Will the US buy.
Only a 4 point div on the DOW for Wednesday.
More div's kick in next week.

I normally leave a few DOW buys in overnight.
But not tonight.
Would rather let the DOW run today, could find a new range.

On friday, 400 tonnes of gold, equivalent to 15% of the annual gold mine production, was sold within 30 minutes. Crushed the market.

That seems like a huge sell, I take it that's well above normal volume ?

china data destroyed everything

 

[samspade79]

I think top is in ?

Probably not yet, it will likely whip back up as per usual. Economic news is now irrelevant to the teflon stock market.

this is certainly a big resistance area for the US so limited upside/sideways to down....no i'm not insane ....but don't frighten the ftse

no it wasn't a surprise ....and the poor old ftse fell back through the black hole


dow/ftse getting back into sync

 

[SuddenDeath]

Goodmorning

As its proving this morning. IMF just lowered world growth forecast too, so that should see DOW over 15k.
