The charts all look the same except the dollar which is the inverse of all of them. The quarter ended with assets as kings and the dollar being tossed by the wayside. The industry group charts all look the same, the currencies all look the same, the commodities all look the same, the country charts all look the same. the funny thing is that fundamentally they are all disasters. Europe, a debt disaster has the following charts.

| Dollar |
It is clear that the dollar is being used to pump up asset values. This is a trade that has been working for some time now and the trades at this point are just literally printing money with it. There is no one on the other side of this trade because they have been trampled to death. Notice that the dollar made a low in Novemeber and returned to its low in March. Take note of the movemet in Oil and Stocks and Europe as the dollar sank.
They have used the dollar to prop up evrything but chicken feathers. The trade off is a spiking oil price. Everytime the market starts to sell off they catch it with a lower dollar. The higher oil price is the price they pay and at some point that price will be great enough to bring down the economy.
You can see by the green in the industry groups that the market is getting overbought. The Put/call ratio however, is still showing that the players have not fully embraced this rally yet. On the other hand, the Mikey is OB at 90 which is a high reading. I would suspect that we need to move a little higher in the short term to seal the deal. I think at this point the traders would buy any pull back now.
The current trend is up but the market is starting to shake violently now and the traders will get tired of being whipsawed and just take a side. I think that side will most certainly be the long side. The quarterly statements to the pensions and 401K plans will look real good after this latest rally and that should bring in more money for the insiders as April 15 approaches.
