I was thumbing through charts (what else would I do with my time?) when I noticed one had hit a recent lifetime high? How could this be? Well, a glance at the name told me everything I needed to know: freakin’ CLOROX. One of the few stocks that people gobbled up during this insanity.
About a week ago, I was thinking to myself, “Tim, ol’ boy, you’ll be able to load up on cheap stocks and ride this bull higher! It’ll be like March 2009 was dropped into your lap!” I was genuinely excited about the prospect of having as much fun with bullish charts as bearish charts.

It was all going so well for the bulls. Just two days ago, we were hitting multi-year lows. Thanks to the shameless whores in Washington, and their desire to bail out their rich buddies, they were ready to throw $6 trillion at the billionaires (and a few shekels for common people, just to throw them off the scent). But Bernie came along and pissed all over it shortly before the close. The nearly 4,000 point rally got paused.
