Historically, one of the nice things for me about doing a blog related to the stock market is that the topic of my writing is ever-changing. But I gotta tell ya, there’s nothing more boring than a captured market (and if you don’t recognize this is a captured market, you aren’t paying attention), and it’s getting tougher and tougher to gen up the interest to write about it. This also explains the paucity of content from outsider contributors (they’ve written me privately to let me know they’re pulling their hair out from this creep-up-every-day nonsense).

In any case, the show must go on, so I’ll toss three shortable charts out there. But make no mistake, this “market” is putting my feet to sleep. For what it’s worth…
