So let's see. We lost 357,000 jobs last week, up 17,000 from 341,000 the previous week. Unemployment is at 7.7%, but the participation rate DROPPED last month. AND, we LOST full time jobs while gaining part time jobs last month.

And the government is still printing and borrowing to keep the economy from falling into another recession, which is a confession that the economy hasn't been fixed, that is it can't grow on its own, yet.

And yet the stock market is continuing to set records.

“And yet the stock market is continuing to set records.”

If I read the numbers right, the average daily volume on the DOW over the last three months is ~124 million shares.

That’s kinda low, isn’t it?

By which I mean how realistic is the “record high” if hardly any shares are being traded?

Is market manipulation afoot?

We are going to lose a lot more full time jobs in favor of part time jobs due to obamacare.

We may also see an increase in the number of people working 2 or more jobs, although with the struggling economy that seems unlikely.
