    Three "tips/gems" I have picked up from twitterati lately that make sense to me.
    1) It takes flows of cash in/out to move prices in any market. The stock market is a derivative of the much larger bond market. When bond yields are falling, bond prices rising, it is a move to the perceived safety of bonds by big money and stocks may fall as that money exits stocks. Conversely as yields rise and they are prepared to take on more risk, the cash may go into stocks (or real estate) pushing the market up.
    2) "All financial assets are derivatives of energy prices". Coming from the theory that energy costs affect most sectors of the economy - makes sense to me. Wonder why the USA creates conflict with all nations that have raw energy assets?
    3) The algorithms that are used by many funds and large investors are driven primarily by momentum. Once an asset class gets positive momentum, climb on board and take the free rise up.

    Just market hacks for small players to bear in mind, if you agree.
