Market Chess Presents: NFL Divisional Round Picks and Discussion

In the interest of having some fun, we look at the coming NFL Divisional Round playoff games tonight and tomorrow.

I Like My Nose, Mrs. Mulwray

All things considered, the further push higher in equities this morning seems just a bit too easy for bulls. We have indeed weathered a whirlwind bunch of headlines and potential market shocks over the last week or so, with shorts finding themselves trapped badly more often than not.

The Linchpin for This Market Right Now

A linchpin, also spelled linch pin, lynchpin, or lynch pin, is a fastener used to prevent a wheel or other part from sliding off the axle upon which it is riding.
