Mish: I Finally Got a Taxable Account so That I Can Trade Options and Futures. (I went with Interactive Brokers). It's going to be some time yet before I complete my "self-education, and bite off some futures contracts. I actually took my eye off gold this week. My lens is filled with BOJ activity as their Fiscal Year comes to a close. JWCB remarked that traditional fiscal year end BOJ activity in the USD/YEN typically quiets down right around this time--not waiting for 31 MAR. But I note that all the TA guys and smart observers agree the dollar strength has got more to go--presumeably right past 31 MAR 2004. Very hard for me to see betting against them. Agreed. That said, I agree with the foul-mouthed LA Hedgie who says after the dollar bears get wiped out, the dollar will wipe out the bulls later this year/Summer. Lots of great stuff in Barrons on bonds today. I have my eye on the iShare TLT. Cheers, LP

US$ resumes downward course AS SOON AS ECB cuts rates as with the Fed, talk is more powerful than action they can talk and talk repeatedly, with no change in rates when they cut, they use ammunition which can not be used again then comes the powerful USDollar decline resumption you have been talking about an ECB cut for two months while I respect the call, soon they either fish or cut bait soon the call for a cut will lose its credibility by then, the DXY will be at its next moving average trending down hard / jim
