A place where a skillful caddy always offers cool contemplation when it comes to your "stick" selection
WTH happened in the last half hour?
SPXDoji day again (more indecision). Still is possible start of evening star (just a day late). 1078.87 (fibo 1.618 from low) is still waiting for retest. Closed above the 21 SMA and above the 233 SMA. Midpoint now above 10EMA. Back above the trendline using 2010 lows & the 3/6/09-5/25/10 trendline. New high on daily 3LB (reversal now 1086.84). Not confirming the monthly 3LB reversal (it's a long month). QE2infinity.

LUMBERWeekly view of lumber. All you'll need to know about the housing market. Can't have an economic recovery without a housing recovery and this chart says expect a "double dip".

H & S on the silver chart....
but gold RALLYING, and ABOUT TO BREAK OUT TO NEW HIGHS...
Which one of these PMs is telling PORKY PIES?
Here is my two cents:
We are either going much higher - like 1130-1150 high.
OR
WE are going much lower - like minor 3 low.
Or ... its Friday, world cup is on, and the chop monster makes an appearance tomorrow

Gold not high in CAD or Rupee.
So DGDF?
The longer shadow usually points in the direction the market wants to go (unless there's a helping hand).
sorry LB, you can't have my gold...at that price
Added a weekly chart for Lumber. Ouch. Housing is headed down...hard.
411,000 newly unemployed at the end of July. And I bet they haven't visited Leftback's mansion and recorded his vital statistics.
....Lefty, how about it? I hear all the census workers up where you live look like Angelina Jolie???
Wealthy families in Europe in Gold, treasuries, and cash -www.financialpost.com
"Wealthy families up gold buys: Investment managers".
"Companies that manage money for the wealty , called family offices, focus more on preserving wealth than large investment gains. When the credit crunch crisis hit, they shifted into safe assest including treasuries, cash and gold".
Bought ets and miners.
Hugh Hendry said increase gold allocation - but donot buy shares.
"Even the cab drivers are talking about buying gold now...".
So Gold down from here?
Who's left to buy?
Through for the evening. Thanks for the lumber chart Amen...the kid who needs the land for truck farming finally signed the contract and I don't have to cut all the hay again this year. Hallleeluuuuuujah!
Stories from the globe and mail.com/report on business:
"Slide in shipping shows global recovery running out of steam". Baltic index down 15 consecutive days as raw material demand falters.
"China in no mood to discuss yuan appreciation".
"Gold breaks another record". so did Tips etf.
CPI numbers are cooked. Garbage in garbage out. Inflation in things you need is high. Food, fuel, insurance etc.

NY Public Library Worker : $189K.
I like Boston to cover the spread (-7) tonight.
-AT
Anonymous- The TIPS strength is entirely attributable to the general rally in US Treasury securities. Implied inflation rates are actually down slightly from the beginning of 2010.

Great show last night. I meant to post it this morning before I went out. Devo performs at the end.
Great game. Congrats again to the Lakers.
Now back to business. Those two dojis on the SPX are ominous. Either it's about to take off or crash hard. Opinions?
@ Anon, Thanks.
Did anyone notice the 3% fall in Copper last night?

>> Lefty, how about it? I hear all the census workers up where you live look like Angelina Jolie???
Wow, where's that?? I bet no one mails in their forms. Gotta make the census workers come a'knocking.
Gold ... making a run and eating the shorts stops above the highs.
See if this new high brings the buyers in when the fear seems to have subsided (for now)
Nic
What about those institutions that hold massive short positions?
Yeah they are feeling the steel ...
and will no doubt be selling more
Germany Serbia could be setting up to be an upset ...
2nd half would be very interesting. They will manage a draw at least.

I just want to see how they are going to play it when the next contract nears expiration.
