Yes, Al Gore and them people that do gods work aswell.
Nice to meet you ifly

Not to mention the BBC who have been shamelessly promoting AGW for years.

Incidentally, a large portion of their pension fund is invested in companies linked to climate change. Coincidence?

Impact? Yes. Large impact? No.
Those that point to the horrific effects of AGW have a monetary interest in doing so. Al Gore has a major stake in a company that trades carbon credits; had carbon taxes gone through, he'd probably worth close to $1 billion today.

Solar and volcanic activity have a much larger impact on the Earth's temperature than man ever will.
Not saying I actually buy Al Gore's version of climate chage (he's a politician and politician = Billy Bullsh*ter), but I did study environmental concerns as part of my degree (granted that was back in the 90's) and the rate of deforestation, top soil erosion, etc. ain't good news, I would equate Amazonian deforestation with chopping up a treasure chest for fire wood (not knowing what's in it), not sure of the figures, but it's pretty amazing the amount of species we're losing on a yearly basis, species that may have medical properties for example.

Ps. I do lean more towards the conspiracy camp than I do to the official gov't approved version on many issues...

Anyone here think the big Asian buyers in Dec were just satisfying YE macro and CB positions? They are noticably absent here on the low end of the latest dip to the bottom... maybe they will be on the bid in Asia?

I'm fading the short.

I see where are you coming from and I agree with the ability to follow them profitably is priceless but don't confuse discipline with psychological factors. One is a required skill for trading that cant be learn, the other are inner fears and demons that goes beyond trading

Yes. Just give me a few minutes to prepare them. And please note that they are calculated taken into account the time zone of my metatrader which is very probable to be different from yours.

So I'll be back with the upload in 20-30 minutes.

Merkel has been going on about that since last November. She wants to share the burden for propping up the EU zone. If this passes, it will be the easiest entry for a position trade we have seen in a long time (remember QE2 announcement?)

EURO-DOLLAR: Shallow dip found a base a pip or two below $1.3000 and
move lower may have been a hunt for any option-related stops below the
level where a strike had been touted. Pair rebounds to $1.3008 as
disappointed shorts seek cover

Free hookers? Which hotel? I was just there for New Years. But I'm not sure that my wife would like it if I returned from the gaming tables with both a free drink and a hooker.


I still can't believe that these sovereign countries are absorbing bank losses without bondholders taking a hit. The moral hazard that politicians have created is beyond insane.

Several reasons, there is no vehicle in place, no fiscal prudence, no fiscal authority and once they went down that road last fall it would have been disastrous and we would have seen parity in 3 months. The FI boys are no fools, once they restructure any re financing will be costly, the FI boys will make their money back eventually, remember Russia and GS's "floating"
