4. China

drop , sorry

fwiw

an experienced, well placed broker friend called me last night drunk - (he only drinks when stressed)
telling me the shit is coming and it's going to be the biggest drop in years.

everything implodes

it won't drop too much, if it starts dropping, they'll just fire up QE3...

it will be summer when QE2 ends and then we all go on a long vacation

Rule number one - always take your advice from drunk people. They are the height of wisdom.

Hopefully the dollar will go up! :pimp

Let the artificial growth continue. I can't tell who's dumber in this regard, Obama or Bernanke.

Why is the QE2 ending? Are they putting her in dry dock for the summer?

that ship isnt old enough to be retired yet and why would it have such a big impact on the stock market?

2 months ago: The Bernake: "the end of qe2 will not cause bonds to go down... blablah... continuity..."

2 months ago: Paul Kruggman: "the end of qe2 will not cause bonds to go down... blablah... continuity..."

now: The Bernake: "we'll need to start a 3rd round of qe when qe2 ends or bonds will go down."


Interventionists admitting they are wrong and at the same time want to continue doing those things that caused the problems.... *sigh*

I don't disagree but where did you see him saying that?

I think Prince Charles is still next in line to the throne?

thats why I said... "FWIW"

im hiding cash under my mattress

Shit I had no ideas. I'll go straight to the club and get a couple of bottles, when back I'll share the real deal with you :winkwink:

Why haven't bonds dropped in advance of QE2 ending? 30 year is up another point today.

Bonds and notes have been rallying since February and they are almost at record low yields.

She is facing an uncertain future....

You can never tell with this market but my SPY July 134 PUTS are looking real good right now.

of course bonds have been rallying, the Fed has been printing money to buy them...
