Sell in May? Stop Kidding Yourself!

Those subscribing to the "Sell in May" mantra have missed out on a +2.3% gain from the S&P in less than 2 weeks. Those nervous nellies got what they deserved... nothing!

Fresh fuel came from Bernanke's speech Friday morning where he sang the same old script. The translation is simple:

Plenty more QE to come. Enjoy your stock rally.

At this stage investors need a reason to get bearish before stocks retreat. Soft economic data has proven to not be reason enough. They will need to see warnings of a looming recession to get them off the bullish gas pedal. Stay long until that happens.
