Good job Fed!

Dollar is down another 7% in a month. Your 5% cd's in the bank are losing value. You had better leverage 2x your net worth to make that trade worthwhile.

Quote from scriabinop23:

Guys...

instead of bitching about the fed, trade it. economic indicators are too strong for another rate cut in the Oct 31 meeting. The ZQ futures are pricing in a 25bp rate cut for that meeting (in Nov07 futs). Sell the ZQ Nov. (do it against long Oct if you want a hedge for unusual events).

In a bad market recession

gold goes down
stocks goes down
real estate goes down
T-bill return rates goes down.
job market goes down.

Quote from kashirin:

Personal spending 0.6%
personal income 0.3%

People are confident Fed will bail out and continue to spend despite of all foreclosures!
0.6% up, expected 0.4% and it's even before rate cut

Oil 100 by the new year.
American dollar worth 0.995 canadian
Euro 1.42, by the year end 1.5 or higher

Market at all time high so another cut for
50 bp in the cards

And no_inflation!

Bernanke is a genius

This has to be tied for the dumbest statement posted in the History of ET.
 
Gold & oil ripped in the Seventies.
The job market wasn't nearly as bad as remembered, either. In the allegedly awful Carter debacle, 10 million net new jobs came on stream during his term. That era was the minicomputer era, when the Route 28 corridor around Boston had all kinds of companies that were at the cutting edge of the time: DEC, Prime, Wang, etc.
Don't believe all this bilge you see around here about the US going down, or about old Northeastern cities declining. Won't happen.
Pay attention to the markets: there will always be money to be made, somewhere.
Right now, gold & oil are ripping. Plus ca change, and all that.
 
Who is the misinformed person that said Europe has free healthcare ??Healthcare is not free in Europe!!..... people over there pay for their health insurance out there ass in taxes!! Why do you think that avg price for a liter of gas over there is over $4 ? They even pay a tax for getting local TV channels in many European countries!..I have many friends in Europe(and I have lived in Italy, France, Holland, and Switzerland so I know the deal there). ...some have had to wait almost 2 months for a visit to the doctor! ..thats the kind of free healthcare we want here in the U.S.?? NOT !! The sky high taxes you pay in Europe are what PAYS FOR YOUR HEALTHCARE !!.. . Nothing is free in life..NOTHING
