This market seems
to be hyper-sensitive to interest rate rises....
bad news on
employement is good news for it right now.

sp500/nasdaq top
Fascinating market action ... SPX has rallied to 1162.99 (within my
target range) while the price of the June 1150 puts I hold (and had orders
for more) has also rallied. This suggests that the market is putting in a
blow-off. Had to short emini since it looks like they won't fill my put
order.
I assume that this rally is all about the perceived notion that the Fed
won't raise rates so the market can party longer. Not a thought to the
fact that continued employment problems will lead to reduced consumption and
other (economic and political) fall-out from reduced consumer confidence.
Foreign currencies are rallying hard which means even higher energy prices are
in the cards.

SPX is very close to long standing target range of 1060-1073 which
includes: 50% retracement to ATH, 200% expansion of Oct02-Mar03 swing,
and Dec01-Mar02 triple top.
I closed out long emini position just ahead of Thursday's close leaving
in place a SPX put established on Wednesday. I also have orders working
to add to put position on any rally from monthly Employment Lie. During
the past couple of weeks I've closed out all trading positions in stocks and
now hold significant cash position. I still like energy stocks and hold core
positions to which I will add during any correction in equities.
There should be good support in the 1015+- area which includes the 38%
retracement to the Mar03 low and the Jun-Jul03 highs. If this area holds,
then another run to higher highs (1250+-) could be in the cards. On a
fundamental basis, the market is richly priced and risks are strongly to the
downside should the public lose its taste for speculation.

Most likely 3/5/04 should be a
top for a while
get out of longs and if you have long
term gains consider writing calls
most likely next is 1050 on
sp
if I am wrong, the max upside is only 10-15
sp points
