    Anvil problems this morning?

    One question. Do you trade "remotely" from home or in an office made for trading? My experience has been that "remote" traders usually have a much larger knowledge base to work from when it comes to sorting out "latency" and platform issues. For example, ask someone that trades out of...

    Bernanke set to lower interest rates again even amid signs of inflation

    This is what I have been saying all along . . . From the article earlier posted: "Now for extra credit, how much did Citibank pay for their last round of "hard money" to apply to their Tier Capital? That'd be a double-digit coupon from Abu Dhabi, right? So yes, the TAF is cheaper. A...

    Bernanke set to lower interest rates again even amid signs of inflation

    Until people actually start to lose their jobs ( or they see their "neighbor" lose theirs ) the guys that you see frequenting your local sports bar on the weekends will continue to pay for $3.50 Coors Light and gas at $3.60 per gallon. You are correct. They have no clue.

    Look what you did to real estate? Doing the same to market

    This has been my suggestion ( and contention ) for years now. The only real Forum of VALUE on ET is the Hardware and Software Forums . . . Everything else has turned to "dog-crap" because Baron chose to keep this a free site. You get what you pay for. And here at ET, you get very little...

    Bernanke set to lower interest rates again even amid signs of inflation

    The jury is still out. Otherwise, 2-year yields would not be where they are, nor would the TIPS be where they are.

    Shanghai expansion going insane

    Shanghai is the world's 8th largest City. The "metro" population is around 18.6 million people as of 2006, within 2,717 square miles. Add in another 13.4 million for "urban" population over another 2,000 square miles. Compare that to the "metro" area of NYC which obviously contains all of...

    Bernanke set to lower interest rates again even amid signs of inflation

    I disagree. I think that the markets already understand the position that the FED is in, and have had this understanding for awhile now. It's gonna be a painful process; no doubt about it. But there really are no other "options" for the FED to pursue at this point in order to clean up...

    Bernanke set to lower interest rates again even amid signs of inflation

    Agreed 100% For some reason, most of the posters on ET bagging on Bernanke and his attempt to pump some liquidity into the banking system just don't get it. These people really have no clue as to the MAGNITUDE of what is going on here . . .

    CNBC anchors giving market predictions.

    Yep. CNBC has become the "Peope" magazine of business television. It's been that way for quite some time . . . The final "nail in the coffin"was Ron Insana leaving to head up his own Fund of Funds.

    Major rally lies ahead

    I know that there aren't many technical traders here, but the SPX is showing clear signs of a "measured-move" configuration that projects 1442 as a minimum, with fib ratio extensions of 1490 and 1520 targets. A close above 1396.02 will confirm the targets above.

    Fed's Kohn on Crack. See's Inflation Moderating

    You could use a course in "Reading Comprehension". I never said that commodities haven't been rallying strongly since August. And I certainly have never asserted that the markets are WRONG. If you believe in the INFLATIONARY case then go ahead ( as Makloda and I have suggested ) and put...

    Fed's Kohn on Crack. See's Inflation Moderating

    That's just it. These guys that just keep repeating the same old Mantra refuse to even look at what the bond market is saying. As for my market calls on ET, they have been pretty well documented BEFORE the fact: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=101689&highlight=SPX...
