and therein lies the problem...money going into defensives and not into the resources (or do they still need to catch up?). I see this as positioning for the risk off trade that is to come.

if resources start to rally we'll see 36k or 37k in a blink .. and all that needs is some decent growth data (real or perceived and forgetting about Europe, we won't see growth there for a decade or two), China GDP number was good, decent durable goods today in US ..

Adjust this for the drop in the rand since the last high - and WOW! 20% higher than the previous best. And - (in line with your comment) - the realLy rand sensitive stocks have yet to join the party - resources (to wit!) Now add to that the fact that SA's manufacturing Industry is floundering and it is all the more impressive!

you should be on TV like all the other talking heads and economists. I prefer my trading without the economic BS.

Evidently you also prefer "your trading" without a profit. I would, however like to return the sentiment - you too should be on TV - on the Comedy Channel - in prime time!

Is every single thread on the forum going to get hijacked with this irrelevant dribble between Rams and Alsitrader? And is every single thread going to get hijacked by Alsitrader's myopic view of world markets? ooh boy
