MrHanky Posted February 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Today's objective was pretty clear....... Ramp treasuries until the bond market closes,then bring in the big guns.They got stocks and bonds out near the highs which is the main mission.

swordfish Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 FROM IDS Hey Swordfish, which euro banksters, w/US ADR's, are most vulnerable to the great european deleveraging? tia dunno. Regarding europe is brewing everywhere. I say everywhere you look its BANG. read all.... hungary: Hungary’s Looming ‘Double-Dip’ Recession May Constrain Fidesz http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=new...id=am5l.mMmKJNY Hungarian Industrial Output Unexpectedly Declines (Update1) http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=new...id=aEJ7ZC82vGIg Ukraine - there could be a small war- really....

One of the reason - moody or sp upgrade their outlook, but others (fitch?) didnt. the same for Romania (moody or other) upgraded their outlook and said some of them are ready for euro in 2011-2012 (your euro peg right know....). So some peopel are saying that this great cost cutting helped and peg will be stable..... Polish market (wig20 blue chips) and PLN crosses - well, Poland was the only country which didnt get GDP on minus during the crisis (1,7% for all 2009?). But its all sh*t which media is buying.... the deficit and other debt are going bigger and bigger and were hidden in other companies (like we have a public companies which place new debt (bonds) in order to build roads, has Poland guarenties, but is not counted in public debt) so we have HUGE creativity here. More over we are using (as gov.) euro which we get from EU for structural projects for years 2011-2013 to HELP STRENGTHEN the PLN!!!! so polish gov is intervining here. total bullshit. Hovewer, all JPM, GS BoA love that crap and are all saying that polish PLN will be the best performer of 2010 in whole EM. total bullshit for me. Germany start to fall right know... German Production Unexpectedly Declined in December (Update1) http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=new...id=addrty6o2WwQ I dont have link to news (dont have time) that min.fin from germany said that we are starting stagnation here (germany). ok I have it: German Economy Probably Stagnated in Fourth Quarter http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=206...id=aHLEfKYWgKh0 Q4 GDP to be reported at this friday (12 JAN 2010). But dont care about it because production is falling, only business sentiment (lfo info) is good... and polish market? we just stopped at 38,2 fibo. look at this beauty: http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/4523/42087248.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trader Joe Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Thanks Coop! Right, there are pros and cons. But posting a link at the end of the thread every day is a pain in the ass. Maybe a good compromise would be to have two, two, two threads per day and keep them both on the one forum in one list. One for daytime in Mahwah, and one for daytime in Bora Bora, and one for daytime in Warsaw. That way each of the major world financial capitals would be featured. One board One list Delineated via time of day [1] Premarket US [2] US Market [3] After Hours _______________________ Nah....fark that _______________________ One board One list Two forums [1] Pre US Market + Regular US Market [2] Post Market _______________________ Nah....fark that _______________________ One board One list One daily forum for weekdays One forum for weekends _______________________ Nah....fark that _______________________ Staring to see your dilemma.....bottom line, simplification of the site would be a good thing....I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drano Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Hey Drano, 'D you get snow today in Twinkie Land ??? Where I am in Iowa, not so much not too bad. And it's above zero so it feels balmy here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooper77 Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Any of you d-bags follow Bill Cara over at Cara's Community? He seems to be one of the more knowledgeable and level-headed traders out there, almost like a combo of Doc and KWave. Cara Community Thoughts?

Drano Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 You guys are forgetting the time zone problem. I like being able to read the relaxed off-topic stuff in M2M, and then flipping over to the IDS page that Aussiebear has already started, that pretty much stays focused on market information, instead of being diluted by having a post with world market action in between stupid cat pictures.

Grand Poopercycle Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 What was that Gran Poopercycle said yestidy ??? Oh Yeah ... Thanks! I'll be here nightly through the weekend! Tip your stoolserver! Actually the payroll # wasn't too weak, though still negative, and the B/D fluff was actually a pretty big minus(476K) but the big laugher-not on a curve- was the claim that 42,000 new retail jobs came to be. January, of course, always sees a lot of retail job losses, especially seasonal, so the seasonal adjustment factor always jams a bunch of jobs back in; Doc has discussed-ranted on- the seasonal adjustment stuff multiple times before. This year, seasonal hiring was so skimpy the subsequent # of cuts post-holiday was relatively light, so the seasonal add back led to a substantial net rise in the final outpoot.

Grand Poopercycle Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Doc, I have been lurking for almost two years and just signed-up for the full WSE. The insight and trading knowledge on this board is remarkable. I'm not a trader but work in corporate finance in the luxury retail sector and love the daily market commentary. Keep up the great work! I think the one thread per day format would work well. Best, cooper77 Can you get me some great deals on Brioni and Kiton stuff? Maybe fell off the truck?
