Money flow Sell signals were triggered on Friday...meanwhile, the Fed said they're to begin tapering their balance sheet, but not moving to raise interest rates any time soon, thanks to under achievement on "full employment" (now at 4.6% unemployment, yet labor participation is at a historic low); meanwhile, keeping their foot on the pedal to support asset prices, and in turn, to boost consumer confidence (note the correlation between markets and consumer confidence).
