As the S&P500 rocketed into the close this morning on yet another European bailout rumour, it occurred to me just how broken the equity market is right now. We are trapped in bear market dynamics of grinding sell-offs punctuated by explosive short-covering rallies with no end in sight.

….. Days like today are not some romantic struggle between bulls and bears, they are a reminder that in periods of structural risk that volatility reigns. Anyone that tells you otherwise is a fool or trying to sell you something.
