Where is Dave Simmons ?? I thought he had great insights into general market activity. His comments on TIPS, TXO, TXF were very helpful.

I got caught with my shorts down with this rally over the last week, I still haven't fully covered. Unemployment in the US is at 4.9%, well below full employment. As an economist, I know this rate cannot be sustained without inflationary pressures. The Fed has to raise rates by 25 to 50 basis points. I think markets will tank somewhat in the next couple weeks, before the May 20 Fed meeting.

Porter, I consider BCE to be a bellweather stock. What specific signals do you look at, when determining your trading stance on any given day? Where do you see BCE three months out ?

Thanks

Jan
