Today, I talk about the rally that has begun, and likely has a good bit more room to go. However, don’t get too excited, as we go down the roads of history and discuss a section from Ray Dalio’s Big Debt Crises where he talks about news-based rallies during the Great Depression (Not that we’re in a depression, but we are probably in more than a simple bear market.)

• Every market pumped. I talk numbers on them.
• Vix went way down, gold and bitcoin are up… giving more credit to the vix high = gold & btc low correlation.
• Oil might have the most room for upside, but it’s not an easy one due to the political and human elements.
