TRADERS ANONYMOUS: Morning Corner 2.17.11

Morning Corner 2.17.11

Rough Rice (weekly info)
new high 15.89
trend=no
direction=up (2 bars)
high= 15.89
rev= 13.70; mid= 14.80

This week rough rice is getting sold HARD. It's only Wednesday and it's already below the weekly 3LB mid. Weekly pattern has formed an evening star. It still is above all SMA's. I wonder if China is somehow involved in the sell off.

Coffee (weekly info)
new high 251.65
trend=up
high=251.65
rev= 240.50; mid= 246.08

Coffee is still getting more expensive. At least it hasn't broken above the trend line. If it does then Starbucks may have to change its name to Starchange.

SPX/Gold Ratio (monthly info)
-no change (above mid)
low= 0.7663
rev= 1.0700; mid= 0.9182

This ratio is back above its monthly mid and the weekly is trending up. The last time is made it above the mid was in April 2009. From this one can see that even if the SPX gets back to 1500 its value is still far off the peak. Using the high from July 99 of 5.5933 and todays gold price ($1375.10) the SPX would have to be at $7691.35 to be comparable. Or gold would have to be $238.91. Think either of these will happen anytime soon?

The Bears may have to break out "The Final Getsuga Tenshou" to get this market to correct...

Obama budget plan shows interest owed on national debt quadrupling in next decade

"Starting in 2014, net interest payments will surpass the amount spent on education, transportation, energy and all other discretionary programs outside defense. In 2018, they will outstrip Medicare spending. Only the amounts spent on defense and Social Security would remain bigger under the president's plan."

MERS Exits Stage Left, Tells Members Not To Foreclose In MERS' Name

After the MERS Valentine's Day Massacre, previously reported on Zero Hedge, where Judge Robert Grossman found that MERS has no right to transfer mortgages, the company appears to have proceeded with the logical next step: professional Harakiri. In an announcement sent out to all MERS Members, the company stated that according to a proposed amendment to Membership Rule 8, it will require "members not to foreclose in MERS' name." MERS is seeking comments in a 90-day period, but since this is a directive driven from external judicial decision(s), it is unlikely that MERS members' opinions will matter at all. Basically MERS may have just exited the US mortgage scene, stage left, for good.; February 17, 2011 at 8:22 AM

A fixed income analyst to be named later said...: Hi chaps and chapesses,

We are back from a brush with death, aka the flu. Well, the non-event of the day was the market's reaction to the 0.8/0.4 PPI/CPI one-two punch. Why no reaction you might ask? All priced in.

This gives us greater confidence in our macro model for Treasuries, on which our entire market strategy is based. So far the 4.6-4.8% band for 30y has not been violated and the decision to buy heavily on entering the zone appears to be vindicated.

Now does anyone want to buy a large hedge position that isn't green?

BTW, the answer to the STRIPS question (zero coupon bonds) is yes, now that we have clearly put in a bottom, next time we have a flare-up in yields, absolutely. We suspect that yields will be range bound for a while so you could play TBT from one extreme and ZROZ or UBT from the other extreme.

FOX News Creates Fraudulent Video to Discredit Ron Paul

As Paul Joseph Watson of PrisonPlanet writes:

In a shocking act of mass public deception, Fox News attempted to skew Ron Paul’s 2011 CPAC straw poll win by representing it with footage from the previous year’s CPAC event, at which Mitt Romney supporters had loudly booed the result, another example of the continuing dirty tricks campaign being waged against Paul by the establishment media.

Congressman Paul replicated his 2010 victory over Mitt Romney by defeating the former Governor of Massachusetts for a second consecutive year at the annual CPAC conference.

However, before anchor Bill Hemmer introduced a segment concerning the story, Fox News played a clip of the 2010 announcement of the poll results, during which Mitt Romney supporters had loudly booed Ron Paul’s victory, passing off last year’s footage as representative of this year’s event.

Hemmer then proceeded to state, “In the end he was the winner, probably not the reaction he was hoping for,” describing the reaction as “mixed applause and boos,” before directly asking Ron Paul if he knew who was booing him.

Now, watch the video:

Jamie Dimon's `Biggest Disaster' Is Waiting: Simon Johnson

"If shareholders are protected from being wiped out by the implicit too-big-to-fail guarantee, they should welcome the arrival of additional leverage as the economy improves. In fact, as the latest quarterly earnings results appear, the financial press has started to ask Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and other banks why they don’t increase their leverage even more.

Top bankers are also pressing hard for the right to increase dividend payments. That’s effectively a transfer from creditors and taxpayers tomorrow (because of the guarantee) to shareholders today."

Inventories are kept extremely well managed and tight thanks to the amazing efficiency of modern-day transportation and manufacturing systems. Depending on your age, you might remember when grocery stores had excess stock and inventory in the “back room.” Those days are long gone. If the “just in time” trucks stop rolling for any reason, your local grocery store will be empty within days, and that’s even in good times!

If a disaster were to strike – natural or manmade – you could expect those shelves to be bare within hours. The recent blizzards and snowstorms blanketing the United States are a perfect example of why it pays to be prepared. When you watch the news and the weatherman says a life-threatening cold front is coming your direction with 15" of snow, or a hurricane is forming, do you: ..."

