on a more serious note:

: Fed keeps rates unchanged, market improves slightlyThe averages have moved to their best levels of the session although they remain firmly in the red. The market moved slightly higher after the Fed announced they would keep rates unchanged. The Fed said the economy was on firm footing and that consumer spending and business expenditures have been growing. They also said that although crude oil has risen, underlying inflation has remained subdued.

Very correct indeed, my friend and the USA will eventually raise rates as well. As you know the US has quiet some room for rate hikes but i dont think that the first rate hike will happen before late 2011 at the very earliest.

ecb has not raised yet either. its just perception. but if its priced in. the last one to indicate the raise will have the perception. in recent days oil and metals have gone down.. ecb may punt. if this continues.

A good question is, if the ECB finally backpedals (because of Japan or whatever other reason) and does not hike rates next month as most analysts anticipated, will the EUR take a big hit? I would be interested in hearing cloggie's view on this.

The ECB will only raise if inflation is at risk, unemployment does not come into it unlike the FED. Just the rumour of the hikes is actually taking care of the problem all by itself for now. Lovely isn't it.

IF the ECB is not going to hike in April the EUR will see a good correction, the rate hike is slowly being priced in here. The drop could well be quite severe if the fixed income boys give us a hand.

Buy the rumour, sell the news. IF the news does not materialises, double up.

if 4020.2 slaps us back below 3986.8 (and close) .. maybe we repeat today then some.

Why is the heck EUR is rising? I'll keep selling this PIG..

Ohh, and USDJPY will hit my huge long position around 80.00.

Few more Earthquakes (after shocks) and it's over completely.

Place your bets accordingly.
