Hi Ashraf,

I enjoyed your interviews this morning. You'd mentioned buying AUD/USD in pullbacks - do you have a short/medium-term target for that pair.

I suppose since it broke the resistance of 84.50-55 there is little chance of it returning back to that level or lower? Thanks.

Can everyone please leave the "hidden" sarcastic comments aside. No one is ever right all the time. And NO one is ever willing to give information like this for free. You know who you are. C'mon, we're all in this together, or at least should be. Not to say that we all have to have the same analysis. But let's support one another. Thanks.

Hey Ashraf,

Hope you are enjoying your vacation. How do you feel about that AUD/USD trade now that the resistance was broken? And are you still standing firm with 148.00 GBP/JPY target?

Also, are you still bearish overall, despite equities barely budging downward? And, do you think the China QFII quota being raised will lift China (and world) equities even more?

Thanks

Hey Ashraf,

Hope you are enjoying your vacation --- wanted to thank you for telling to "wait it out" on my long USD/CAD. I might not have, glad I did.
Short GBP/JPY for a target of 148 as you suggest -- I just hope the UK data this week doesn't come in better than expected to goof that up.

OK, thanks -- sounds like a good reason for reason for people not to be concerned about intervention at all. Also, from what I've noted. USD/CAD moves more based on risk related to stocks than oil --- but then again, if you are saying that oil is now dictating risk (stocks), I guess that's the same thing. Thanks and enjoy your "time off" - in quotes because I know you'll be watching the markets.

Wow, it's about time you take a vacation :). You deserve it!! Big time. Can I bother you once more before you go?
When would you thrown the towel in on a long USD/CAD. Thanks and enjoy! Please share where you are going if you are comfortable with that, just a curious person I am. I won't hunt you down, don't worry.

One last thing to all, I promise (for now)--- this is an interview with Max Keiser from France. I believe he also predicted the crash well ahead of time. It's about the state of banks and how they swap toxic assets when they need to report their holdings. Also, how American GDP is represented by: obviously spent consumers and WAR mongering.

Unfortunately, on his own site, he yells and screams which I think can discredit him to some people but if you have some time, this is definitely worth listening to. I don't have a fact-checker for his statements but it sounds dead on. It's worth listening to, even if just to discredit the bears and me on how "ridiculous" and over-blown his statements are.

By the way, does anyone follow this guy?

Hi Cougr,

Read this! Bank of Japan's positive tone may as well be the same as the Fed's rhetoric of a stabilizing economy - all to force those uninformed, distracted Americans who already have the wool pulled over their eye's, get completely suffocated on reality. The only thing stabilizing is the investors wallets with money in stocks and commodities. The number of "for rent" commercial real estate properties is growing by the day. I literally see this walking down the street. Granted NY got hit harder because of the loss of finance jobs, but consumers are spent, they're done! Citi and BoA are still sitting on so many potential (probable losses) and Meredith Whitney is talking about many more (I believe 300) bank failures. I wouldn't be surprised if this turns out to be a 10-year deflationary (hopefully not inflationary for me with dollars in US) depression.

Anyway Japan is advertising on TV, to their citizens to buy their debt. Just digging deeper into the hole.

I know less than anyone on this forum about the economy, etc.., I chose to be a health expert - as you are worthless without you health!

I wonder if Yen is appreciating because of those people who realize we're in no way shape or form in a stabilized place. The system may not collapse but...

Sorry to take up so much space, thanks for letting me vent a bit.
