Sven Henrich at the NorthmanTrader has an excellent article on The Carrot Top.
Henrich notes we have had 13 straight months of up in the global equity markets. However, central banking liquidity game has peaked and is dropping off:

Whether you are a bull or a bear, do yourself a favor and read Henrich’s excellent article.
