  1. Consumer confidence (waaaay....) lagging stocks following 2000 peak: http://twitpic.com/pctcr
  2. RT @TheKirkReport: It's Veteran's Day and time to say thank you to all of the men and women who have served. http://bit.ly/3jzFhM $$
  3. When $SPY opens <-0.5% on payroll day, close > open 47% of the time...reversals are more consistent on more extreme reactions.
  4. For reference on $UUP, here is $UNG premium/discount after it halted shares on July 7th: http://twitpic.com/odq9o
  5. $UUP discount/premium (per halted shares pending new issuance): http://twitpic.com/odq1s
  6. HUGE shift in individual investor sentiment to one of the lowest readings of the bear market http://twitpic.com/oc4q1
  7. Usual "Fed Reversal" pattern...when futures gap up 0.5% and close up 1% on FOMC day, 2 days later positive 1 out of 9, -1.9% avg.
  8. Unleaded gas showing near-record specs net long too.
  9. Heating Oil shows most bullish specs (large and small) in history.
  10. In crude oil contract, that is
  11. Large speculators just moved to 3rd largest net long position in history. Other higher readings led to short-term (couple of week) dips.
  12. Past "biggest 1-day change in a year" for VIX have led to mediocre returns. 3 days later S&P was actually negative 14 / 24 times.
  13. Only 4 times has NYSE Up Issues gone from <20% to >80% to <20% in 3 days. 2 major lows, 2...uh, not. 2/25/46, 11/5/48, 6/29/50 & 3/11/55.
  14. If we close < Monday's open, watch for bears hailing a "Tweezer Top". Caveat venditor...it's an inconsistent predictor of future weakness.
  15. FWIW (not much lately), SPY is 0 for 7 four days out when forms NR7 day at 1-yr high with negative breadth, assuming it holds into close.
  16. When $SPY gapped down >0.5% and didn't close gap w/in first hour, it closed in positive territory only 16% of the time (53/331 occurrences).
  17. FWIW (not much), 16 of the last 20 times SPY closed at a 6-month high with volume >40% below 6-month avg, it traded lower over next 3 days.
  18. @agwarner KIE and IAK that I know of
  19. RT @TradingTheOdds: $ES_F up;+0.75% , $BKX & $SOX underperform...this is consistently negative for SPX from several different aspects.
  20. It's been tough for gold-relateds to hold up in the short-term when Rydex traders have been so enthusiastic http://twitpic.com/km7ft
