"WHO'S BUYING THE RALLY"

www.gainspainscapital.com
>>>As stocks continued to rally into September, one has to ask one’s self, "just who’s buying this rally?"
The answer?
Computers and no one else.

I’ve written extensively about the computer trading programs that are dominating this market. All told, High Frequency Trading Programs HFTPs control 70% of trading volume on the NYSE.

However, at this point, five stocks (yes only five) account for 40% of the trading volume on the market. Those five stocks: Citigroup, CIT Group, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and AIG. Think about that, five stocks out of several thousand, are accounting for 40% of ALL trading.
And which five are they?<<<<
