Yup, very expected. The Fed is all in and that is all the market needed to get off the floor. The last bit of overhang is the auto bailout. Once that's settled, no matter which way it goes, things should settle right down.

I'm concerned that's not such a small overhang. But I guess the TARP funds can be thrown around like a druken sailor throwing bills at a strip club. Or is it soft-landing bankruptancy now? Won't be so soft when consumers avoid those cars even more than they do now!

UBS is forecasting Oil at $20/barrel in 09 and gold at $300. I wonder how this jives with their $156/barrel prediction in May.

It is mentally numbing seeing the market barely making any percentage moves throughout the day. I've been so conditioned to huge up and down swings in stocks that a few percent here and there don't feel like anything.
