There was a time, not long ago (like, ummm, early last week) that I would have felt cheated and flustered by the Chinese market’s tumble not having a bearish effect in the U.S. But at this point, I am so utterly distrustful (and numbed) by this market that I’m not at all surprised.
The Shanghai index fell the equivalent of over 1,100 Dow points last night, and our market – of course – went up. I truly believe – and I am seriously not exaggerating – that a nuclear bomb on a major city would not cause a major disruption in this bull market. I swear to God, this market is insane, and even the death of a million people would not stop it. It has lost its mind.
This market is inanely bullish, ain’t it. There is not reason for it, but yet it keeps going up. This is precisely why I will continue to play the long side . . .until being long no longer works. In this market, a dip like today will likely be snapped up tomorrow.
