The jobs numbers today were quite shocking. Interestingly enough the market actually behaved the way one would expect on bad news. That in and of itself is unusual since we began this whole stimulus business. What changed? It's more I think about what's about to change -

NEW YORK (Reuters) – The Federal Reserve’s $600 billion Treasury buying spree is over and the bond market is growing nervous now that its biggest bidder has stepped aside.

Does anyone even understand what a billion really is? Try this, 1 billion seconds from now it will be 9:43PM PDT in the year 2043. (roughly) 1 mississippi, 2 mississippi, 3 mississippi, ...

The calendar says Tuesday but it sure felt like Monday. Instead of episode 1,076 it sounded more like episode 1 (except the part where I said the date). No it was fine. Well ok... the part David did was fine. I kept getting interrupted. There goes the Fox News slot... (I did not write that tweet. Honest)

The market was tradable even though the range was shallow. I'll post a few charts below and if you have any questions regarding the setup, the free trial, or the demo, call 1-866-928-3310 or email us tech@cfrn.net .

Let's check in on the Sentiment Indicator first -

Q:Is it Spring in Pamplona, 113 degrees in Phoenix, or are the Bulls just Smokin' Hot on Wall Street?

A:It's not spring in Spain, it will be 116 degrees tomorrow, and the Bulls are about to get Smoked Like Salmon. Just ask any Bear...

All I really know is this -
"We are definitely headed higher unless we start to break down."

Seriously? Yes, according to the guys on TV. What's even stranger is the fact that some people actually attempt to trade off such vaguery. Are you guilty? Admit it now and feel better soon. Seriously.

Partners meeting tonight. No time for chit chat. See ya' there...

E-Mini S&P 500: Will exhilaration lead to acceleration?

The E-Mini S&P 500 had surges of optimism throughout the day as reports came in to validate the growth possibilities! The Initial Jobless Claims only fell by 1,000, which was better than a week before, but under analyst expectations. The Institute for Supply Management-Chicago reported that it was up 61.1 from 56.6 in May.

Rocky start but we finished with a flourish. I had dinner last night with Sheriff Joe. The previous evening he dined with Ted Nugent. Based on the LinkedIn theory of relativity I'm now one degree from cat scratch fever. Right? Is that how that works? Hello! Is this thing on........ (tap tap)

We went a little politico today talking guns and immigration and I do understand that some members of our audience get a little rattled when we go down that road. You shouldn't. You should get warm and fuzzy. Why? Not because of what we say, but because you and I both live in a country (at least some of us do) where I can have my opinion, you can have yours, we can discuss them openly and freely, and we don't wind up in shackles because of it. Well, most of the time anyway.

CFRN Emini FuturesCast 06/28/11

We're back... and sitting tall in the saddle after 5 days of techno-hell. No sense taking up white space here, just click the headphones and hear all about it (twice).

I get questions 'bout dem zones from time to time...

Stuff like, "Do they work?"
To which I answer playfully, (if I'm not in a mood) "No they lead a life of leisure and hedonistic pleasure. They've never worked a day in their life."

Huh? Exactly!

People respond to my answer the same way I respond to their question.

Take a hammer. Well don't take it, borrow it, or buy it. Chances are you already have a hammer. Right? In fact some of you might even have specialty hammers. Claws and mallets and such. Now let me ask you this about your favorite hammer.
