Good news?

News. July 27 (Bloomberg) -- Analysts are raising U.S. profit estimates for the first time since credit markets froze two years ago, reducing valuations even after the steepest rally since the Great Depression.

The estimates indicate S&P 500 corporate earnings will rise 25 percent from this year’s projected $59.80 a share, which would be the biggest increase since 1995, the data show.

My point. Investors did not believe in the move of the market. The news were terrible. And the market kept rising. Now sentiment is beginning to change. People forget the market discounts the news.
