guess we are going to top that today.
anyone noticing that 'WikiLeaks' is the new, new "Goldstein" (ref. 1984)
(AP:NEW YORK) The website for MasterCard is back up after being inaccessible for much of Wednesday, likely the result of attacks by supporters of WikiLeaks.
MasterCard had pulled the plug on its relationship with the organization.
MasterCard says credit cards were not affected and account data has not been placed at risk.
By early afternoon, MasterCard's site was once again operational. But on its Twitter feed the group that claimed responsibility for the attacks appeared to be preparing for its next target, Visa.
Like MasterCard, Visa Inc. had also stopped processing donations to WikiLeaks on Tuesday. Visa says its site is functioning normally.

Cant even get on V's site... LOL.
Its hard fighting truth...
Who said bonds are boring...?
It has been a remarkable week, and it's only Wednesday. Sometimes the best thing one can do is to leave the building before it burns down. The carnage in Treasuries and total market bond funds has been something this week. Meanwhile, HY has been relatively untouched.
There may be some more downside to come in Treasuries, as there is a PPI number out next Tuesday that could be quite hot. Sell ahead of the PPI, buy on the CPI is a likely way this plays out. In any case, nobody is going charging in until we see tomorrow's auction of 30y Ts.
As far as the bonds are concerned, I'd be looking to reload on that uptrend.
If you look at the long bond daily chart, it just looks like drift down to a 50% retrace.
This doesnt look like a meltdown in the bonds... that will come at some point, but not now.
If I were a macro cat, I'd be getting in bonds here, and probably be long a little USD, and some SPX, maybe a hair in one of the wild softs or grains. Screw the PMs for now, wait until they are puking to buy those.
Now, I will say that while the bid has been there on the ES/YM, it isnt the strong bid of The Hand, and there seems to be a bit of selling.
Longtimers banking gains into year end is what I'm thinking.
I really dont think it makes sense to fade equities here though. I think you'll get chopped.
Just ramblings...
I dont trade bonds tho, and that chart looks a little hairier the more I look at it.
What do yall think of the aud?
Its looking strong to the I...
A few Macro cats on a well known Macro blog are thinking it's time for the Long UST:Short Gold pairs trade about now.
A few old hands in FI trading have already been easing into TIP, usually bounces before the rest of the complex. Agree completely with this being purely a retrace of the monster move up prior to the QE2 setting sail. This is not a meltdown in bonds, any more than in 2009. Prices of more junky offerings have sailed along happily all week.
No need to rush, a lot of inwestors who own AGG, BND, LQD, MUB etc. have been burned these last two weeks and there will be some of them still heading for the exits, and the rate risk is not quite over yet. Next week's PPI could be a bit of a shocker, it contains a lot of embedded cumulative materials price increases at this point.
Completely neutral on equities, but a wary eye on China's activities tomorrow night. Shorting PMs and miners, anyone?
AUD could be kneecapped if China tightens.
AUDUSD charts looking as weak as the Aussie cricket team....
