Lobbyists pushed off advisory panels

All right! WTG! I'm hoping that the next step in this right direction will be to get rid of Timmy. Then get rid of the Fed. Anyone have other suggestions?

 

 

Drop a Fat Boy on DC and start over.

A Suggestion for Mr Widget

 

Maybe there could be a page such as "The Mind of Mr Widget" which could catalog some of these awesome analyses?

 

Comments are open at the bottom of the Mr. W. page. No one is using them.

 

In fact, no one is visiting the page except for a couple of you guys. It's been a total dud. I'm disappointed, but I'm not gonna push it any more. If people want to try to figure it out and use it, it's there.

Well, you just hold on a second there, MDPorter.

 

Shorty and I were going to drop in on the Obamas for a little dinner tonight. It's easy, we're just gonna go up to the guys at the gate and tell 'em Barack invited us, and not to worry whether we're on the list.

 

Forget about visiting the White House. When Shorty's money come in from those penny stocks he just might be buying a house bigger than the White House. The Spelling Manor is still available for $150 million. Never mind what the Realtor said about caring more about quality than quantity. When Shorty lays that 150 really big ones down any questions about quality or a fondness for Krispy Kreme will go right out the window.

Here's the party line:

 

"Stores were encouraged that shoppers appeared to be a little freer with their spending. Best Buy, Sears Holdings Corp. and Mall of America, as well as mall operators Taubman Centers and Simon Property Group, offered signs people were buying more than last year...... [bestBuy store manager] said shoppers were filling their baskets with more items than a year ago, when they were shellshocked after the financial meltdown. The biggest draws were laptops, TVs and GPS systems, he said."

 

So that will be the excuse if they decide Monday's a good day to die.... if you're a bear.

Dear MD Porter: the trouble is that instead, they Dumped Frat Boyz on Washington DC.

 

and

 

how about the Secret jickiss doolar-Gold Indicator ???? you may ask....

 

answer: here it be. the Indicator, having Paused for a Prechtard Minute (3 weak ends of weeks or so) now shows the way again, says your jickiss. One Line has been and still is KEY. Marked for your ease of perception. Click and Make it Big. Then Thimk! The Mills of the gods have been grinding slowly. Fear, the sickening kind, the kind that makes Grown Men Sweat right through their Suits, as they stare at their Screens, will soon be here.

 

yup, Today was Black Friday, indeed.

If the dollar carry trade ends up being unwound to any degree, what is it out there that has to be de levered to pay for it?

Everything.

 

Everything non-US currently relies on a short USD leg.

 

Once the USD effective borrowing cost [FX move, not yield] rises above the EM / Asia gains, it's GMTFO, and park it in friggin negative yield TBones.

 

Fun times :mellow:

 

Anyone noting the USD funded RE bubble in Hong Kong?

 

I'm in the EM / FX panic double dip crowd now.

 

Contagion :ninja:

Darling to admit recession is worse than he forecast

By Chris Giles, Economics Editor

 

Published: November 26 2009 23:05 | Last updated: November 26 2009 23:05

 

Alistair Darling will admit in next month’s pre-Budget report that the recession has been much deeper than he forecast in March, the Financial Times has learnt.

 

Really, Darling?

As long as we make bee line towards 560 next week, yes

 

I would says odds of that are pretty decent....

 

Mrs. Widget and I second the motion. Continued price decline will put Mr. Russell further along the path of bias shift below the 50 bar ma with a little divergence help pushing from above.

Happy, happy shoppers. Or is that hungry, hungry hippos?

 

http://money.cnn.com/2009/11/27/news/econo..._2009/index.htm

 

They are going to spin it as good news of the newly-recovered economy, as so many here have projected.

 

Sure, we can ignore that food bank lines are where the hungry, hungry hippos are really at.

 

"The line has grown so long that when you walk outside, it's overwhelming," said Jesse Taylor, senior director at the pantry. "A lot of people are coming out in suits, they're carrying brief cases." http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Food-banks-n...set=&ccode=
