Thanks for that AR.
Was a seven wave down on the S&P500...not even the dumbest Elliot Waver can count that as an impulse lower. So, that's not great for the bearsish case. But, it's just a corrective move up.
I think the 21 day MA is going to be a tougher nut to crack for the bulls.
1398 looks like good resistance to me....
That's the 61.8% retrace and the small a=c up from the most recent lows.
The SMA(21) is definitely resistance. But "1400" will be the real bear killer. Algos probably set to "bear smash" once that is crossed.
I spy rbob cracks getting ROCKED last several days. Seasonal peak is in on the gasoline/oil.
Right on cue.
you mean we aren't going to run out this year either Andy?
Yeah,
In another shocking development, we are not going to run out of gasoline.
Those damn speculators ensured, once again, that the market found the price that "cleared" the market....
Real shocker to me.
Oh...and yeah...those f'ng EVIL wrongdoing speculators also drove the price of natty gas to supercyle lows....reviving the entire US Industrial/manufacturing sector.
I guess those are the 'good' kinds of speculators...vs. the 'bad' guys.
Very Orwellian...
...that TICK reading of 1410 caught my attention (@11:55 on a five minute chart).
just depends on the asset class
speculators that drive the right kind of commods down are "good"
speculators that drive stocks up are "good"
speculators that drive bond yields down, also mostly "good", at least for now
speculators that drive the dollar down.....
uhhh....wait a minute, we're getting into the uncomfortable part of the conversation here aren't we...its seems there is a contradiction
where's Obama to figure this out for us?
Which way should speculators drive the dollar Obama?..... and be careful now with that answer, wouldn't want to go disrupting the "preferred" speculative outcomes
Gundlach seems to believe the debt ceiling becomes a major issue around September
that'll be good timing for the election, as it wasn't be design to "happen again that fast"
hence Timmay's panic while making the tv rounds this weekend
If I were Obama, well, who am I kidding, I'd go on vacation......every two months or so you know
b22
Every time Timmay's on tv you know there is a problem and that they're trying to control the flow of information.
ol' TTT, what a disgrace that that 'dude' is, actually, SecTreas..
Reason, alone, to understand the *Concepr of..

This is so weird. TICKS have been churning between 300-700 consistently and the market is lower. Does TICKS up Market down indicate dumping?
Germany upmarket auto firm Audi (IW 1000/79) , owned by Volkswagen (IW 1000/10), said April 18 it is to buy Ducati, the Italian maker of some of the most sought after high-speed motorcycles in the industry.
"The deal will be completed as soon as possible after it is cleared by the authorities," Audi said in a statement.
It did not give financial details but press reports put the price at around $1.12 billion.
The deal will give Volkswagen an entry into the top-end motorcycle market, taking on its auto rival, BMW (IW 1000/37).
Ducati, established in Bolgna, northern Italy in 1926, is famous for its high-speed road and racing bikes, of which it sold 42,000 last year worth 480 million euros.
Investindustrial, an investment fund, has controlled the company since 2006 with a 70% stake.

Argentina drought leads to 40 percent crop losses
Estimate for harvest year at 20.8 million metric tons
Release Date: Monday, April 16, 2012
The six-week drought in December 2011 and January 2012 that hit Argentina's crop fields led to losses of up to 40 percent in some areas, according to the country's government.
In key corn-growing area Bragado, Buenos Aires province, early-planted fields are being harvested with yields coming in at 2,000 to 5,000 kilos per hectare, said Argentina's weekly crop report. Nearly half of Bragado's 2011–2012 corn has been collected at an average yield of 4,500 kilo per hectare. Some early-planted corn fields in Rio Cuarto, Cordoba province, are so thin that farmers have decided not to harvest them. The province's late-planted corn is developing normally, except in western Rio Cuarto, which was affected by frost in early April.
The current total 2011–2012 corn crop estimate is at 20.8 million metric tons, according to the Buenos Aires Grains Exchange.

Argentina should be practicing their rain dance routine instead of nationalizing foreign companies.