The euro has been performing well as it was able to hold onto the 1.35 level, and push to 1.3585. Of note, the ECB saw the highest level of emergency overnight borrowing in 20 months last night. Banks tapped the ECB for EUR 15 bln last night (average slightly less than ECB 1 bln usually). The number has been chalked up to operation issues, but should still be closely watched."; February 17, 2011 at 1:28 PM

EWI is very close to capitulation, in last nights short term update they labeled the alternative in their chart as Wave V

wavers will understand the significance of that

if EWI flips bullish I'd tell you all to move all-in short immediately!

Bonds looking a bit more constructive but still not out of the woods from where I'm sitting.

that H&S is one of the finest examples I have ever seen, form, prices, volume,... all textbook

problem though is that the neckline is so far below by the time it's broken we'd have already missed a huge trade.

I still don't want to be short until I can see some weakness. Neely is shorting into strength with tight stops each time, I'm just playing it safer for now.

It's really bothering me that the dollar hasn't broken out yet. It hasn't gone below my get the hell out point either but when was the last time you saw this much chaos on the world and no flows to the dollar....it's strange, seems like people are buying gold and silver instead.

"...You have created a progressive debt singularity so immense that no amount of fiat, no amount of taxation, no amount of austerity could ever satiate its hunger. You now have the perfect excuse to print the dollar with wild abandon until its withered, corpsified remains are six feet underground, leaving the door wide open for the tap dancing fast-talking SDR to take its place.

The issue is, how do you convince the general public that all is well until you are ready to unleash hyperinflation and fiscal Armageddon? How do you make them believe with all their hearts that they are not in the midst of a debt meltdown and the end of their financial sovereignty, but basking in a full-on economic recovery?!

You can’t stop wealth destruction now that the avalanche has been set in motion. You can’t stop inflation and dollar devaluation (nor would you want to. Hey, you’re evil incarnate, remember?). The effects on mainstreet are beyond your ability to hide, but, what you CAN manipulate, are the statistics and indices that Americans rely on for psychological comfort. You give everyone a blindfold and a cigarette and you do what you do best; lie!

Here is a step by step guide to fabricating an economic recovery out of thin air…..."

I want you to tell me how to profit offer a dollar collapse with gold.

this guy runs 4 day spas in West Chester, PA, he told me also that he knows "nothing about the markets"

It was an interesting meeting to say the least.

My own mother has called me recently concerned about the dollar, my mom is financially illiterate.

I promise you, I speak with more regular people than you do every single week, if you don't think a lot of folks aren't aware that our currency has serious problems I think you are just completely wrong.

and when I'm talking about EVERYONE I'm talking about market pundits stating such things, the "pros" people pushing money around that actually matters in the markets, if you can find me more than 5 analysts that are bullish the dollar right now I'll eat my words.

Good luck.

"...According to today's New York Times, The "majority of hamburger" now sold in the U.S. now contains fatty slaughterhouse trimmings "the industry once relegated to pet food and cooking oil," "typically including most of the material from the outer surfaces of the carcass" that contains "larger microbiological populations."

This "nasty pink slime," as one FDA microbiologist called it, is now wrung in a centrifuge to remove the fat, and then treated with AMMONIA to "retard spoilage," and turned into "a mashlike substance frozen into blocks or chips".

Thus saving THREE CENTS a pound off production costs. And making the company, Beef Products Inc., a fortune. $440 million/year in revenue. Ain't that something?

And to emphasize: this pink slime isn't just in fast food burgers or free lunches for poor kids:

With the U.S.D.A.'s stamp of approval, the company's processed beef has become a mainstay in America's hamburgers. McDonald's, Burger King and other fast-food giants use it as a component in ground beef, as do grocery chains. The federal school lunch program used an estimated 5.5 million pounds of the processed beef last year alone.."

interesting, we are getting close to the deadline of that scary neely prediction of an "event" and I don't think he was talking about the tv show.

Bob,

I first read CTC by Prechter about one year after I got out of college, at that time he was warning that the longer this dragged out the harder it would be to open foreign bank accounts and the US would start to restrict your ability to do this or tax you heavily any time you tried to move money out of the country. Some of the things he advised in the first CTC book are no longer found in the updated version because they aren't available anymore.

this is the whole purpose of setting up the gold money account and now I use two of their overseas storage facilities, it's smart to get some of your money out of here now, as I'm to understand some laws will go into effect in 2013 that will stop you from being able to open certain accounts overseas or tax you heavily if you do.

not to go on too much about it as it's the type of thing that is considered "advice" but it's prudent to look into this imo.

The market shrugged off the PPI/CPI double whammy of 0.8/0.4, which means that was already priced in, as well as lingering worries about the US deficit and debt. This suggests that there are other things to worry about and that return of capital is becoming a factor in asset allocation.

Munis also had a good day, as there is just a tiny bit of unease creeping into the markets. But maybe it is just ourselves, maybe everything is for the best, in the best of all possible worlds.....

Corpies: LQD 0.23%; AGG 0.26%; JNK 0.04%; HYG 0.20%
Govies: TLT 0.13%; IEI 0.28%; TIP 0.38%
Munis: IQI 0.68%; MUB 0.59%
Mortgages: MBB 0.13%
Specialty: ZROZ -0.27%; TBT -0.32%

We remain about 45% long fixed income. We did have a hedge on, but we removed the hedge after the inflation data failed to move the needle at the long end. We re-entered our EM short and added to it. Follow the sick antelope and you will find the hyenas ready to eat.

We are not going to crow about the success of our macro model which called for 30y yields to peak between 4.60% and 4.80%. OK, we are. We see range-bound yields until it is obvious that the inflation meal has worked its way through the python. That could be months.
