jimsioi,

Interesting comments.

I'm leaning towards the small cut and <END?> of cuts being priced in. An SI buddy is convinced the next leg up is actually triggered by ECB and other equally famous central clowns starting to cut as the race for competitive devaluation starts to heat up. I"m not as sure, but it is possible. I hear about some of the major houses using currency traders to manage their pog trading and that screams volumes to me about what they will do if the dollar actually bucks the trend <g>

I wish I had more time to really understand the current exposure and remaining resources on the Feds balance sheet. My opinion is similar to what I think Vi has been saying, and that is when the Fed kitty has gone dry, printing may be the next POG trigger.

Tough week. I wish I had lightened up, but my trading this year has broken my long streak of good plays and very acceptable returns. The pile of house money has become much, much smaller, and my thinking regarding risk changes as the exposure to my pile draws near.

With that said, Freeport and Newmont had real nice days yesterday. PMPIX did well too. That is still a very nice monthly trade for me, even with the carnage. I'm inclined to let it run a bit longer, but I am going to close it at a profit so I'm watching it close.
