why do people make a big deal about 2% anyway? I've seen floating currencies fluctuate that much in one day several times and there were not radical changes afterwards. A 2% drop in CDU5 gives us about 8050- that simply puts it at the midpoint of the last 2 month rally. EC has fallen over 10%...

yes good call, I was actually thinking it was sort of time to bail on my 'long' (my S&P index retirement fund) and I pushed the button about noon on Thursday. Unfortunately for me I got the closing Friday price due to fund rules- DAMMIT! Makes it really tough to do market timing. I'm now...

last i heard, gawhar is pumping a lot of water. I think the saudi oil fields are at or near their peak

the WHO stats wash out a lot of factors that should be normalized out. For instance if you compare similar populations like minnesota and canada/sweden, then the life expectency is identical within statistical error. Infant mortality rates do not normalize to factors like percentages of crack...

"The concept of medical progress means saving lives and health of people who could not be saved just a dozen years ago. Of course keeping people like Terri Shiavo on life support for years is an absurd waste of financial resources but it has nothing to do with Univeral Healthcare." congrats...

"Free markets are obsessed with profits and only profits. Healthcare exists for sick people, there are no profits in sick people, there may be profits in healthy people but as soon as they get sick the profits are all gone. Free markets therefore will not solve this problem in the future, much...

southamerica forgets that while it may not cost companies directly, it will cost everyone indirectly via higher taxes, including companies. is he arguing that european companies are more competitive?... even as germany is discussing cutting back uncompetitive worker benefits?

Ripley, please keep trying to trade, I'm thinking that shorting you is a can't miss....

oh please, people always go too far with this oil crap. The uzbek bases were only after 9/11 to get to afghanistan, everybody wanted Afghanistan.

well wether you favor the war or not, a fiscal reality check is in order. The unfunded mandates for SSI and medicare run about $27 trillion at latest estimates. The war in Iraq alone (afghanistan would have been in the cards with everyone except Nader) will be about $250 billion when all is said...

ok then for now I am going to bring in my own expert to hurl questions at: http://www.woodingtrading.com/fibonacciretracement.html Now here's where it gets good. Take the current number and divide by the next number. 21/34 = 0.6176 or 34/55 = 0.6182 or 144/233 = 0.6180...

Fibonacci is everywhere! Black Man's Schlong = 1 White Man's Schlong = 0.618 Chinese Man's Schlong = 0.382 Please use 10 (inches) as the multiplier. ozzy so is the lesson here that I should date chinese women and they would be most impressed? and no, I don't want to see your data.

The so called 'Golden Ratio/Rectangle/Measure/etc' isn't a number series, neither is the Fibonacci Price Levels tool a number series calculator. wallace, I didn't say that, i said it was a limiting value of the ratio of two numbers in the series. The fibo tool calculates and displays...

Lol, so what's your point again? Fib numbers work well for me. That's all I need to know and that's all I care about. yup that seems to be the consensus here, many claims it 'works' and that's it without any explaination. Big deal, if that's all you need to know then what's your point by...

What are you trying to accomplish? some of you need to take a course in reading comprehension, i have stated it at least twice. You asked 'what use are fibonacci numbers in the market'....a few folks responded w/ something to the effect they use them as part of their strategy. What else...
