Charting the Crash

BTW

The Yen is flying.

The carry trade [unwinding] must be contributing a lot to this.
 
If that is the case, this will develop into far more than a one day event or May correction. This could trigger a bear market and recession.

If you're talking about the Asian crisis, Russian default, or LTCM, this is potentially far more serious.

The amount of money runs into many Trillions of dollars based on counterparty trades on CDO's

If this blows up, you have a recession at best.

Well while there will be blood in the streets this will be a chance for some great buy opportunities.Big falls always bounce.

This will be different??
 
Contrarian wise too many think this is just an abberation which tends to make me believe a deeper correction could be happening.

Funny trading in gold tonight, dropped rallied then sold off after normal trading ceased.
Makes me suspicious.

Gold @ $650+ is purely speculative pricing.
Speculators will stab you in the back and go short as soon as look long.
If the money is running, Gold will fall prey same as any speccy.

Inflationary pricing for Gold + global risk = $300 to $350

Agree,

The interplay between equities, gold, yen and bonds looks serious.

Bonds have had a bolter of a day too... flight to safety.

I wouldn't be surprised if the cavalry does some tinkering over the next few days, but the big money is shifting.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Crashy,

Don't be so pious. I will draw your to the first post in this thread so you can see where you can stick your perspective.
 
Despite all the hype China makes up 9/10th of F all of the world's economy.

If China vanished overnight we'd lose a few export dollars from resources, but in the scheme of the Global economy the state of California is currently more important than China.

Ahh, they are the world's biggest importer of copper and second biggest in oil

Their stock market is a nothing - but their demand is our future.
 
Perhapes we are will see huge drops in all these speculative companies than are hugely overpriced simply because they have some good dirt with a couple holes drilled.

What is everyones opinion on the sell off that will take place today, Will you sell most of your holdings or just the speccies. Do you think we will see back to back drops on the markets for consecutive days
 
I will drop 10% but will do selling of non gold in a few days and buying more gold stocks in a few days.

Great stuff Mag, you are the only guy on this forum who called a potential price and time high.

Starting to feel good about getting set up in a short position yesterday.
Too early to tell yet, but ot could be that the bears have come out of hibernation and those bulls might get their horns chopped!!

Is this looking toppy and ready for a bit of a breather? :eek:

Top of a wave 5 perhaps?

If we get a 10% correction this would bring it back to the 5400 level, where there is some support also.

Looking for some good shorts here, or perhaps the spi.
