Am I wrong in assuming that the Stock Market is directly affected by Bernacke's printing? Kinda like middle men 'laundering' the money, and taking a small cut in some way? I heard something akin to this, but never really understood it. Romney indicated that he would FIRE Bernacke; begged him NOT to do QE3. So if Romney looks like a winner...a bunch will bail out of the SM...because they will know what is comin. I can not imagine how Romney/Tea Party will manage this thing. Glad it aint on my shoulders. Could get really messy. Real fast.

51% is quite high. would take another market bubble to pop Dow Jones is currently above 13,500. 10% correction would put it at 12,150 20% correction would put it at 10,800 i really don't see it falling back below 10k without some major bubble popping, Europe included. The market is over inflated and will see a correction, more likely a 15%+/- correction

bull shite. 1. a rally does not "mean" anything. 2. metaphors of distance do not translate into economic indicators. And perhaps this is a good time to point out that one famous right wing gold seller emailer had told us all that the ENTIRE WORLD ECONOMY was going to collapse and that Oct 1 was the date.

Why did it rally? What causes stocks to go up? Was there a economic boom? or was there an influx in corporate margins? What would that occur? What happens when it does occur?

A rally always means something because rallies don't happen for no reason. A rally may mean nothing serious or nothing important, but it always means something.

Corporate earnings have been relatively strong for over a year now. I think 10-15% correction is about right from the current levels.
