The slide in the Nikkei just goes to show how deeply overbought these markets are. Players have been caught up in the euphoria. Now it's time to face reality.
The U.S. (market) is still stuck in a rut. We are calling the Dow up on the day, but so far every rally in the pre-market this week has been met with selling once the regular trading session got under way,
There is no doubt that the recent rally is fueled by a lot of short covering from bears thinking the New Orleans debacle would cause jitters on Wall Street.
They may even ease rates because of Katrina.
Valuations are very high for the current economic climate or indeed even a prosperous climate. So it looks like what we are dealing with here is a bear market rally.
We are obviously expecting to a see a sea of red this morning. The selling has been relentless through the night and currently the Dow is being called down about 100 points.
We could see a little bit of a relief bounce if the (economic) numbers are good. Also, today and Monday are the last days of the month, so it wouldn't surprise me if some funds throw a little bit of money at the market to boost some key names ahead of the 31st of October.
