my understanding is what they spend on one thing.. for instance bonds... when they buy spanish... and are at a limit.. they have to sell bonds to make room to buy more. so when at the limit buying Spanish, they cant buy Greek or whoever. . there is little room because they are at limits. they have to sell to buy
Yes sure, they have to sterilize their operation as the mandate don't allow them to leave inflation loose to focus on promoting growth via monetary policy (In the US after the last QE is exactly the opposite).

But don't forget, that the ECB (any CB) has the power of intimidation on expectations. They haven't bought anything since Draghi's call, bonds plummeted preemptively as no sane investor will step against the deepest [unlimited] pocket player in the markets (a CB) ... remember the SNB with EC bands...

In simple words as long as the preventive action works is very cheap weapon to use...the problem is if they don't deliver and markets start perceiving that is BS from the ECB (for example Germany Court opposing, etc would have opened that door, etc)... so nothing to sterilize as long the ECB is not massively buying bonds ...

Not doing too bad, though. When selling 5 million iPhones in a weekend is disappointing...things could be worse!

Still find it funny that only 2% of the world's computers are running Mac OS. Plenty of room for growth. We'll see. I know a few people that have converted since getting iPod/Phone/Pad's etc.

For all you sticklers out there, Mr. Softy’s inflation-adjusted value rises to $853.7 billion, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ inflation-calculator — but why quibble? Apple’s feat is an astonishing rise no matter how you slice it — the company didn’t even show up on a list of most valuable companies until the fourth quarter of 2009.

after the court ruling.. how many hours did it rise? was it 14 H? dragi would like the euro lower.. he just don't want the euro to fail.. lower does not hurt. the stress test was bullshit just like the other stress test were. anything i have of value is only worth what i can sell it for. Spanish banks are holding real estate worth less then 40% of what they say its worth. this also means the whole country has real estate 60% over value.. with most wealth contained in real estate. it makes the middle class impoverished. the people who don't own real estate are richer with all other things =. and that does/will spill over to the neighbors. banks make money loaning money.. how much loaning do you think those banks are loaning? take away the bond buying, banks do and they have no income.. and yet the ecb is loaning..

I still think we are not going to make the break on the Q roll (a close above 1430.xx ) but I am running out of time today. This is a Q/M/W/D break of last R before all time highs ...unreal 121% non stop up and counting for Obama with 1 month to go for elections...

Let see but a close below break is getting harder by the minute...

Agree on that.

In my FA chart I don't have the Court ruling marked but I do have the ECB "we'll do everything bla bla" massive conference ....from there we are +1000 ticks up (+/- 8.5%) with 7 clean swept weekly candles before the last one on profit taking for the Q roll...

Yeah...no pressure! Surely it doesn't end well when one company is carrying the lot, really.

BUT...I think they're safe for a while. So many things in their pipeline. The whole television thing is yet to come. More and more entertainment companies coming around to it. Some media companies are trying to keep them out of the game...understandably. But I see it as only a matter of time. Who knows how it will go down once in motion, but the potential is there (certainly their intent, I'm sure) to do the same to TV as they did to the mobile with the iPhone. As in...will never be the same again.

They make cool shit...I'm happy to see them do well.

Well agree 100%. On the banks not lending sure that is massive problem not only in Spain (which is and will be a disaster with or without the bailout) but globally. Do you think the UK banks are lending anything? even the US banks?

...they are "sitting in tons of cash" (and more on each QE or related), most to cover all costs after the wave of overegulation in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, the other to make a "killer" bypassing and speculating (stock markets are where they are 'cause a reason) but none going to the real final destination either a home buyer or a small medium business, etc ....

In simple words, Spanish banks despite been bankrupt because of the housing bubble, they are doing the same thing the rest of the banks in the world are doing .... which is making money doing everything else except acting as banks...
