Today's markets

The business cycle is alive and well. This is what happened today.

--- Production....weak.
--- Inflation....declining
--- Dollar ....mixed
--- Stocks....broadly strong
--- Commodities...weak
--- Bonds....weak

Bottom line. The strong sectors are those strong in a weak economic environment. Commodities are weak because of the slow growth. Weak commodities are causing inflation to decline. What happened to the nonsense about China and its economic growth? The global business cycle is perfectly synchronized.

A final thought. We are doing all we can to set the groundwork for the next bubble.
