The RUT (small caps) has been leading the advance and is very near to running i...

http://economicspublisher.blogspot.com/2012/05/was-real-gdp-revised-up-or-down.html
Was real GDP revised up or down? Was real GDP revised up or down? Today's revised GDP report. Showed how it is important to check the details and not just the headline.

End of Day 2/9. End of Day 2/9. The markets gave Geithner a pass, plain and simple. In doing so, they showed much more patience with the bull than I ever would. I just don’t see any signs of adult supervision, it all appears to be the work of hormone raged teenagers and manipulative criminals to me. Pardon my petulance; the things I’m seeing are just hard to face – especially on a Monday. Before you’re biased by my charts and opinions, go to the bottom of the post and vote “funny” if yo...I wouldn’...
