Yes, MSFT looking a bit blue in the gills. Also have a look at MER ... in
fact the whole broker dealer index looks a bit soggy.

Utilities are an interesting one because the utilities are supposed to lead
the bonds and the utilities are still headed down. BUT ... the DJUA PE ratio
is 49.49 (not a typo 49.49), earnings yield is 2.02% and the dividend yield
is 3.63%. Earnings 7.00 and dividends 12.57 ... could it be that a machete
is about to be taken to the dividends?

Or how about the Transports waiting to suck up all those big profits from a
booming economy ... PE an astounding 367.24 (and you thought the NASDAQ was
overvalued), earnings at 7.79 and dividends at 38.05 ... they've got to be
borrowing a ton to make the payout.

You got a quick interpretation of those TBill charts? I wonder how many
people know that there was a post-crash time when people actually paid the
government to take their money and keep it safe. Same thing happened more
recently in Japan.
