There are some troubling aspects to be aware of. For one thing I've never trusted market moves that are obvious responses to specific news. And this advance, deserving as it probably was, was emphatically in direct response to something that has been in short supply lately--good news. Good news has a tendency to attract too high a proportion of suckers.
Secondly, a flashy advance of this kind goes hand-in-hand with dramatically increasing volume. Today, volume was actually down in the Dow's 497 point advance. It was down on the advances in the SP-500 and NYSE Index. It was down only a little for the Nasdaq Brothers, but it was down just the same.

Elevator to 7400 please
