For all the drama and comedy surrounding the epic idiocy in which a bunch of "investors" took the price of non-existent company CYNK from essentially zero to a market cap of over $5 billion in under a week, most people missed the key message here: the stock is a harbinger of what is happening to the entire market. Because while those defending what is clear irrational exuberance, scratch that, irrational idiocy are quick to point out that CYNK's epic surge took place on less than 0.1% of its outstanding shares, these are the same people to say precisely the opposite about the S&P 500. "Ignore the collapsing volumes sending the stock market to all time high - it's perfectly normal"
Perhaps ironically, it was the concurrent most recent crisis in Europe, that involving Portugal's cryptic Espirito Santo group, whose top-most HoldCo is largely shrouded in secrecy yet which somehow is not a deterrent to the sellside community to issue one after another "all is clear; don't pull your deposits please" note, that confirmed not only that nobody has any idea what the real situation of European banks is, but how the entire capital market has now become nothing more than one glorified CYNK penny-stock turning into a mid-cap.
In other words, just like the CEO of CYNK who promptly "made" a few billion in paper profits, it feels great to "make" money on virtually no volume. The problem arises when one tries to cash out of paper and into all too real profits.

There will be no QE in Europe. This is the American pipe dream: that everyone else on the planet follows their lead: prints money and by embarking on global devaluation of paper money somehow manages to save the USD from its inevitable decline. Now why would Europe embrace QE ? What exactly is it expected to achieve. It didn't work in the U.S. and it hasn't worked in Japan, although it did give the Japanese a better exchange rate with which to repatriate funds. Weimer was GERMANY remember. Been there, done that got the post card.

john, i think its important to take everything into context. the recent data out of the uk points to a slight readjustment to gdp down to 0.8% q/q which is still pretty good and the pmis are still at v high levels. the US seems to have lukewarm growth with slight signs of inflations, while the eurozone has neither although inflation and pmis seem to have bottomed at v low levels.
fwiw usdjpy was v close to 55 week ma yesterday not seen since 80. you do wonder whether there is a real want for 110 plus from japan, or whether talk of such is just to keep the pair from retracing significantly under 100.

IMF pronounces Bulgaria’s banks safe just two weeks before Bank Run
Friday, 11 July 2014
Earlier this summer, IMF bureaucrats went to Sofia, Bulgaria to study the country’s economic progress.
And roughly a month ago, they released an official report which stated, among other things, that Bulgarian banks are “stable and liquid.”
Talk about epic timing. Because less than two weeks later, Bulgaria’s banking system was in the throes of a full-blown crisis.
There was a run on two of the nation’s largest banks—several hundred million dollars had been withdrawn in a matter of hours.

Uncertainty is the only thing clear in this market.
Big accounts know, that speculators will not wait long time(greed) before entering any position. So the crocodiles will appear then. The ability to move now the Mkts. on both sides is equal. So find something else to do:)

Forex News
Maybe there is an absence of fear because the CBs are on guard BUT the Portugal Bank news was in the market late on TUES - in all major mkt news early on WEDS (popped up on this forum) - so it didn't affect mkts until THURS ??
Whenever the media wrap-ups jump on this kind of "old news" story to explain a market move I suspect either 1) there is more to the story (second shoe theory) or 2) some other game is afoot
FOMC Minutes was the dominant news WEDS NY afternoon - mkts celebrated because the Minutes disclosed that the individual Members were either confused or comatose - so Party On - yields down, stox up, USD weaker (all the right moves) -- Portugal wasn't on the worry list anywhere
Hmmm, so what really happened on THURS ??

we spent 3-4 days testing 1.4540-50
only today with the CAD number it has become more unstable at the lows.
@40 bot generated sell @80 it is saying buy -- but obviously the CAD Number has made it unstable at the lows.
hard to say now with eur aud and gbp having had morning weakness but not alot of follow through .. so maybe better head out and see what London brings.
