Banks complain about QE3 to Fed
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

There is much consternation about what triggered today's rapid escalation of selling pressure in US stocks. As the evening wends on and traders sip their Absinthe, it appears an embargoed record of the Fed's Advisory Panel minutes was at least a major concern as it raised the very real specter that those in charge are concerned at the monster they have created:

"There is also concern about the possibility of a breakout of inflation, although current inflation risk is not considered unmanageable, and of an unsustainable bubble in equity and fixed-income markets given current prices."

"Unsustainable bubble"? And this not from some fringe blog but... bankers?

And some bonus words, which have to be read to be believed:

Uncertainty exists about how markets will reestablish normal valuations when the Fed withdraws from the market. It will likely be difficult to unwind policy accommodation, and the end of monetary easing may be painful for consumers and businesses. Given the Fed�s balance sheet increase of approximately $2.5 trillion since 2008, the Fed may now be perceived as integral to the housing finance system.

Uhm... wow.

The amount owed on loans secured by investments rose to $384 billion at the end of April, according to data compiled by Finra, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. It was the first time the total had surpassed the 2007 peak of $381 billion, a peak that was followed by the Great Recession and credit crisis.

The accompanying charts show the level of outstanding margin debt since 1960, both in dollars and as a percentage of gross domestic product. The latest total of borrowing amounts to about 2.4 percent of G.D.P., a level that in the past was a danger signal.

Been out with the family missed the action, looking at light show in Sydney Harbour missed the comments regarding the SMH article I posted.

What I thought when I read the article is the emphasis the market places on Non-Farm Payroll figures each month. This figure determines trends in interest rate and FX markets for the ensuing weeks. The initial figure, however, is invariably adjusted over the following two months yet the adjustments are ignored.

Take yesterday's Australian economic data - Capital Expenditure and Housing Approvals. Both issued at 11:30am AEST the market was anxious for the former, didn't like what it saw pushed Aussie down to 0.9580, then read the latter liked that. The currency then jumped up to 0.9640 all in the space of a few seconds certainly less than a minute. For a retail trader or a corporate too short a time frame to be able to react. Now where are we? Back at 0.9600.

An overdraft? That'll be �200 at Lloyds TSB (but only �15 if you're a Muslim)
Reply   

Many Lloyds TSB customers are being hit with charges of up to �200 a month if they go into the red - while Muslims who use the bank are only being charged �15.
The part-nationalised bank has been accused of religious discrimination over the disparity between overdraft charges on its standard current account and its Islamic account.
The Islamic account was set up by the high street bank to attract Muslim customers by allowing them to keep faithful to their religion.
Sharia law does not permit the payment of interest so the 'typical' Islamic account at Lloyds TSB has been set up without an overdraft facility.

Sorry stepped out
I wasn't wanting to offend anyone here talking about size, experience etc. I was merely hoping to point out that most "talking heads", "economists" and "strategists" (the professionals) in the financial media are closer to at best salesmen espousing extrapolation of any recent move or have at worst buy and hold or perma bear biases.
The great thing about FX trading is that different styles have a home from noise jobber, flow follower, warehouse manager, day or long term trend trader. The different time, financial and style horizons mean shorts and longs can make money despite the Man vs Man zero sum cliche. As long as the position (risk) is in proportion to the capital and volatility tolerance the size is irrelevant. FX is a much more level playing field than other markets and less insider knowledge dependent.

Best of luck to everyone out there.

I always post trade / anticipated market movements that I believe have merit. Sometimes it works out, other times.... not so much.

I do hope that I have not been in anyway responsible for hounding anyone from the forum, except perhaps our friend from Dhaka who likes to spam!

Any "Masters of the Universe" out there..... come back, we need you !

ACC. There are only 6 fund managers worldwide that are "Masters of the universe" and they deserve the title to match their ego. Not one of them is American.
There were 2 of these "Masters off the Universe" some years back that were posters on the Forex forum because they thought it was the best way to "give something back" , but sadly they were hounded off the Forum by traders who operate 2k accounts and are "legends in their own lunchbox"....g/Weekend to all.

ACC I was only talking to my old boss the other day about how dumb the average guy in the market is these days compared to years ago. Once upon a time the market was much smalled and seemed to be streetwise or tech-clever or mathematics genius to secure a job. Its now disproportinately sized compared to real economy and its full of snake oil salesmen, pavlovian dogs and off the rack "TA for dummies" who all glorified day traders who have ADHD. The financial market has become so large and is now accesible to those with both little capital and little experience it mirrors the rest of society....its a bell curve.

Watching CNBC is cringeworthy......come to GVI where the air is clear and no BS policy where when nothing happens the opinion is nothing happened.

'aren't all that smart' ?

I should coco !

An extract from a recent email I sent to a comrade FX junkie !

"It is simple, made to look brain churningly difficult. Admitted, when big stuff come out, because 2/3 of the morons in charge of funds have not the first idea what to do, but feel that they must do something, then, they do something. This is a dangerous time, because what they do will bear little or no semblance to what should be done, hence the convulsion that we see."

Still....... it keeps them busy ... and us guessing ! :-)

Despite the vast amounts they are paid and their own rating of themselves, Wall Street�s index-hugging �Masters of the Universe� funds managers mostly aren�t all that smart � as the track record of most of them indicates. While their world view is broader than most Americans�, that�s not saying much, and they often repeat the last headline they�ve read and don�t look far beyond them.

Antipodeans are building up a storm..

Read Tim Colebatch's article in todays SMH.

Expected capital investment is always overly optimistic. He quoted past figures and the actual capital investment was lower than the expected figure.

Looking forward, while some of this capital expenditure has to be made owing to time it takes a project to come to fruition, just how much can be pulled in the meantime.

All to tenuous to be believed in my opinion.

Growing number of calls from economists for the RBA to cut next week. Unlikely though.

USD/JPY dropped from 101.10 to 100.60, the move was triggered by a fall in Japanese equities. The market was caught short, having failed to take the large stops out below 100.50, combined with large fixing demand the pair raced higher, eventually stalling around 101.50. The pair then drifted back to 101.00 on Japanese exporter supply.

AUD/USD fell initially from 9620 to 9585 on the headline capex number, on closer examination of the data, showing future investment was higher than estimated and stellar building approvals, we began to rally. Momentum waned above 9670 but dips towards 9640 were eagerly sought. As European markets opened, the �Aussie� was trading at 9680. Stops were being touted above 9710.
