Cesarnc's market talk, gossips, rumours & fun

But he is protected by layers of thermal underwear and by waterproof insulated pants and jacket. So it's not the same as jumping in cold water.
Protection makes all the difference.

Yup.... The cold water was the protection for the 30ºC kickass burning Sun

A far cry from th 9ºC, no sun we have here.

Nov. 17 (Bloomberg) -- President-elect Barack Obama said the U.S. government will do ``whatever it takes'' to revive the economy, and that means ``we shouldn't worry about the deficit next year or even the year after.''



In other words, we are going into debt in order to fix our deficit.
Didn't take long before he found out who his boss really is.

It's the same BS everywhere. Every 8 years we also get that feeling that "things will be different with the new president". It takes 4 years to piss you off, the SOB gets re-elected, then another 4 years of misery until the next one rises and we feel that "things will be different with the new president"......

How to value currencies, by the price of an Ipod and big mac.

Nov. 17 (Bloomberg) -- IPod music players and Big Mac hamburgers are showing the world's biggest investors that the Australian dollar, the worst-performing currency in the past six months, may be a bargain.
Apple Inc.'s ``Classic'' iPod costs $249 in the U.S. and the equivalent of $220 in Australia, a gap that suggests the so- called Aussie will appreciate as much as 24 percent to 80 U.S. cents by May, according to Tsutomu Komiya, a money manager at Daiwa Asset Management Co. in Tokyo.

Brothels bill health insurers for sex acts
Sex acts passed off as therapeutic health remedies in illegal scam in Sydney
The Associated Press

CANBERRA, Australia - Dozens of Sydney brothels are passing off sex acts as therapeutic massages and illegally billing health insurers for the services, a newspaper and an official said Monday.

Health funds uncovered the fraud after investigating a Chinese-language newspaper advertisement offering to provide "young attractive masseuse with a health fund rebate," Sydney's The Daily Telegraph newspaper reported.

Australian Health Insurance Association spokeswoman Jen Eddy confirmed the article was accurate but said she did not know whether criminal charges would be filed.

"I understand the information is accurate although I cannot identify the fund that carried out the investigation," she said.

Health Minister Nicola Roxon said her department was investigating the report because public money was involved through government subsidies to health insurance premiums.

"We are interested in public funds being used for health services, and if we have any evidence to the contrary then certainly we would look at how we could take action," she told reporters.

The newspaper said about 80 massage services in Sydney have been registered by health funds for fraudulent behavior due to the investigation, meaning they can no longer gain insurance rebates for their services.
The article did not say how many of these services were claiming rebates for sex and Eddy could not provide a figure.

Businesses exposed by all-male clientele
Sex services which cost 60 Australian dollars ($39) were billed as a massage or acupuncture session and each attracted a health insurance rebate of AU$40, the newspaper said.

Some businesses were exposed because all their clients were men aged between 36 and 72 years who were charged for acupuncture treatments over consecutive days, the newspaper said.

Some charged insurers for multiple massages or acupuncture sessions when only one was provided so that the customer paid nothing, it said.

Okay... the Monday is now starting....

Citigroup CEO Vikram Pandit plans to make a dramatic statement Monday morning about major cut backs in the struggling firm's workforce aimed at calming market fears.

"The object here is for people to take notice," said one person close to the company. "The exact number is still a moving target but it will be dramatic."

Has anybody noticed that NY has become the new London? Or NL for short.
Most of the currency moves now happen during the NY session. I wonder how long this will last. I prefer the London session, Normally I can leave my computer by now, not anymore.

Looks like some trader tried to kill himself on the Brazilian exchange. He shot himself in the chest but was later saved by fellow traders.
