Anchors Away:
The financial sphere along with the ruling army of entrenched corporate and political elites, deeply committed and harboring inordinate interest in perpetuating an unsustainable war/debt-based prosperity paradigm - are keeping their fingers tightly-crossed that "hope" and illusion, along with a likely forthcoming tsunami of ponzi-rigged bailout schemes will float the right number of boats - rather than sink the good-ship Lollie-Pop. It is in all of our best interest that all such hope truly "float," unlike the sinking anchor and shackle effects of fiat currency.

Ruling Elites:
A multi-generational mutation - spawning oblivious visionary-wizards of social decay, have been slowly digging their own graves for more than one-hundred years now. When the last of them finally finish the job, may those with genuinely good intent R.I.P, and those without R.I.H.

A long, long way to go - in getting to "UNCLE"
Delusion and denial will likely reign supreme for a period. Until fear grips societies at the undeniable and clear visible hand of widespread economic pain, business shall continue virtually unabated, in its usual arcane manner.

We are the Men in Black:
High volatility, low volatility, fresh historic highs, corrections, bull-markets, bear-markets, spikes, 3rd-waves, 5th-waves, 4th-waves, V-bottoms, double tops, turn-dates, super-cycles - whatever... Nothing gets past our radar - NOTHING.

The Week in Review:

The NASDAQ 100

The NDX:

Stinging like a bee in August - will "hope-float" the NDX back to a new high above 2060?

After three-weeks of unsustainable non-stop rally off the V-bottom low in August, the NDX must now stand-and-deliver into the heart of the "fall" season.

As we ponder such question, let us see how the balance of broad market indices' are floating into the month of September:

Re-testing multi-year lows, The Dollar remains under pressure and has a ways to go before reaching its lower trend channel boundary of support.

Though lagging the NDX in terms of snap-back percentages only, The Dow also maintains a level of "float-status" off the V-bottom low in August.

Gold has spoken - implying imminent anticipation toward a glut of global bailout schemes that will further erode purchasing power of the world's fiat currency's.

Though its trajectory channel is virtually flat in comparison to the Dow, The S&P is in "float-mode" just the same.
