Asimov Posts: 103900 Incept: 2007-08-26 East Tennessee Eastern Time	Just getting a thread started. ---------- It's justifiably immoral to deal morally with an immoral entity. If you trade based on what other people say, you will lose money. Especially what I say. I won't be held responsible. Festina lente. 2012-05-16 05:21:15 Permalink

Argos Posts: 6312 Incept: 2008-03-23 The Green Mountain State	Federal Reserve Minutes (.pdf): http://federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy.... The opening sentences of the Minutes: Quote: A staff presentation provided an overview of an exercise that explored individual participants’ views on appropriate monetary policy responses under alternative economic scenarios. Committee participants discussed the potential value and drawbacks of this type of exercise for both internal deliberations and external communications about monetary policy. Possible benefits include helping to clarify the factors that individual participants judge most important in forming their views about the economic outlook and their assessments of appropriate monetary policy. Not exactly a confidence-builder. It sound like they've already deliberated things over and over again, and still find themselves in disagreement.

The other is inaction due to one being boxed in and unable to do anything. In any case....no action, just jawboning...... ---------- Trading and investing is understanding about people, emotions and corruption of government, corporations, banks and people using propaganda, lies, mathematics and bankster logic working against you. 2012-05-16 14:37:42 Permalink
Nuke_engineer Posts: 2698 Incept: 2007-08-19	Quote: Market doesn't seem to know whether to **** or go blind. Normal momentary reaction while they pick up their jaw and let the news sink in that their savior for the last 3 years ain't just ready to save them right now. ---------- Trading and investing is understanding about people, emotions and corruption of government, corporations, banks and people using propaganda, lies, mathematics and bankster logic working against you.
