On May 8th S&P up 2% and Nas down 1/2%
and May 11 S&P down 2% and Nas up 1/2%
Many interesting queries related to this including generalizations and homeostases and consiliences that one leaves as exercises to scholars.
Also, a once in a million shot. A down 2% day on May 14th with an up very nice afternoon.
Also, the flirtations with the 900 level being bailed out by a "doctor".
Also, the bond vigilantes being in control with bonds and bunds at 2 month low on 5/08 only to be ridden out of town on a rail.
One may posit that there are many land sales going on in conjunction with offers that can't be refused.
