My contacts are in banking. A third or more are getting pink stuff in places. That despite public perception that they are awash with cash. No clients, what I hear. I guess if you short 'em, business is booming! -g- I mentioned before the symbiotic relationship. As they go, so do we. -ng- A quant getting let go could screw up a little due to stirred up emotions, add a zero to 1,000,000,000,000,000 amount by mistake. There are too many zeroes in that number anyhow -vbg- That said, "buy 1120, GB set the price" is still working, for now. I would prepare for an air pocket below, just in case. -g- SHTF has a feedback mechanism, it cannot be stopped until it happens. You just can't bail out countries -g/ng- finance.yahoo.com

Everyone watch your trades closely today! Multiple outlets are reporting radically different index values at precisely the same second. Something weird is going on again. Has anyone else noticed this? -ng- I notice things like this because I always check multiple price sources before I execute a trade. Usually, everything is synchronized, but today... something is foul on Wall Street, and I am withholding my trades until this is resolved. -ng-

WS eating each other up, that much is true. However, the problem is that WS ate the government. Now the population is broke, the corporations are broke, WS is broke, and the government is broke. Every group is blaming each other for stealing their money. The consequence of bursting asset/credit bubble duopoly and kicking the can until it blows up, the black hole too big to fill. What we call SHTF. They need to print to create an illusion of prosperity. If they don't, depression. If they do, inflation. Fckd, that is all. They faithfully did print. The minute they stop, the black hole consumes us because the can was kicked much further. The moment has arrived because the governments are broke, for now in Europe, but don't have high hopes for the US! -ng- The markets have to be based on the economy, not the other way around! We managed it the other way around for two decades, now we have to pay the price. This is our real economy as a result of mis-management. As you can see in the picture, the output is not great. Can you create something out of nothing? More dollars out of the printing press? Will it change anything? Build more stores to sell what? To who? If we print more, things will just cost more, the picture below will not change quickly. -ng- Message 27675273
