Since I like to poke the bear... Sounds like WTC Tower 7 again. Even the $40 safe in my house is water proof.

Toronto has always been the exception to the housing market. Also, it's not collapsing, it's bubbling. That being said, I'd love to have the cash available if the bubble pops. Considering the rate at which the prices have been rising, I'd say there ...

It was mostly due to consumer products and consumer related materials. It's a surprise, but not unbelievable. This is far more positive IMO than manufacturing exports.

Pretty sizable beats on both CDN and US trade numbers... and almost zero price movement. Risk-sentiment clearly depressed. Could be a rough day for equities and USD gains while they risk-off. That being said, short U/C here probably has better R:R.

I definitely think we could see a 2010 repeat. However, as an outsider looking in, Obama has a bit less pressure to appease lobbyists/voters now. As an outsider looking in, it will say a lot of Obama if he refuses to kick the can for 2 years. Time ...

Correct me if I'm wrong... But if the House does not accept the President's proposal, isn't it more likely to see the tax cuts expire (therefore increasing the national revenue) and leave the president a blank slate? Considering the US recovery ...

After the initial financial crisis, I see a pretty obvious down trend on the unemployment numbers... what am I missing? Are americans unhappy because it's not improving fast enough? I look at the 8 years prior and the republican plan that helped get ...

CAD strength is generally more of a north american risk-on trade the past few years. Although the Canadian stability appears to have caused an increase in capital flow since the spring.

Because I have 10 min til market open, I'd like to take this moment to troll about...

Great risk-on trade (short USD). The confusion let me get in a bit late on the nice retrace, 20 pips and climbing now. Should be a good day for equities. Strange energy and gold prices though... good spots for longs with small SL's (great R:R)

ran into some resistance at 1.0010. I'd look for some consolidation and then a push to 1.0030. Otherwise we may see a dip back under 1.000

So... they can screw around for 2 more years? Hmmm, Euro positive?

What I mean by demand is primarily increases in manufacturing orders which lags less than actual export numbers. Capital flow accompanied by increasing manufacturing orders and (more speculatively) increasing US home/auto/retail numbers paint a more ...

Baseless analyses are baseless. The reason CAD has gained so much is because of the bottoming/recovering US housing, manufacturing, and retail. 75% of CDN exports go to the US. So there is an increased demand for CDN products AND the USD is being ...

Same. I took a gamble at .9970, expecting the hawkish talk from the BOC. TP at .9890, sell again on a multi-close below .9880. It will need some good solid consolidation to break the .9850 level again. Negative sentiment could very well blunt the ...

Not a bad spot for a crude long, $87 has some good support. But I doubt that is his reasoning, haha. USD is gaining because of the negative sentiment, simple.

"Over time, some modest withdrawal of monetary policy stimulus will likely be required, consistent with achieving the 2 per cent inflation target. The timing and degree of any such withdrawal will be weighed carefully against global and domestic ...

Well, working with some major retailers and exporters. I expect to see a bit of a positive surprise from the core sales. September has been a great month for most retailers. Exports to the US continue to increase even with the loonie at a high ...

Regarding the further top-side. I think we forget how much cash is still on the sidelines. There are a lot of managers with 5-20% cash hanging around. Not to mention if the housing market continues to improve, that gives the average american more ...
