  • Powell: Opening Remarks

    From federalreserve.gov

    I am deeply honored to have been asked to speak here today about the remarkable legacy of George Shultz. Just to be clear, I will not address current economic conditions or monetary policy. I have been an admirer of George Shultz since my college years. I saw him then and now as a great role model, as I mentioned a few months ago when delivering the Baccalaureate address to Princeton's class of 2025, 50 years after my own graduation. As I told the graduates, when I faced the world after college, I had no real plan, but knew that I wanted to combine a private-sector career with public service. I had in mind a few ... (full story)

I’d say that was a pre planned stop run to screw over weak longs. Just like last night when they took several stocks down in low volume after hours trading. These guys make a killing by playing games in off hours. I watched them take Nvidia down to about 174 on nothing, buy all they wanted, then sold it above 180. That’s why you see banks have good trading profits, it’s not by accident. It’s hard to move things during the American session but easy overnight.

Yes, you are right.
But maybe an EUR/USD long seems stronger than a GBP/USD long.
What do you think?

Powell is a lame duck, he doesn’t matter anymore. Rates will be at least a point lower next year, dollar will not do well but equities will go higher than anyone expects.
