@ashraf.... not to forget also the relative weakness in the dollar which is oil positive, the promise/threat of more fed intervention if economy stalls or if things get better, either way this is $ negative right?
Im no expert on anything but isn't the basel 3 agreement for capital tier ratios just another way of admitting the waste pipe is blocked full of toxic *&@p and that the plunger of fed easing hasn't worked so now the banks waste pipe is being widened for them to flush even more wate down them in future?
heres the ft link on the matter. http://bit.ly/cal8mN

very interesting, but im unclear what exactly has been agreed ?? is the UN or international monitors saying they aren't complying? i thought the USA and Russia were getting along so well recently. As long as Russia takes all spent uranium away for processing and the reactor is internationally monitored what's the problem?

yes i read ALL your tweets and file all your IMT's in its own special IMT folder.
AUD and CAD just seemed to hammer the GBP today, it just felt like a lot of pips. compared to the eurgbp gain and gbpusd drop.

what i find worrying about the S&P500 is 5days of directionless trade, a reverse hammer followed by a doji , now today the futures arent looking like they want to test the 50day and look like hugging the bottom of the bollinger 20,2 ive got a big support line in @1071 which it bounced off nicely yesterday, my gut feeling is we are going to break to 1040, unfortunately i feel the market may try a move up to test 1120 again before the end of aug before that happens. For me a key level will be the 100ma closing in this friday on the current level.
Anyone agree?

The Bond market doesnt like the longer term outlook for inflation to the upside, it seems a bubble is also forming in 5year notes. http://bit.ly/30yearbondrates

passiontrader don't take to much notice of zerohedge, amusing, but wholly inaccurate.

i don't think the US job figures are that bad considering the past few months have included several thousand temporary consensus workers, that have been skewing the data.
and, as FT says, 'More encouraging components of the jobs report included the continued strength of manufacturing payrolls and increases in the average workweek as well as hourly earnings which bullish economists pointed to as signs that companies are on the cusp of a wave of new hires.'
