I was just reviewing some charts and I'm thinking the dollar may have bottomed vs the euro while bonds have topped out. I'm wondering if the forex and debt markets are forecasting a better than expected employment number on Friday. Of course, my entire premise could be hooey. :D

Okay, thanks, griffins.

Thanks for sharing the results of your vigorous research with us. Start using capitals correctly and show a basic grasp of sentence structure and I'll really be impressed, Einstein. My 'net research has shown that left-wing Brits are the most stunningly arrogant bunch of myopic windbags on...

That's more like it.

These threads are a hell of a lot more interesting when people give some reasons why they're going long or short.

Jesus, what a monumental cunt. Go back to the Guardian chat boards.

LOL, now don't you start! What are you seeing that makes you think this is a top? I thought today would be a down day but, obviously, I was wrong. I'm waiting to see shooting star candlesticks in the major indices. Not that that is the be-all, end-all of signals but it's pretty good for...

"fema camp" LOL :D If it were up to your doctor, you'd still be taking your meds.

Great clip of an awesome human being. Thanks for posting that. We need more people like her in America, Europe and Asia, too. There are too many people like makloda who don't have the slightest clue.

"Germany - Iran's #1 supplier" http://medienkritik.typepad.com/blog/2006/11/germany_and_now.html Oh, the irony when the missiles start impacting. :D

"Western Civilization" - ha-ha-ha-ha!!! Don't kid yourself. Capitulation to Islamic extremists is a done deal. Done their way. Phony pop-culture leftism rules in Europe and the US. People just want to watch the telly in their Che Guevara t-shirts. Or put on their Che sweatshirt to go...

That's all the bears have been doing for the last four months. :D Just kidding, selloffs can be great for making big bucks in a hurry.

When? On 11/27/2007?

Monday - the same day as the selloff - was the last day that would give you a settlement date of November for stocks. Many mutual funds were raising cash for their mandatory year-end distributions. I agree that the market is vulnerable here but I have doubts that 12/1 is a key bearish...

IMHO, we hit a short-term low on the dollar today. I'm basing that on my own indicators and on some of the moaning that's starting to come out of Europe. Also, the Japanese and European Feds aren't going to keep cranking rates up without considering the currency implications.

Dewd...You were right; I was wrong. Hats off to ya. I guess today was a combo of "buy the rumor, sell the news" on the retail data, the dollar getting hit and maybe some political concerns as well. The Walmart thing in particular threw me. They'd already warned on sales so I didn't...

If Bernanke talks hawkish, we have upward pressure on rates and stocks get hit. If Bernanke talks dovish, the dollar gets hit some more and so do stocks. Same idea with the data coming out. Looks like a lose/lose scenario. I'm just trying to surf the market in the right direction but we...

nikkei +71 :D
