DrStool Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 "0.5% jump" Jump? Jump???? That's ZERO point five. One half of one per cent. They call that a jump? Normal moves in that index are 10 to 20%. What a crapload. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The brown one Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 My 2 cents worth: Soon the girliebulls will be hoping for "a salubrious con-SOLID-ation at the lows". As in we wish you a merry Christmas and a happy diarrhoea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrStool Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 Good suggestions all! Tanks. Keep 'em coming. As the market took a big dump, bears were feeling a salubrious consolidation at the lows. Ahhhhhhhhh.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sphinxter Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 I've looked high, and I've looked low. All over the various bullhorn sites and I can't find a single reference to the fact that the HUI took out a multi-year high yesterday. If the free stockcharts service went back far enough, I could even tell you how many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wndysrf Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 Hallmark Trade of the 2003 Bear Market 7 Step FEEDjam Process: 1. Gap the market down on the open 2. Check the decline after 100 points 3. Execute a salubrious consolidation at the lows, a.k.a "high anxiety" style 4. Gradually feed some bids into the futures pits to build the other side of the J-Lo Saucer Bottom, disguising it as a "bear flag" which everyone shorts into 5. Manage the bids to coil the index intraday trading to a super tight range, no more than .25 ticks in either direction 6. After a 38% retracement of the morning decline, send in the Program Robots with huge block buy orders every 5 minutes to start the Sawtooth Boner Blast 7. Once the indexes reach the 45 degree Boner Angle, 90 minutes before the close, unleash the 2nd wave of Robots to send the indexes into a vertical meltup mode into the close.

Bearbones Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 Martin Hutchinson has written a wonderful article on corporate options expense that includes this great intro: "Like a vampire whose captors can't find a silver stake, un-expensed stock options still wander among us, distorting earnings comparisons wherever they alight. The Financial Accounting Standards Board has now announced it won't produce a definitive ruling on expensing stock options until the second half of 2004 -- presumably after, not before November 2, 2004. Wimps!" http://www.upi.com/view.cfm?StoryID=200310...20-050048-2566r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normal moves in that index are 10 to 20%. What a crapload. Yah, exactly. Kind of like Scamazon posting a 'big increase in net earnings'. Let's see, instead of losing $35M like last year, they earned $16M on $1.13B in sales. That's a whopping 1.4% profit margin. Also known as "noise" about the mean. Which seems to be zero.

RockLedge Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 I've looked high, and I've looked low. All over the various bullhorn sites and I can't find a single reference to the fact that the HUI took out a multi-year high yesterday. If the free stockcharts service went back far enough, I could even tell you how many. I think Wndy spoke about it yesterday. Funny how all of that worked out that way... IMO, lots of bearish goldbugs out there. Sometimes that's a good thing I'd just like to see Silver hold the 5.00 mark, from here on out. <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearbones Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 The Fed has not been supportive of the market in recent weeks. One might say they are making an attempt at micro-management of the markets with their mouths and money. Perhaps they will let it slide without intervention. It remains to be seen, however, whether they can ease this thing down to more responsible levels and attempt a salubrious consolidation at the lows.
