Big problem even I can see now.

Guys on SquawkBox are all smiles; DOW futures are up 450 ish.

If 1 AM (CA time) comes around and the rally doesn't hold, everybody will be heading for the exit doors.

Today could be definitive; the smiling people WANT this to work.

A vivid image of what should exist acts as a surrogate for reality. Pursuit of the image then prevents pursuit of the reality -- John K. Galbraith
