The main question is does Hamas have the guts to attack US and I think the answer is yes. Now that their leader is gone they have a lot of momentum on their side and a lot of sympathy from the Arab world. He was wheel chair bound and an elderly man... and on his way to the mosque for daily...

Just read a press wire saying that Hamas is blaming US.. and vows to attack US as well.. they are saying that US gave Israel the green light. They warn to potentially kill houndreds of Israelis and US targets are now an option. " Hamas says U.S. approved Yassin assassination, calls for...

Its a very good question.. but I believe the bond market has other factors affecting it simply besides discouting inflation. A major concern keeping prices high is the cary over trade. I read an economicst report recently and he simply states the bond market is not the ultimate discounter of...

Yea it is obvious. My analysis is pretty simple nothing ground breaking. I just think the negatives outweight the positives.. and I dont think this bull will climb a wall of worry... because the fundementals behind the economy are a smoke screen.

It will take some time for the high prices to pinch pockets. Its a gradual process.... just like it takes time for the fed to prop up the economy. Most believe gas prices are gonna go back down like it always does.

Another point... look at the price of OIL. Slowly it will start taking a toll on the US consumer. --MIKE

Dont forget to factor in the carry over trade. Also.. I bet the bond market is topping out.. I am actually selling bonds right here for a long term trade.

I dont want to get into a whole debate right now.. but here are the underlying fudemental issues that are making me bearish. 1. Terrorism 2. Inflation ( look at the CRB index) I dont believe the Labor dept uses an accurate method of inflation. 3. Horrible job growth/outsourcing 4. Poor...

I believe... terrorism, inflation worries, poor jobs... is going to weight down the market. The fiscal stimilus is over.. and now we are going to see the after effect which is going to be horrible. --MIKE

Why dont you give your factoids a rest. Just keep on loading up on those SMH's. We all know u are bullish on the market.. and the sad thing is that we have put in a major top.... and we are about to make a huge move lower. --MIKE

How about 6 million jews dissapearing? Wait.. that actually happened under another terrorist named Hitler.. who was far more smarter and sophisticated than todays terrorirsts. Guess what happened next... the Jewish people came back stronger than ever. --MIKE

According to your logic.. then what is the point of killing Bin Laden? --MIKE

The latest intifadah started after sharon went to temple mount.. before that.. there was a long period of silence/peace.

Well... he is the official leader of Hamas. They are upping the stakes. This is the most significant strike since the whole thing started in 2000. --MIKE

Wires are reporting Yassin was killed by Israel in their latest strike... Huge bold move by Israel. Looks like Hamas will be sending bombers over to israel for passover...to retaliate.

Looks like it was just a bad price quote. I am running their demo game version and I just read that the real money version didnt have that spike. So nevermind then. Makes sense now. --MIKE

Something was probably screwed up with OANDA. The second the spot EUR opened up at noon.. the OANDA price just collapsed and traded identical to the spot. I guess there was some type of premium for the EUR when the spot market was closed. I dont get it. --MIKE

Yea.. but its wierd how the price spiked up exactly at 4:05pm around 60pips then it continued to go up higher until 4:25pm where the price leveled off. Thats a 100+ pip move in 20min .. very wierd. There must have been some type of news that came out during that time period, as opposed to the...

10 PIP spread. I checked all the news feeds and I couldnt find anything that happened during the price spike. Interesting.

I opened a demo account with saxo and they gave me those news feeds for free. I like MNI.. very usefull when they have bulletins regarding the USD/EURO and when they give u a reminder of key economic events.. but AFX is not so great. AFX has more of a story behind everything but nothing is...
