It's a great deal for individual investors, but I don't know what kind of incentive the elimination of the tax is going to give to some of the cash cows to start offering dividends.

Many fund managers, if they're not in for a two-day rally, they risk falling behind for the whole year. How do you minimize risk? By hugging the index as best you can.

You do not want to try to time these short-term rallies. The market is trading on propaganda, not fundamentals. It's crazy. There's nothing else to say.
