlines start to shout out how awesome the bull run is and how stocks will continue to go up and skies are blue... THEN you need to start worrying.

Thing is, they don't, but neither are they bearish.

Yes, even though I'm VERY short this market, I don't know why all this bearish talk on this forum and why guys persist in this. Who are you working for? The fund managers, to sucker us rookies, in order to have sellers?? Nowhere on all the media - tv, newspapers, radio - are people as negative as the guys on this forum! All do agree the markets are very high and don't present much value, but bearish...NO! :o

For what it's worth...Local fund managers are also very frustrated...they are massively overweight cash (>13%) and the put/call ratio is also very high...large LO's keep on adding puts as the market moves higher and higher...and I am not trying to mislead anyone...just stating the facts.

Guys, I have realised yesterday...for as long as global interest rates and bond volatility stay low global markets are likely to grind higher...this is why the current bull market is the most unloved bull market ever. Highly FRUSTRATING!

Yip looks like another green day for the most resilient and best diversified market in the world! Everyday it is something else that takes this market higher. Truly amazing...not sure what it will take to crack this market!

I think it is all about ppl saying what they WANT the market to do as opposed to what they THINK it will do!
