weekly update 7/9

Sticking to plan in previous post and staying short here. Both equities and broad based commodities basket. Very strong "short" focus by also being long the dollar vs various other currencies. Sure it is possible we will see the squeeze continuing one more week but up here it is not worth chasing even if the last points in a bull run squeeze like this is very "easy" money for the correctly positioned traders. With easy, I mean that it is usually a low volume, quick increase in asset prices, compared to the more long term fundamentally anchored increase that is more choppy.
