NAH, it was a head-fake, saw a spike at 15:30 and thought that the President's Plunge Protection Team was going to save the day, Make it so!, but the damn Klingons zapped the PPT their shields were lost and we were annihilated by the freaking' BORG. LEMMINGS!
 
I bookmark alot of theses and watch them, but didn't have "Informed Trades" - looks like good learning, and especially want to watch the next couple!
BTW, I hear everyone saying PPT is coming to the rescue - but maybe its the 15 yrs here in DC that's just turned me numb, but this sure sounds to me like just beltway-speak. I've lost faith in this, too bad because I wanna believe.:cool:

Anyway, a more serious question - like to hear your opinion on:
Its rate cuts - I just don't see there being a win from any cut.
Here's scenario:
Whether a .25; .50; > percieved as not enough/too late - negative.
If .75; 1.0 or more > percieved as serious problems > also negative (even though everybody preety much knows problems serious already).
- Could this be why no cuts have come out? -and won't (because the only REAL effect is to drive dollar into dirt?) :worried:

Well fellas, I'm in the same Boat you are, as hessian says we are BORG!
We know he will cut rates, how much and when is the question. Seems everyone (almost) thinks it may be tomorrow, Thursday, Friday would be a good one on Options Expirations day. I have no Idea, and am torn as what to do. Take a guess and a chance of more downside until the end of the Month? Wait it out and jump in day before the FED meets? I think Ben will, but when is a mystery to me. I'm soaking up the rays in the "F" Tomorrow, Just have to wait and SEEeeeeeeee!:confused:
Rate cuts seem to be very dangerous to me, too much and the Dollar may be seriously devalued and no telling what will happen then. We all know that the lower the rates the weaker the dollar the higher the price of Oil, that is very inflationary. Where does it end $200 a barrel $6 a gallon for Gas like Briton? I just don't like the looks of the whole thing, milk cost more than gas! Transportation costs are going to kill us in the end. What do I know anyway?:o

Hey sorry bud,
Didn't mean to make you feel you're supposed to have all the answers. We know you're in same state as us -just wondered if you had any insights beyond my own speculations. Obviously, up at this hour, writing this, there's alot I'm wondering about.
I was mostly just having difficulty seeing an upside to any cuts right now (and thought maybe, this could be same concern the Fed might be having this week). -Maybe they want to step in, but don't want the result to be just a couple days relief, then back down we go. Which is what I think might happen if they do it now. Opex week is just extra crazy. Tuesday/next week may even out and provide days that a normal cut might maintain endure better/hold. (JIMHO). I'm kind of seeing last couple weeks have been like having a virus - now we got it, it might just have to run its course, -and thinking timing, strike with a cut, but when benefits will endure. I suppose I just talked myself into a plan! :o
Well, thanks for listening I guess (and again sorry)!

Appreciate letting me know if you guys have any additional thoughts (or see anything developing sooner).

Nnutt,
Change of plans:
30C, 30S, 20I
-"forget" Ben, PPT, especially "forget" Tracy Ray - hoping we just put in an M&A (small "A")
:D
 
Just got back from Training, Missed the deadline and have hardly no Bandwidth today, slow as XMAS. Still 100% "F".
 
No biggee - actually feels risky as heck. So much uncertainty. Maybe capitulation?
Its a weak M&A pattern at best. Actually the M is huge, well defined - its the A that may not even really be an A (but thought I'd give it a shot).
