    Our focus over the last two weeks has been the persistent weakness of economic numbers and the markets conclusion thata rebound in the second half may not be coming. This newsletter has been calling for a near term bounce and today lookslike the start. Stocks are ready to bounce not because of great optimism but rather because the short term pessimism isexcessive. Lower inflation numbers, reasonably good corporate earnings, and a loose monetary policy provides a positivebackground for stocks and when the market tires of focusing on sovereign debt issues it wants to rally. Although the hori-zontal support in the chart has been overrun it is not unusual for the market to exaggerate a move when politics interfere.The analysis is for educational purposes only and not a solicitation to buy or sell any security at any time. The commentsare made in the context of ETF position trading and Forex position trading.

    Too much pessimism has it run its course?
