Markets took off today as investors started talking about a bottom.

Corporate financial reports have been solid.

We're roughly 10% into earnings season, and about two-thirds of companies have reported better profits than investors expected.

Investors are feeling extremely pessimistic right now

. Bank of America's July Fund Manager Survey, which polls 259 investors managing $722 billion of assets, reported expectations for global growth and corporate profits at all-time lows. Investors are sitting on the most cash ever, with stock market allocations lower than in the middle of the 2008 Financial Crisis. So any news that's better than awful could keep the rally going.

The housing market continues to struggle.

The Commerce Department reported new home construction fell in June to the lowest since September after plunging in May.

High mortgage rates and record home prices have crushed home buyer demand.
