DrStool Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 $32 billion in one shot is a lot of cash. It won't be until December, but does it change the equation? If MSFT is doing it, who might be next, is what the players will be looking at. We've had a cash build in the last 4 weeks. The SPX is already set for a 5 point plus gap on the open. There is certain to be some additional panic buying on the open. This could be a huge gap in the morning. The 3 day cmap on the SPY implies a high of 1117. I can't see them getting it back below 1112 before the close. If they don't, then there's more to come. Then there's the business of the break of the Nas long term trendline and subsequent WHOPsaw. Those can be wildly boolish. So I'm cautious here. I want to see how things look at the close tomorrow. A reversal day would be nice but I am not counting on it. All covered in detail in tonight's Anals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
threadbare Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 Man, am I reading right? Bush said he's channelling God? You mean to tell me that the supreme be all and end all, the alpha and the omega, chose the idiot son of an a**hole to mouth his words? Or, horror of horrors, Bush is actually okay and it's God who has the problem. Either way, it's an unpleasant thought. To think I've been praying to a goof, or a Goof. Hooo boy.

Guest Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 Plunger; I heard the story spread about that Col. Putin lowered the boom on the controlling personalities of YUKOS because he, or whoever he answers to, felt that they were too chummy with western oil multinationals and were contriving to put control of Russian proven reserves into foreign hands. How much truth there is to that story I couldn't say. Halliburton get a management contract as to YUKOS assets? It's a screwy world. I no longer have much confidence in my ability to declare, with accuracy, what is too bizarre to happen. I have no idea what is really going on, but I try to view everything from the most ridiculous and contrary perspective when things don't make sense. Remember when Putin came out of the blue and declared that he had provided Bush with information linking AlQaeda and Iraq? Even our own intelligence community stated that they had no idea what he was talking about. What that showed me is that Putin and bush had struck some very new and different type of relationship, and that Putin in a very Ham Handed over the top fashion was trying to help his new partner in crime. I know nothing. I question everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brian4 Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 I agree Doc on the 1117 area-burning out there would be great..Stain 1121 would also be ok as long as we closed under it, for now my stop is 1110 if stopped I'll wait for the burn out. A close over 1120 would throw everyone for a loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, horror of horrors, Bush is actually okay and it's God who has the problem. Either way, it's an unpleasant thought. To think I've been praying to a goof, or a Goof. Hooo boy. Brings to mind a often posted song by F.Z. Read the words. Dumb all over. Whoever we are Wherever we?re from We shoulda noticed by now Our behavior is dumb And if our chances Expect to improve It?s gonna take a lot more Than tryin? to remove The other race Or the other whatever From the face Of the planet altogether They call it the earth Which is a dumb kinda name But they named it right ?cause we behave the same... We are dumb all over Dumb all over, Yes we are Dumb all over, Near ?n far Dumb all over, Black ?n white People, we is not wrapped tight Nurds on the left Nurds on the right Religous fanatics On the air every night Sayin? the bible Tells the story Makes the details Sound real gory ?bout what to do If the geeks over there Don?t believe in the book We got over here You can?t run a race Without no feet ?n pretty soon There won?t be no street For dummies to jog on Or doggies to dog on Religous fanatics Can make it be all gone (I mean it won?t blow up ?n disappear It?ll just look ugly For a thousand years...) You can?t run a country By a book of religion Not by a heap Or a lump or a smidgeon Of foolish rules Of ancient date Designed to make You all feel great While you fold, spindle And mutilate Those unbelievers From a neighboring state To arms! to arms! Hooray! that?s great Two legs ain?t bad Unless there?s a crate They ship the parts To mama in For souvenirs: two ears (get down!) Not his, not hers, (but what the hey? ) The good book says: ("it gotta be that way!") But their book says: "revenge the crusades... With whips ?n chains ?n hand grenades..." Two arms? two arms? Have another and another Our God says: "there ain?t no other!" Our God says "it?s all okay!" Our God says "this is the way!" It says in the book: "burn ?n destroy... ?n repent, ?n redeem ?n revenge, ?n deploy ?n rumble thee forth To the land of the unbelieving scum on the other side ?cause they don?t go for what?s in the book ?n that makes ?em bad So verily we must choppeth them up And stompeth them down Or rent a nice french bomb To poof them out of existance While leaving their real estate just where we need it To use again For temples in which to praise our god ("cause he can really take care of business!") And when his humble tv servant With humble white hair And humble glasses And a nice brown suit And maybe a blond wife who takes phone calls Tells us our God says It?s okay to do this stuff Then we gotta do it, ?cause if we don?t do it, We ain?t gwine up to hebbin! (depending on which book you?re using at the Time...can?t use theirs... it don?t work ...it?s all lies...gotta use mine...) Ain?t that right? That?s what they say Every night... Every day... Hey, we can?t really be dumb If we?re just following god?s orders Hey, let?s get serious... God knows what he?s doin? He wrote this book here An? the book says: He made us all to be just like him," So... If we?re dumb... Then God is dumb...

The End Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 I have a question about your signature BDK. Are you expecting a $ bull market? The one thing I feel confidant about is an eventual collapse of the doo-lar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machinehead Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 This is some extremely important interest rate-debt statistics done and posted by WRS........at Bear Chat............ http://www.timebomb2000.com/vb/showthread.php?t=109031 Wow. Brilliant, classic post from WRS. His second chart shows how a gentle, 1% annual increase in the interest paid on govt debt, will quickly drive both interest costs and the deficit to exponential rises. These mathematics are very probable and very real. Print out a copy and post it on your wall. These are the funny-mentals which will rule the markets during the next couple of years.
