One of my US chums sent me the story of the Half-a-Bernie sign propped up against a wall. Someone had cut it neatly in two and left the wooden handle affixed to the remaining half. Attached was a note:&nbsp;<em>\u201cDear Bernie; you had a sign and I didn\u2019t, so I took half.

Whether is the cumulative effect of US rate path expectations (Fed today), China Trade Wars, Trump vs Europe, (ECB tomorrow), Brexit, and all the rest.. or the UK mid-term holidays,&nbsp;<strong>the whole market feels thin and rudderless<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At least Wal-Mart surprised to the upside! One of my top stock technical commentators is my old buddy Steve Previs of Mint who calls it \u201ccomplacent.\u201d That\u2019s never a good thing. His charts are telling him to look for a \u201ccorrective C wave\u201d but for now he\u2019s patient as \u201cFOMO\u201d (Fear of Missing Out) continues to drive the current trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am fortunate enough to work with some very bright folk here at Shard. Yesterday we were shooting the breeze on the current market uncertainties, threats and fears. We came to the conclusion we\u2019ll know the moment we hit the Reefs of Crisis when we hear the crashing wail of market liquidity vanishing.&nbsp;<strong>What\u2019s that sound \u2013 it\u2019s the Macro Liquidity Storm!
