Anyone see the Zerohedge snip that UK home prices have reached an ALL time high? Wtf? Having a chance to sell into that in the US would be a rare treat.

Shrug....Seems like that to me. I know nothing, but everone seems to beleive that payments due will he paid on time. There is no limit to the amount of money availale. Maybe this political wrangling will be the new normal and the world now has no choice but to adapt and not panic. I cant...

Sincere answer. Yes i do. That may or may not be the reason i am a failed trader". Now, understand, i am not a trader and do invest in 401k's at work, but....... I do put a ton of time into a wide range of issues regarding the economy, currencies, commodities, stocks and a fair ammount of...

Bush gave out 2 stimulus checks long ago to everyone. I think it was to go out and buy that new Plasma TV. Or, was it to stimulate or love your ob-gyn. I dont remember. Not partisan here, just sayin. I just want to go back to the 1950's when smokimg and drinking were just fine, sound...

I didnt see Jems post and i agree with his version. I read on ZH that CDS for The US is rising to what is an implied chance of 6% for a default. Everyone "knows" but still must burn money for protection. Thats gotta piss a lot of people off.

There s a lot of talk of a large basis point incease in 30 day us t bills due on OCt 24th. I think the yeild curve of the 30 day to 3 month t bill is inverted. A steepener trade on the default solution as the 30 day yeild collapses might be a way some can play it.

Republican congressman Nunez , CA. was on CNN for 30 minutes. The panel could barely contain themselves with glee as he singled out the 18 conspirators (his words) in his party without an end game. If feel as if i am watching the self immolation of the republican party. My take-away is a...

Looks like t -10 minutes and its a non event to the markets. Fully discounted....Next.. Onto the debt ceiling.

We have a long.....way to go. We have not yet begun to tax, default on unfunded liabilities and confiscate. We are just dickering and jousting and still in MORE mode for both ends of the spectrum.
