Imminent and severe market correction

Still.....allot of bids there....why?

COz

Strange priced action immediately following the Wall St open with USD/JPY recovering from levels around 92.00 to 92.75 and the talk in the market is that the BoJ might have helped massage the Dollar higher. ;)

more profit warnings from European companies (DSM and TNT) with more expected, specifically from Deutsche Post.
the US is expected to cut rates on Wednesday 50bp to 1%.
In the UK, Alistair Darling is getting flak from economists for trying to spend his way out of the recession. Hedge funds are also in the news with more funds stopping outflows, most noticeably RAB Capital which was reported over the weekend.
A Kaupthing samurai failed to make payment after its seven day grace
period. Kaupthing"s Samurai bonds are around 5% of their value on the secondary market which some see as a somewhat high number given the low probability of recovery in the currently difficult conditions for Iceland. Kaupthing has JPY78bn outstanding Samurai paper.

Rumours are Citigroup are going to be involved in some sort of deal.

Looking at the options, a lot of interest coming onto the market between the 17.5-20 strikes. So would expect something higher than that to be the price offered, or equivalent...
 
The grizzly Bears are off and running....

Fed has now opened Mega Billion dollar credit swaps with many central banks all over the planet, thus spreading US risk to everyone. http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aUNPTGKAY_bQ&refer=home

US citizens rejoice! The rest of the world will save you by feeding capital in through these numerous, wide open "$wap windows" to cover your debt$.

Oh, of course the Fed will be sure to help out a fellow credit swapper in the reverse direction too.... if and when it so suits them. :)

Ahhhh! I see blue skies ahead.....

Time for lift-off!

Gee. Awful quiet around here (the entrance to the Bear Cave).

Looks like the Fed's brilliantly executed Cash Tsunami has washed 'em all awaaaaay with an imminent and severe market rise? Consider the great news...

- US heading for "moderate to deep recession" for years sends share markets sharply higher.
- 100,000's more US jobs heading for the scrapheap sends share markets sharply higher.
- US Fed in debt up to and increasingly past it's eyeballs sends share markets sharply higher.

It looks all good to me!

BUY, [size=+1]BUY[/size], [size=+2]BUY[/size]

Yeah I have a similar take on it. Its funny how the article frames it as though its an act of generosity by the US govt to be doing these swaps with these countries - while to me it just looks like the US attempting to palm off its overprinted crud to as many corners of the world as it can in exchange for the productivity of other countries (effectively what a countries currency represents). But I'd be interested in hearing other viewpoints.
 
All I can say is the US housing bubble emerged from 1% interest rates.

They will keep them at 1%, artificially re-inflate the housing market and then hopefully avoid the sub-prime mess by not securitising mortgages backed by artificial house prices.

Is Pavlov in the house? :rolleyes:
