"I ♥ risk". That seems to be the message that Dr. Market is conveying thus far in 2009. The S&P 500 has already exceeded its maximum gain of 2008, when it briefly traded up 0.23% on the year on the first day of trading before closing down 1.4% on the day. Volumes remain modest thus far ...

Diamond clues to beasts' demise BBC Old Gastrointestinal Drug Slows Aging PhysOrg Judge doesn't buy state secrets privilege, OKs wiretap suit Ars Technica State's jobless claims systems overwhelmed WTVN (hat tip reader Jim) Merrill’s financial advisers’ loyalty questioned Financial Times. The headline is a bit weird. Retail brokers are loyal to their book, which they can take with them; where they put up their shingle is incidental. Orgainzations that forget that do so at considerable cost to their bottom line. Which is precisely why BofA will botch this. They ...
Is the Rally Off the Citi Bottom for Real?
College Analysts —
... The persistence with which the market has pushed higher the last few weeks has caught plenty of people by surprise. Macro Man pieces together data from several markets, offering a good perspective on the kind of rally that’s being seen. It’s significant in the equity markets, which are up 20% off the November lows, and many sectors that have been taken out to the woodshed previously are up even more. ...
Perched On A Precipice
Daily Markets —
... Whoops! Was it really less than a week ago that the market and Macro Man were saying “I ♥ risk” ? Suffice to say that the enthusiasm has petered out pretty darned quickly, and everything now looks quite ugly. Friday’s payroll number was execrable, though perhaps not as execrable as it might have been. Karma dictated that having moaned about never winning a sweep, Macro Man triumphed last week with a cheeky -575 guess. The worse-than-expected unemployment was not particularly surprising, given that it looks likely to eventually exceed 9%. ...

Happy Days For The Green Shoots Crowd As S&P 500 Closes Higher For The Year
Daily Markets —
... It’s happy days again for the green shoots crowd, as the SPX finally completed its gut-wrenching round-trip to close up on the year yesterday. Man, those early January days of Macro Man loving risk seem like a long, long time ago. In any case, yesterday’s Fed Senior Loan Officer survey provided another arrow in the quiver of the recovery crew, suggesting that the worst of the credit tightening is behind us. ...
