The condition of the US economy compared to the other industrialized economies around the world is clearly superior and we are sucking in an awful lot of capital from abroad and that is part of this advance it reflects how competitive our economy is. This rapid advance in the beginning of the year wasn't really expected by anybody and you can't expect it to continue at this pace. But until the economy gets knocked off dead center -- and I don't see that happening yet -- I think we will have a market that continues to have more up days than down days.

The Fed didn't act because the economy looks like its still right around its equilibrium level. The economy is growing slowly, inflation is under control. So the Fed will just leave policy unchanged until the economy gets knocked off a dead center, and I don't think that's going to happen in the near future.
