Looks to me like we can go higher on margin debt in the near term, at least 0.6 higher. BTW I am very fond of margin - its a good thing.

Maybe we can sell the margin debt to China.

You can’t buy options without margin. My guess is that short selling and puts are pretty high which is a bullish sign.
Now if on the other hand this money is mostly long (betting stocks go up) then it would be very worrisome. Kind of like 1999 and earlly 2000.
