DHS Statement On NBC News Coverage Of Election Hacking
WASHINGTON - Today, Jeanette Manfra, National Protection and Programs Directorate (NPPD) Assistant Secretary for the Office of Cybersecurity and Communications, released the following statement regarding the recent NBC news coverage on the Department of Homeland Security’s efforts to combat election hacking.
“Recent NBC reporting has misrepresented facts and confused the public with regard to Department of Homeland Security and state and local government efforts to combat election hacking. First off, let me be clear: we have no evidence – old or new - that any votes in the 2016 elections were manipulated by Russian hackers. NBC News continues to falsely report my recent comments on attempted election hacking – which clearly mirror my testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee last summer – as some kind of “breaking news,”
"NBC’s irresponsible reporting, which is being roundly criticized elsewhere in the media and by security experts alike, undermines the ability of the Department of Homeland Security, our partners at the Election Assistance Commission, and state and local officials across the nation to do our incredibly important jobs

s&p needs to close abv 50dma to call an end to the downside, until then folks will be uneasy. for euro we have a shed load of 122/123 expiries over nxt 2 days so expect a tight range within that ahead of key us cpi. this cannot be understated how imp wed cpi will be (also sterling gets cpi tom morn, will be fun) for usd AND stox sentiment. a beat is certain to kill stox dead and one would think give a boost to usd but risk off may end up sapping usd (certainly usdjpy at risk here) although one can be certain to get an initial strong spike on usd if cpi beats. an as f/c or soft cpi likely to boost risk assets significantly and again usd prob doesnt suffer too much by end of session.

PAR it is alleged that the windbag "will propose spending $200 billion over 10 years, most in the form of new, competitive grants designed to encourage states and cities to raise their own money for improving rails, airports, highways and water systems. The proposal also would expand federal loan programs for such projects.
The White House expects the spending to spark hundreds of billions more from local governments and private investors to pay for the upgrades, resulting in $1.5 trillion in new investment." .../..
Probably most of the juiciest trade opps have already been bagged however (sorry for that) but instead of focusing on some "propose(al) spending $200 billion over 10 years + "hope"" one would be better off off the

Markets Roundup by Scandinavian Capital Markets
Gold inched higher on Monday, increasing the price of yellow metal to more than $1300.00 an ounce after some key economic releases. The technical bias remains bullish because of a higher high in the ongoing upside move.
XAU/USD Technical Analysis
As of this writing, the precious metal is being traded near $1325.46 an ounce. A hurdle can be noted near $1365, a key psychological level ahead of $1373, the high of the last major upside rally on the daily chart and then $1400, the psychological level. A break and daily closing above the $1400 level shall trigger renewed buying interest, validating a rally towards the $1440 resistance zone.
On the downside, a support may be noted around $1311, an immediate horizontal support ahead of $1300, the psychological level as well as another key horizontal support area and then $1250, a major psychological number. The technical bias shall remain bullish as long as the $1200 support area is intact.
China Consumer Price Index
China’s consumer inflation cooled to 1.5 percent in January, in line with economists’ forecasts, official data showed on Friday.
The consumer price index (CPI) had been expected to moderate from a 1.8 percent gain in December.
The producer price index (PPI) rose 4.3 percent from a year earlier, also cooling from the previous month’s rise of 4.9 percent, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said on its website.
Analysts polled by Reuters had predicted producer inflation would ease to 4.4 percent in January.
Trade Idea
Considering the overall technical and fundamental outlook, buying the precious metal around current levels appears to be a good strategy in short to medium term.

The Economist: It Appears Market Conspiracy Theorists Were Right
Three new recently published scientific papers seem to confirm what many have claimed for years: the "efficient markets" are not only inefficient - from an informational standpoint - they are also badly rigged. Of the three papers, the Economist reports, one argues that well-connected insiders profited even from the financial crisis, while the other two go so far as suggesting the entire share-trading system is rigged.
Unlike conventional insider trading cases - which traditionally require fortuitous tip-offs and extensive, expensive investigations, involving the examination of complex evidence from phone calls, e-mails or informants wired with recorders - the papers make imaginative use of pattern analysis from data to find that insider trading is probably pervasive, according to the Economist.
The approach reflects a new way of analyzing conduct in the financial markets. It also raises questions about how to treat behaviour if it is systemic rather than limited to the occasional rogue trader.
The first paper starts from the private meetings American government officials held during the crisis with financial institutions. As discussed here years ago, what was not made public at the time were critical details about the infamous TARP program (which incidentally was created and administrated by current Minneapolis Fed president Neel Kashkari who paradoxically rages every day against bailouts of Too Big To Fail banks), notably how much money would be involved and how it would be allocated. This mattered hugely as the very survival of some institutions was at stake; in the end, hundreds of billions of dollars were pledged. Knowing the structure and scope of the bail-out in advance would have been a vitally important piece of information for investors during this period.

The only thing the bureaucratic resistance hates more than President Trump is the disclosure of their own salaries. It’s a classic case of the bureaucracy protecting the bureaucracy, underscoring the resistance faced by the new administration.
Open the Books filed a Freedom of Information Act request with the U.S. Office of Personnel Management for all federal employee names, titles, agencies, salaries, and bonus information.
We’ve captured and posted online this data for the past 11 years. For the first time, we found missing information throughout the federal payroll disclosures.

The Senate Bill 1091, which intends to enable cryptocurrencies for tax payment, was introduced Jan. 10, 2018 and passed by the Senate Finance Committee by a 4-3 vote on Jan. 24. On Feb. 8, the Senate passed the bill by a 16-13 margin, with one no-vote.
The bill has now been sent to Arizona’s House of Representatives.
If the bill is adopted, Arizona would become the first state in the U.S. to accept cryptocurrency tax payments by the year of 2020, as stated on the public record. The bill would allow taxpayers of the state to use “a payment gateway, such as Bitcoin, Litecoin or any other cryptocurrency recognized by the department, using electronic peer-to-peer systems.”

In the last week of January - just as the S&P was set to hit all time highs ahead of its sharp, 10% correction as vol finally woke up - we were discussing the looming monthly pension fund rebalancing sale of stock as a risk factor to equities. While there is more to it, the reason for this boiled down to the following: as a result of pension fund mandates and quotas, due to the persistent outperformance of stocks over bonds, in recent months pension funds had been forced to repeatedly reduce their equity exposure - or alternatively increase their allocation to bonds - at month end to maintain their stock/bond exposure limits. In other words, as long as stocks were on a tear, pension funds would be natural buffers to this meltup, periodically selling stocks while buying Treasurys.
This was ironic because just 3 weeks later, everything has changed, and after last week's dramatic stock market correction, suddenly the pension mandate has flipped, with the relative performance between stocks and bonds now meaning that pension funds have shifted from buyers to sellers of bonds.
Commenting on this regime shift over the weekend, Deutsche Bank's credit strategist called it an "enormous problem" for the following reason:
