FUNDAMENTAL NEWS
Geopolitical concerns spoiled what might have been a great week for the bulls as hedging and massive Put buying served to retard forward progress. As a result of the North Korean shelling the South Korean Yeonpyeong Island, massive OEX Put buying highlighted the shortened trading day Friday as some traders sought some downside protection.Overall trading volume was less in the shortened trading session. Nasdaq remained higher, however, with less regard to the events.
The dollar continued its steep ascent now closing at 80.35, a rally from 76.08, which began November 4th, a rally of 5.6%. Concomitantly, equities have fared better than might be expected falling less than the greenback has climbed. The Dow has dropped from 11,434 to 11,092 ( 3% ); the S&P 500 1221 to 1189 or 2.6% and Nasdaq 2577 to 2534, a decline of 1.7%.
Eight of the Ten Dow Industrial Groups were lower led by Financials off a modest 2.07% followed by Oil and Gas off 1.66%. Health Care fell 1.07% and Telecommunications 1.03%.
The other four small losers: Basic Materials, Utilities, Technology and Consumer Goods all fell less than 1%. Both Consumer Services ( + 0.56%) and Industrials ( + 0.05% ) were up slightly for the week.

FUNDAMENTAL NEWS
Stocks got hit last week following nine weeks up out of the last ten. It finally dawned on the market that government institutions, especially the state and city municipalities, are unable financially to even make good on existing contracts, let alone make new capital purchases. Cisco ( CSCO: $ 20.15 ), down 21% last week made that come to light with poor sales and earnings due to lackluster government sales. Adding to the woes of the market longs, the Chinese raised interest rates and the meeting of the G-20 did nothing to support either the president or the fed chairman. Very few people understand either QE-2 or the brilliance of the current fed chairman. However, the current attitude of all the observing pundits might make difficult a follow through of Bernanke’s plan.
