Ashraf what's your take on correlation between Yen, Dollar, Gold, Oil and Dow?

I used to make a lot of money selling Yen and Dollar pairs taking hints from Dow, Gold and Oil. But now things have changed dramatically and moves between these make no sense for correlations.

Thanks

You say weak auctions right...

I was thinking that low yields on US bonds may help (investors going for higher yields) the auctions in EURO ZONE thus helping the banks and stabling the Euro.

how do you see it?

Just learning the stuff,... thanks for all the help.

TBP, Im not sure if markets will fall simply on no QE. we will need more bad news, like for instance disapponting Greek & Portuguese auctions.

Catch the overnight threat from China's sov wlth fnd CIC about "loose US policy". Might give the Fed something to think about. Delicate US-China dance this week of which is the dog and which is the tail...

BTW... really like your China-Japan theory. My only question is whether China would really risk derailing its own "goldilocks" with a deposit rate hike. Higher rates would only fan their own inflation bubble thru FDI, no?

Great insight on the "liquidity connection"... Bullish spurts seem to be most pronounced on risk-off days.

Here's a good reference for GLD etf holdings I use:http://www.exchangetradedgold.com/
BTW, its not primarily retail investors - funds run by Soros and Paulson are huge GLD holders.
