That might be the nicest thing someone ever said to me here. If I see the same thing "specialists" are seeing, I must be getting the hang of this.
in fact, those same specialists who said in January the target will be 1.4++... so will see !?

That is balls of steel...

id rather open 20 contracts of EURJPY and gain 30 pips..

That's entirely up to you to join the +500 pips or +30 pips club.

Those "specialists" are paid to take jibberish. Never think they are setting you up? They also said 1.3 before 1.2, and well that didn't work out so well.

lol gaining 30 pips is still only 30 pips. Hey can we have the bronze club? I have plenty of 100+ pipers!

Question to all analysts:

What are the impacts to USD and JPY if BB hinted to tighten or cease QE? How the markets are going to react and what will be the best instruments to trade?

Wouldn't he have to raise interest rates if he did that?

Yes. Well, my understanding is the market sets most rates (I guess the Fed funds rate would increase), but if rates increase the markets will be in the shitter. I think his zero rate policy is artificially inflating the housing market. I think these "specialists" are underestimating the impact. "Don't fight the Fed!" What if the Fed throws the match in the 10th rd?

It would be a disaster for the market.

Interest rates rising would mean more people who can't pay off their mortgage and end up on the street.

The cost of property would plummet, demand for rental property would be through the roof.

Those who remember how bad in was in the early 80's when Volcker pushed the rates to 20% will know what I'm talking about. I wasn't very old but I do remember some parts. My old man nearly lost his house and 80% of his income went to pay the mortgage.

The rates would have to be raised significantly higher than that to really have the desired effects. For those who own property without a mortgage and savings in the bank will be laughing their heads off. But most won't.

Perhaps interest rates will go down. As in below zero.

This would force people to spend their money as soon as they get their hands on it. Much in the same way people did in Zimbabwe because at one point, their dollar bills had an expiry date.

Well like any government or politician, only focused on the short-term without looking further down the road. Obama is freaking out about the sequester (although he is the one that proposed and signed it). the 85 billion that would be cut this year is what the US government borrows every 28 days.

those with a fixed 3% will love it. but they will not see the value rise much like the last 30 years. i remember well. i made money and still paid 10/12+% interest on rental property mortgage. the way it is now, others are subsidizing me and my mortgage. i did like the lower rates, but a chimp could see where we were headed. all this money borrowed at low rates today and the last 30 years will have to be paid at a future interest. and nobody knows what it will be. that credit card has been receiving minimal payments since the 50 ties. and the fed tacks on 5% on each $.
those who can, do. those who cant, talk about those who can
