Drifting up on low volumes in a gentle ongoing short squeeze.
These types of markets typically run into a hard event and crumple. The timing may be problematic for the punters, and so the gentle short squeeze is fed daily.
The equity market commentary on the US financial news networks would make Baghdad Bob blush. I think the wiseguys are getting a little nervous because mom and pop seem to be sitting this one out.

Behind the concrete, the visible events, behind all the objective, logical considerations, we find the struggle against evil, against the servants of the antichrist. Everywhere and always demonic powers lurk in the dark, waiting for the moment when man is weak. When he yields to the forces of evil, he separates himself from the power of a higher order; after taking the first step, he is driven on and on to the next and to the next, at a furiously accelerating rate.
