Major breakout in the pound vs the dollar.
they dodged another bullet,sort of a chess game where the banks king is getting hemmed inQuote from Maverick74:
Pro bailout party looks like it's going to win this. Euro popping and dollar selling off here. I would be very cautious on any pop we get in the market tonight and tomorrow. I was telling Shan in the office on Friday that I have a somewhat contrarian view on how this could play out. I think the most bullish thing for risk assets is a hard selloff first forcing the liquidation of bad positions. Then a strong rally. If the opposite happens I think it will be very difficult sustaining a rally. That's just my opinion.

I'm not sure anything got resolved tonight. It puts the Fed in a bad position now as well because if we hold here then they have to tone it down this week as not to scare the market.
Quote from Quon:
Just to add...
Seems like bonds can't break that monthly A down. They're actually well off the lows that they made it to earlier in the session. I'm seeing a reversal type set-up on the daily that suggests that if we get any selling on the open in the indicies, we could see the OR or the monthly A up in bonds in days.
We'll see, but to be sure, bonds don't look as bad as they did when the session began.
