    This One Thing Is Making Your Life More Expensive

    It is no surprise that Bill Clinton's Labor Secretary thinks cutting jobs is bad, but the fact is, without cost cuts and revenue increases many of those companies would be dead. As explained in the intro, PE firms acquire loss making companies and make them profitable. The rest of the video is...

    Can Forex ever be a job?

    It's not just this one. All the trading forums are dead.

    How can I improve my trading?

    Stop think of yourself as a trader. You are an investor with a very short term focus. Contrary to what you might read on internet forums like this, "trader" is not an actual job. A trade is an exchange of value. It happens only at the exact moment when you click the buy or sell button and get...

    Dedollarization Accelerating

    The net net is $6.5 trillion in global dollar reserves, in a $101 trillion global economy. I don't understand what you think will happen. Were talking about settlement bro! What is settlement? It is a holding period. It's like T+3 in the stock market. There is no actual impact to Walmart if...

    How do you fundamentally analyze the market?

    I can draw lines on charts too. You conveniently left out the resistance at 21:30, 1:00, 9:15, and support at 22:45, 21:30, 2:30, and 8:15, which didn't provide either, and would have left you with losses had you traded based on them. Now you have some lines. Cool. I have the advantage of...

    How do you fundamentally analyze the market?

    You mean paid. What people PAID for it in the past, which doesn't matter at all because it tells you nothing about what people will pay for it in the future.

    How do you fundamentally analyze the market?

    Your argument was that price includes all information, including fraud. I pointed out in black and white that it does not show fraud. And you are cherry picking technical factors to support your arguments. Yeah support broke, but you wouldn't have even been looking at the asset. You'd be...

    Serious qn - What's stopping USDJPY trading to 170 or 200?

    Japanese inflation is running >3%. A further slide in the Yen will drive that even higher. After nearly three decades of deflation there are a ton of zombie companies with mountains of debt. Yield curve control is the only thing keeping them alive. Higher inflation from a weaker currency will...

    How do you fundamentally analyze the market?

    Well, I was there, following markets for all of them. By all accounts Enron started cooking the books in 1996. From 1996 to 1999 the stock did nothing but go up. In March of 2000 the NASDAQ hit a peak and the dotcom bubble started to burst. At that point the whole market started dropping. BUT...

    Serious qn - What's stopping USDJPY trading to 170 or 200?

    I assume you meant QE, but whatever... The difference is, 150 is the line in the sand that they drew. Nobody here does fundamental analysis, so it probably looks like just another big figure to you, but it is not. There are macro factors inside Japan that the BOJ has to consider when making...

    How do you fundamentally analyze the market?

    Bullshit. The only reason you need fast updates is so you can justify day trading. The fact is, fundamentals exert their influence on price for extended periods of time. They don't need to change for you to profit. Fundamental analysis would have told you Apple was a good bet in 2016, 2017...

    Dedollarization Accelerating

    Most rare earth come from China and China uses the Yuan, so nothing changes. According to the IMF Data global US dollar reserves total $6.5 trillion and have risen in nominal terms over the past 12 months. The US treasury market is $33 trillion. The FOMC has ~$5 trillion in the system open...

    Why does this matter? What is it you think will happen?

    Serious qn - What's stopping USDJPY trading to 170 or 200?

    The BOE wasn't doing infinite quantitative easing. The BOJ is. So yeah, they can.

    How do you fundamentally analyze the market?

    IMO people who only focus on technical analysis are degenerate gamblers plowing money into a slot machine at the casino. What you're saying is, small traders shouldn't bother doing good analysis because they are small. That has to be one the dumbest things I've ever heard. Why does the scale of...
