Brexit Will Be Delayed Until Next Year ‘Even If Deal Is Reached Tonight’

This is an interesting bit of history being written here. EU: You will do what this central government says! UK: You are not our central government! We are outta here! EU: It will hurt you economically! UK: Well, crap! Give us a deal! EU: Heheheh, ...

Brexit Will Be Delayed Until Next Year ‘Even If Deal Is Reached Tonight’

Interesting watching the posts that come along over the years in reaction to the news. Tracking pure chart trader's posts I can see the 50/50 even distribution of win/loss. One day they celebrate the next they cry always blaming the news. Sadly they ...

Well, that isn't good.

Korea's Top Hedge Fund Freezes $710 Million As Investors Try to Withdraw

Well, they might not be calling it QE. But that kind of expansion of the FED's balance sheet calls for some serious dollar weakness... I will be watching all dollar pairs for the best discount prices to sell off. I am thinking USD/CAD and AUD/USD to ...

Is Fed’s Bill-Buying Spree QE? Does It Matter?

No need for forgiveness. You are right they are both monetary policy tools, but they have different targets. As I said lower interest rates target institutional lending. Which doesn't affect the overall value of the dollar as strongly as QE which is ...

Minutes of the Federal Open Market Committee September 17–18, 2019

Lower rates are expansionary for 'large' borrowers(corporations/banks). QE is monetarily expansionary. Two different results from a USD standpoint: Lower rates encourage asset purchases/asset price inflation. QE weakens the dollar's total purchasing ...

Minutes of the Federal Open Market Committee September 17–18, 2019

Rising US oil inventories do not necessarily mean a there is a global drop in demand for crude oil. Oil production in the US is fairly flexible. This increase could simply have been in response to Saudi Arabia coming fully back online and the US ...

China Is Open To Partial US Trade Deal Despite Tech Blacklist

If you look on the Weekly chart of USD/CAD we are in the middle of a big consolidation zone... It wouldn't be a bad idea to buy/sell the bottom/top of that formation.

China Is Open To Partial US Trade Deal Despite Tech Blacklist

Listen there is no need for panic. The measure he is laying out will not crash a market or anything like it. Any wobbles in the market at this release are manipulations for markets that already have planned trajectories. This is not a QE either. ...

Powell Says Fed Contemplating Purchases Of T-Bills, Won't Be QE

You can't take this as QE is coming. All he is saying is, 'we will do whatever it takes'. I will be looking for prices where the FED would step in and take control. Those prices are apparently not now but not far off.

Fed's Powell says there is no reason why expansion can't continue

Cool man, we are on the same page. The Federal Government gives all kinds of research grants to universities. They fight hard to win those dollars and these kinds of things make it more difficult for a university to gain those grants in the future. ...

Philly professor spent nearly $200K in Fed research funds at strip clubs

That is not what he did... He took the money away from electrical engineering research to pleasure himself. Theft is theft no matter what the money goes toward after it is stolen. Should a man steal your money so you don't give it back to the banks ...

Misuse of Federal funds. Yikes! He will probably do time over that one...

Philly professor spent nearly $200K in Fed research funds at strip clubs

That is the way the US government was designed. The goal of the founding fathers was to limit central government power to allow state power to rule in each region. The stronger the Federal Government becomes the farther from the Constitution the US ...

It is time for us to get out of these Endless Wars and bring our soldiers home

I don't think he needs a deal to get reelected at this point. The Media and the liberal left have really angered his voting base and they will turn out in droves...

China is ready to do a deal on parts of the negotiations

I think the auto traders already have a destination put in place by their masters. They use news events to hide the intention of their price activities. If you can figure out where the masters want price to go then you will be ahead of the bots and ...

China is ready to do a deal on parts of the negotiations

Yep, you got it. JPY is the Asia-Pacific safe-haven currency.
