from KingWorldNews:
Eric King: “Eric, what has you worried going forward?”
Sprott: “These policies of supporting the financial system or the banking system
are not going to work. QE1 didn’t work, QE2 didn’t work, now we’ve got
QE3 and Japanese money printing. Central banks are (also) now buying
stocks.
How much lunacy do we have to have? Just think through it a little.
It has to stop some day. We just can’t keep accelerating this without
one of two things happening: You are going to get a financial collapse,
or you are going to get hyperinflation….

with a reading above 70 and oversold when below 30. Note the RSI can
sustain an overbought (oversold) reading in a strong up (down) trend.

To review KB's stock, please take a look at the 1-year chart of KBH (KB Home) below with my added notations:
For the last (2) months KBH has been stuck within a common pattern known as a rectangle. Rectangle patterns form when a stock gets stuck bouncing between a horizontal support and resistance. A minimum of (2) successful tests of the support and (2) successful tests of the resistance will give you the pattern. KBH's rectangle pattern has formed a $22.50 resistance (red) and a $20 support (navy). A break above $22.50 would also be a new 52-week high.
The Tale of the Tape: KBH has formed a rectangle pattern. The possible long positions on the stock would be either on a pullback to $20, or on a breakout above $22.50. The ideal short opportunity would be on a break below $20.
