You're right. Also if nobody took directional risk there would be no real price discovery, basically.

So just saw a nice little stop run on the CAC40. Odds are that this is the bottom for now, could see the uptrend continue from here. Big money definitely got long in the past 70 minutes (dunno about smart, usually futile exercise to care about which money is smart).

Well, as I said.

Not really. I guess the measure for that kind of thing is when you start being right whether the shit goes to levels it was at before you started your vision with perhaps an expiration date of about 7 years for something very long term.

Yes there are always loopholes but I don't see how this will lead to rampant inflation.

Banks like BOA are going to have to get their asset ratio up under Basel III, I wouldn't worry too much.

Yes I agree with that. Let's also not forget ridiculous FX volatility.

Yeah? <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/TG4f9zR5yzY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Uhm. You can't really have stagflation if you have margin squeeze especially if prices of real assets are declining. There really is (will be) no inflation unless Ben prints a lot more. All the printing being done now is really just compensating for whatever is lost in consumer BKs and what...

lol no. I did consider it for a second but the thought was put out of my mind rather quickly when the CAC40 did not manage to even break the DH (which was pretty much the open) and didn't break into the gap. I'm mostly pissed off I too passive to short the fucker at the point I posted this...

YOU LIED TO ME! Where is the fucking money train? All my money down the drain!!!

CAC40 (which I trade) is as we speak trying to break the first actually relevant resistance level. If it goes there the money train will keep rollin' otherwise it's a correction confirmation Edit: Rip or dip, rip or dip...makin' it exciting lol. Looking more like dip now. Here's a picture...

BTFD and enjoy the rip you noobs. I'm converted!

Well I would've guessed the market was going to demand some sort of risk premium for the shit going on in the ME but this is ridiculous.

The FED is not Zimbabwan and it's simply unfeasible to think that if the plans don't turn out to work they won't rather go for a debt restructuring than to keep doing what doesn't work.

Don't know. Tell me? As far as I was aware it was pretty unusual. By the way CL is really grinding it up now haha. This is so funny :D Like you said, probably the marketmakers grinding the weak shorts out of the market.

This silver rally is debt-fueled and once debt becomes more expensive silver goes back to $5. End of story.

He's gonna burn it all himself? I don't think that even the most loyal followers are going to turn their country into an even more backwater shithole like Yemen just cos some guy who will probably be executed if he doesn't flee quite soon says so.

:confused: CL is a global market and finds equilibrium between total demand and total supply, so who cares which parties trade with whom? If the total supply is reduced, price goes up. Mind you I don't disagree with the premise that it's going down. Today's bump was on barely any volume...

There are some very good causation arguments for the markets to be up in the third prezzie year. If you examine the statistics closely, you will also find that presidents who are not re-elected have a significantly worse performing third year stock market. It's a two way street (i.e. a low...
