True but is the key rate, size of pumping or size of pumping relative to the size of the pumped up money supply? It do make a difference.I like to keep things simple. When the fed stops pumping them up, they will fall and fall hard.

The percentage of bulls in the Daily Sentiment index (trade-futures.com) peaked back in May at over 90%. In July it went to 89% and last tuesday (of this week) it hit 88%. Investor sentiment is so bullish that the market is rising even on bad news.
Personally, I'd buy cheap, deep out of the money S&P500 puts with a long expiration- out to June or Sept 14.
Happy trading!

The people at the Fed are not stupid, so there must be a rational explanation. This is an attempt to figure out their 'game plan'.
