started a gold long trade 100 leverage knock out 1210 at 1228 spot my source told me 1220 is safe due to big hedge positions by miners. Spot gold will eventually reach 1100 but I think not tomorrow.
I monitor JGB and the decrease in yield as well as the decrease in CDS on JGBs told me go long Nikk and go short JPY. That was correct. BOJ is not yet out of ammu. However , every such "success" raises the sceptre of sudden criticality
Strength meter showed today GBP strength constant while USD crashed after weak economic data. Thus cable rose as USD was sold vs JPY. GBPAUD GBPJPY shorts running. GBP actually is weak. Lives only off very weak USD. Btw. London Tube stations/lines could be renamed under sponsorship proposals that is Merkel Place, Merkel Palace, Merkel Square etc. All these are serviced by Merkel Line ( uses right track )
Um...BOJ is fighting JGB yields . Made some money trading Nikkei back and forth -7% + 4% -5% ... that's not quite bullish. Now if JPY carry trade ( also good: AUD, hi return) runs dry... not good for S&P.
Methinks its all about Southstream. Georgia / Ossetia was about Southstream gas pipe, too. As Putin's Oligarch friends do pay taxes but are refunded with far more than they paid, Gazprom is Putin's only source of income. He will defend that at any means. Beware of the wild east shootist.
Still wary Syria is about to become a larger scale conflict. If one could trust russian media under Putin's approval Russian anti air missiles - not the latest technology - have reached Syrai and soon will be operative. What do you think about gold oil and USD when an S300 shoots down an Israel military jet? Or worse a civil aircraft? Well Iran has more advanced russian missiles and so far no Israeli jet did dare to even come close. Iran is very happy as the conflict moves to Syria they can now almost stress-free complete their nukes.
Israel threats to bomb russian S300 squads if these should be deployed in Syria. Of course the conflict is not about rebels it is about Gazprom. Gas from Qatar and such. And a huge comfortable biz for russian oligarchs selling weapons to Iarn Syria's Assad and the "rebels"
i am short s&p 1674 with enough significance level markets go down before Ben's address or move sideways with an overall down slope I expect Ben will bring more uncertainty then confidence so the FOMC minutes will give the direction ( most possibly to 1707- 1711)
