If I dont smoke dope before I start trading I dont understand why the markets react as they do. The world apparently need to be seen upside down and that goes best with a heavy smoke ((:

Unemployment insurance weekly claims

Certainly good numbers.

Money talks so everybody wants to sleep with China.

House votes to send China sanctions bill to Trump’s desk as tensions escalate

But it is still unclear to me what boosting the indices does to the general economy for the EU/US citizens. Maybe one day a book will be written on the economic policy from 2008 and onwards and the consequences. In reality we are trapped. Since the ...

Equities rally continues, but the warning signs over US China relations are growing

Aint nothing beating FED. The deepest pockets seem to win again. Its impressive to see how markets completely ignore the massive unemployment, no revenue reportings and other factors that would normally be considered negative. We just have to trade ...

Equities rally continues, but the warning signs over US China relations are growing

No matter the size of the opponent human rights is always worth fighting for. I hope one day people will wake up and demand that manufacturing is brought "back home". Now there is plenty of unemployed in EU and US to get back in jobs so maybe now is ...

House votes to send China sanctions bill to Trump’s desk as tensions escalate

Indeed it is and therein lies the problem. You can squeeze anything into that box. Believe me, I am absolutely in favor of EU and I truly hope that EU will survive this crisis. I am sure it will. But I also reserve the right to remain sceptical to ...

The European Union Is on the Brink of Historic Change

No I was not involved in trade in the 90's. I was barely born then (: But even in the 90's why would you cycle through Europe with £100 and not take the automobile? (:

The European Union Is on the Brink of Historic Change

Thats how markets work in a schrewed world. Trade it, dont fight it. Leave your thinking at home.

Fed’s Beige Book says businesses are pessimistic about pace of a recovery

Mee too. So happy that I can travel to other countries without showing my passport and exchange money in the bank the day before. Imagine what a hurdle it would be to use 5 minutes showing passport and another 5 mins going to the ATM to get Deutch ...

The European Union Is on the Brink of Historic Change

And it Spikes up. On this.

Beige Book - May 27, 2020

I enjoy every summer in my summer house in Provence. This year will probably be different. But if I get the opportunity to go I will. I always feel welcome (:

EU Commission To Mobilise EUR750Bln For European Recovery – DPA

Absolutely. Every country does it. But for that to make sense require some kind of equality between the people/states who pay and people/states who receives. The problem here is that this is cross border tax distribution between countries that are ...

EU Commission To Mobilise EUR750Bln For European Recovery – DPA

Depends on the eyes that see. I dont think this is good news. EU has developed into a socialism experiment where the "rich north" os giving away money to the poor south. EU was once matter of free trade. Now it is a social union granting social ...

EU Commission To Mobilise EUR750Bln For European Recovery – DPA

And who is paying. The high taxed citizens from the Northern Europe. I pay 55% in tax on income and 25% VAT on purchases and 150% tax on cars and I dont know how much on real estate. The list is endless. I do absolutely like the idea of free trade ...

EU recovery fund: Italy said to be getting €81.8bn in grants

Time will tell. Is it being taken up just to get dumped again? Only time can tell. Trade with proper risk management and you wont break even if you are wrong (:

Chinese Foreign Ministry: HK Legislation Purely China's Internal Affair

I will eat my old straw-hat as we say in Denmark if this virus originated from anywhere outside China.

Kudlow: China's handling of the virus is Trump's biggest concern

No it doesnt but it it expensive trading against it.

Can Meditation Make Us Better Traders And Investors?

So go to bed with your shorts on. I am out. Not sure the direction after this. It sure smells fishy. A short move down and then up it goes again. Anyway, it takes some balls to go short on the move today. Personally I dont mind throwing my chips on ...
