The predictions are a contrary indicator that maybe the world is
not coming to an end. JNK is a confirming indicator that things are
getting better IMO.
Interesting discussion. JNK has moved in lock step with stocks
since Mar-2009. This is consistant with the bullish view that the
USFed would succeed with its monetary policy of
(re)inflating the debt bubble. Where private individuals and
companies have shied away from taking on more debt, the US
Govt has been stepping in to fill the void. The
govt has been borrowing approx $13K/year on
behalf of each working adult.

IMO, looking at the chart, it appears to putting in either a
intermediatary or long term top.
