The Big Three’s ignorance of an astounding market rally reached a climax last night.

The S&P 500 closed at 3,389.78, breaking a record set at its February peak (3,386.15). It eliminated all of its losses taken from the pandemic-induced shutdown in the months after. The Wall Street Journal reported that “[w]ith just 126 trading days between peaks, the index makes its fastest-ever recovery from a bear market.” [Emphasis added.] The index’s recovery is indeed V-shaped. The Big Tech-heavy NASDAQ Composite stock index also rose 0.73 percent to close at 11,210.84, setting another record high of its own, according to Fox Business August 18.

ABC World News Tonight, CBS Evening News, and NBC Nightly News ignored the entire market story. They instead chose to do political PR for Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s wife Jill, boosting her image prior to her speech before the virtual Democratic National Convention.

But of course. They don’t want to report any good news, lest people give any credit to Trump or his policies.

More in kind contributions to the Biden campaign. FCC should get involved. By any measure a new S&P record is a national story. For all three to sit on it is collusion and a political act. It is not the first time.

Trouble is the market is fairly overbought at the moment. Hopefully we can get a correction ASAP in order to have the market rising into November.
