This market has nothing to do with Fed liquidity. It's been driven by illiquidity. Almost every night for a month, the day's price has been set by a small number of transactions in the futures market at the least liquid time of night.

The S&P is up double digits this month, however, most of the action occurred at night. Month-to-date, we’ve had just one day that traded more than 10 points on either side of unchanged and today was yet another gap that remained on that side of unchanged for the day.

"In bull markets stocks don't go down on bad news."

 For the SP 500, today was the 9th day in the past 10 days, the day session gaped and remained on that side of unchanged. That has NEVER happened before. We've seen 8 of 10 but never 9 of 10. The interesting part is we've gone nowhere in the 10 days and are right in the middle of that range.
