    Canada: 35.9k jobs created in April (expectation for -48.5K loss)

    "Driven by self-employment" I guess lots of people are turning into EBAY Power Sellers??? Prostitutes? In Calgary it's carnage right now. I don't know anyone becoming self employed, just lots of people becoming unemployed.

    Where are all the 'Peak Oil' theorists? This is not a sarcastic thread

    You sir are a fucking moron. Oil is NOT abiotic. The oil that goes into your car is a fossil fuel dumb ass. Stop reading conspiracy theories about Russian scientists. Russia does not produce any oil that was created in the mantle. Yes, it is true there is some evidence that...

    watching option chains to help trade stocks/indexes

    I think that the open interest is a pretty telling indicator. ie, if you look at a stock and the open interest in puts is large it means people are writing lots of puts on the stock because they believe it isn't going down. I'd say the same thing for calls, if suddenly there were lots of...

    Long Oil into Opec Meeting - Your take

    Maybe But, last time the USD was at these levels oil was trading at 55-60 dollars. That's when demand was less and supply was more. I don't trade directly in oil, just equities. Can someone provide the volume of contracts traded on oil futures? I was reading an article somewhere...

    I'm seeing major positive divergences

    Had we closed lower today this would have been a confirmation of a new bearish trend no? The higher volume would have definitely confirmed this. I'm curious what you guys think (technically speaking) about the intraday swing that for the last two days has brutally violated the sexy looking...

    Long Oil into Opec Meeting - Your take

    Do you guys see support around $62-67? If you look all the day back a year or so ago that Would you expect some sort of dead cat bounce off these levels or for oil to plow right through?

    **This is ridiculous**

    Word. Anyone who thinks NAFTA is screwing over the US has it backwards. Just like the US privatizes gains and socializes losses, it uses NAFTA to screw over Mexico and Canada and Protect itself. Spout the benefits of free trade as long as you are the beneficiary, break the rules you...

    SPY has broken all support - market crash imminent

    I was watching this triangle for a while. you can see it on the DOW as well. Whats interesting is that the S&P closed ABOVE 900. This is a major level. Also the volume has been going down as the indexes wedge out. If there was huge volume ont he breakout to the downside and we didn't...

    gold amd gold stocks

    My guess is that 1.) No one buys gold in a recession because they are broke. Gold price is supply and demand just like everything else. 2.) Central Banks and IMF have been selling gold to raise money. 3.) Strength of US dollar 4.) Hedge funds selling gold for redemptions

    **This is ridiculous**

    So if banks were still leveraged at 15:1 like the rules said when Clinton was in power you still think the 5% of defaulting loans would have caused this mess? So if the SEC hadn't made this market into a turkey shoot for short sellers and allowed a totally unregulated and naked derivatives...

    Economic forecast for the 6-12 months

    Relative strength of the US dollar vs other currencies will cause a flight from gold, lower oil prices, and most importantly make those imported goods that the US consumer lives on that much cheaper and easier to consume.
