U.S. Stocks Just Had Their Best Day Ever \u2013 And Here Is Why That Is A REALLY Bad Sign\u2026<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/header>\n
\n

\"\"<\/a>The Dow Jones Industrial Average just posted its biggest single day point gain ever.\u00a0 On Wednesday, the Dow shot up 1,086 points, which shattered the old record by a staggering 150 points.\u00a0 It truly was a remarkable day, and this is the sort of \u201cSanta Claus rally\u201d that investors had been hoping for.\u00a0 Many are convinced that this rally is an indication that the crisis of the last three months is over, but as you will see below, this sort of extreme volatility is actually a really bad sign.\u00a0 But for the moment, the mainstream media is pushing the narrative that everything is once again peachy keen in the financial world.\u00a0 Just consider the following quote from CNN<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cInvestors went bargain shopping the day after Christmas, where stocks just got too cheap relative to earnings, future earnings, any reasonable assessment of earnings,\u201d said Chris Rupkey, managing director of MUFG. \u201cThe coast is clear, back up the truck, investors are saying enough already, the world is not ending.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The coast is clear?<\/p>\n

Really?<\/p>\n

Do you think that they were saying the same thing on October 13th, 2008?\u00a0 On that day, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 936 points, and at the time it was the biggest daily point increase that Wall Street had ever seen by a very wide margin.<\/p>\n

Of course that was right in the middle of the last financial crisis, and stocks just kept on tumbling after that massive rally.<\/p>\n

But then on October 28th, 2008 the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 889 points.\u00a0 Up until Wednesday, that was the second biggest daily point increase in U.S. history.<\/p>\n

Was the crisis over then?<\/p>\n

No way.\u00a0 Subsequently, the Dow kept on falling until it eventually bottomed out in early 2009.<\/p>\n
