So many fear the tapering but when it happened, the DJ shot up close to 300 points. Shows that there is always 2 ways of looking at everything. For me, I am actually more bullish now as this must surely be a move in the right direction. It gives a very positive signal for the US economy and at the end of the day, confidence is really all that matters. Dow, S&P 500 hit new highs on Fed's 'Taper Lite' |

Tapering only $10b, there is still $75b bond buying. The party continues. Yes, it does mean that the US economy is getting better, slowly.

Asian Stocks Rise After Federal Reserve Begins Tapering StimulusAsian stocks rose after the Federal Reserve expressed enough confidence in the U.S. labor market to taper asset purchases while still promising to hold interest rates close to zero.“It’s a win win for markets,” Shane Oliver, who helps oversee $131 billion as head of investment strategy at AMP Capital Investors Ltd. in Sydney, said by phone. “They are more optimistic on the employment rate and the economy while still keeping loose monetary policy in place with low rates to support the economy. We’re happy to stay overweight equities and if anything buy a bit more.” Bernanke Comments
“Reflecting cumulative progress and an improved outlook for the job market, the committee decided today to modestly reduce the monthly pace at which it is adding to the longer-term securities on its balance sheet,” Bernanke told reporters in Washington yesterday after concluding a two-day policy meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee. www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-12-19/asian-stocks-rise-after-fed-begins-tapering-u-s-stimulus.html |

It is obvious that US tapering effects are not the same in Asian and US markets. May be the US investors take importance of the lower interest rate which would boost the Corporate earnings due to lowering of borrowing cost; whereas the Asian investors are worried that US Fund spendings in Asia would be curtailed and the lower interest rate in US has little or no effect in business costs in Asia..
It is possible also that there is a so called "Plunge Protection Team" (PPT) working yesterday.. the same message delivered by Bernanke in May has different effect.. then there was no dateline attached to the holding of low interest rate.. If that being the case, we should see index finding its way back down slowing..

By the way, that is from one trader.. his daring bet assumed that VIX will take only 4 months to rise from the present level to 22 whereas VIX took 17 months to come down from 22 to the present level.. |

DOW has an unusually high volume last night. Is it a sign of more upside to come, especially when price is at historical high or it is just another sign for a trend reversal? It is hard to tell at the moment, not until DOW has broken down.. It is definitely something to watch..  However, the hourly chart is showing some signs of fatigue as the volume and price has started to fall in late hours, eating up the gains. The other indicators are all showing sign of reversal from overbuying.. will this be the reversal? Next week should be able to tell  |

Stocks hailed the Fed's decision of next "monetary loosening" and continued to climb but quietly, the bond holders are not quite convinced and started their sell off with 10-yr yield threatening to brush the previous record of 3% last night... it is just performed a stunning climb of about 2% to 2.981 yesterday after having fell to 2.885 following Bernanke's tapering announcement. The chart is showing that the 10-year yield will continue to climb as long as it stays inside the rising channel. It would definitely bleach the 3% high to complete the 3rd wave which started since May 2013 after Bernanke first announced the news of tapering..  |
