ZeroHedge has a lot of shady things, and if you didn't know better you'd think the world was falling apart. That being said, their bearish view is pretty important when it gets confirmed by huge people. For instance, ZH has been beating the drums on high yield debt since summer of last year, then Icahn steps in and make similar comments and takes to task BlackRock CEO about their HY ETF being shady and the underlying market being illiquid. There hasn't been a high yield implosion, but a lot of people are betting there will be sometime in the near future. But maybe there won't be? Everything is a gamble, I've lost plenty of money being too early or too late. You can get decent trade ideas from ZH, but like you said, 95% of their items have to be taken with a grain of salt. The odd part is that most traders, professional traders, and some hedge fund managers frequent ZH and mostly agree on some of their doom scenarios; but the central banks pump the markets with so much money it's impossible to bet against the S&P. "Don't fight the Fed" is a slogan for a reason.
