Stock markets rocket from buy levels

Emini S&P futures

Emini S&P March futures hit the downside target of 6850/6840 & held above 6815 keeping us long for the expected recovery to 6865/6870 & minor resistance at 6890/6900 on Wednesday.

The break above 6910 then triggered further gains as expected to my targets of 6918/20 & 6930/40.

As predicted we made a high for the day at 6945 and shorts worked on the to 6911 yesterday morning.

We wrote yesterday: I do think that we have resumed the bull trend and eventually a break above 6950 we'll be seen. We can then fill the gap at 6960 & above here is a buy signal targeting 6975.

We should be on the way top 6975 & above here look for 7000/7005 today.

Support at 6915/05 & longs need stops below 6895.

Regime change: Inside Kevin Warsh's first move to make the Fed unreadable on purpose

The rate did not move. That was the least interesting thing about Kevin Warsh's first meeting in charge of the Fed.
