Morning Corner 9.13.11

ATHEN (weekly info)
-no change (below mid)
trend=down
low= 880.08
rev= 1062.00; mid= 971.04


It appears the Greece stock is starting to reflect Greece's CDS. If the 1 yr CDS is over 100% (111 to be exact)) the market probably should be closer to zero. It's below all SMA's. The trend down of the weekly 3LB is continuing. Any talk of rescuing Greece should be met with skepticism.



FT MIB (weekly info)
new low 14020.18
trend=down
low= 14020.18
rev= 16015.87; mid= 15018.03


No wonder there was a rumor about China stepping in to help Italy. It's stock market is rapidly approaching the 0.0% retrace made on the week ending 3/6/09. Obviously it's below all SMA's. They say you shouldn't move around too much if you get caught in quicksand. Well, Italy keeps flailing around.



PSI (weekly info)
-no change (below mid)
trend=no
direction=up (1 bar)
high= 6339.00
rev= 6026.00; mid= 6182.50

All of this talk about Greece and Italy has taken the bullseye off Portugal. This gap lower on the weekly chart will put the bullseye back on it. It gapped below the 0.0% retrace. This gap down closes the gap higher from 5/1/09-5/8/09. It's below all SMA's. The ECB is going to be busy for the next few months.

Some of those even I don't have in chart form...yet.

Also... (note - more specifically to ben & Andy T)...

I'm not kidding here... It happens to be right...

If you FOLLOW the hotlinks on my blog TO Yahoo or ESPN (or wherever else your fantasy teams reside)... Believe it or not... You'll get to your teams & log-ins FASTER than if you try and navigate straight thru Yahoo Sports, ESPN, or NFL or CBS.com (which - on game day - remind me of how it used to be when I was trying to resolve a homepage back in the early 90's with a 386 processor & a 14.4 dial up modem)...

Bandwidth bitchez! (MAE East bitchez - y'all go ahead & look that one up for yourselves... My job on this planet isn't to teach you EVERYTHING, only 'some' things [by dropping clever hints - though sometimes a good ol cattle prod serves better - I've learned])...

cv said...

...and yes... if you missed it...

Ron Jaworski actually said "SHIT" on national television... (I thought I was hearing things at first)...

LOL... It was the highlight of my night (other than the PATRIOTS 'covering' the spread for % REAL UNITS for cv)...

cv said...

@Andy

No LOVE on the trade???

Got a counter offer???

cv said...

@Andy

U should have taken the deal...

Philly can't stop the run (Turner is gonna score 2 TD's this weekend)... then - you could trade him to someone else...

---

I know what you're thinking right now... Your MATCHUP looks solid & you don't need to make a move... But here's some unsolicited advice...

In FANTASY... "NEVER HESITATE TO GUARANTEE A WIN"... You THINK you're guaranteed here in this spot (but you're NOT)... Here's why...

- You're playing my brother... Not that that means anything (but it does)... He's NOT a fantasy 'tool'... The roster you're looking at TODAY will improve by the weekend - notionally...

- You're thinking... Nicks is dinged up... (He is - but the Giants can't afford a loss - he'll start against a team that gave up lots of yards to DeSean Jackson last week)...

- You're thinking (rightfully so), that the Chiefs suck (because cv has been saying this for a month now)... But they're going to get behind to the Lions... BOWE is going to get more 'cheap' yards than expected... I think the Chiefs may actually COVER that game...

- You're thinking... Chris Johnson isn't in game shape... THE PROBLEM is Munchak... CJ only had 9 carries at Jax... (cv 'joked' last week that CJ would need an IV at halftime - NO NEED - they 'protected' their inWestment - now they need WINS)... CJ is NOT Rashard Mendenhall...

- Wes Welker can 'duplicate' his performance in Miami (because SD will be without Luis Castillo)... I'm half sure that they'll even put him in for a punt return or two (in place of Edelman), because SD special teams suck...

- You're thinking... 'Cedric Benson'???... Benson is EQUALLY capable of duplicating Darren McFadden's performance against a Denver D that can't stop the run... Andy Dalton is out (which means Gradkowski will probably start)... Gradkowski KNOWS the Denver D from his days as a Raider QB... Also, it looks like Champ Bailey will be a game time decision...

BOTTOM LINE???

Oriole 4 is going to score more points than you think...

...MORE

cv said...

... Now YOU

I'm basically only asking you to give up Wallace for Turner (that's the Crux of the deal)...

- Wallace IS set for a big weekend (but it falls into ANOTHER of cv's fantasy 'wisdom points'... DON'T BET PAPER STATS...)...

Frankly, I think Wallace WILL have a big weekend (so you're right in keeping him)...

Otherwise, you have 3 RB/WR prospects who 'ought to' have solid weeks (he said OUGHT TO)... which goes back to DON'T BET PAPER STATS...

You have McCoy - Bradshaw - & Hightower...

I can't go against the argument that McCoy ought to do well (vis-a-vis 'Forte' last week) against what I think is a suspect Atlanta D... But I can't get out of my mind the idea that DOG KILLER Vick is so deranged that he's going to want to represent HIMSELF as a one man highlight film AT ATLANTA (on national TV)... McCoy may be the odd man out (which is a shame)...

Bradshaw plays on MNF (where typically - when the Giants play on MNF - he fumbles - & somehow Brandon Jacobs gets on the highlight reel)

Hightower?... Mr. FORMER FUMBLE... Playing vs. the team that 'cut' him because he fumbled too much... I dunno... It's a dice roll...

TAKE MICHAEL TURNER... He's the SAFE play... What you do with him 'afterwards' is up to your own cleverness & ingenuity... Are you the DONALD TRUMP type???... How are your negotiation skills???... ALWAYS REMEMBERING... TAKE THE WIN (when it's in front you)...

If you're wondering about the rest (like if you have the WR corps to put up points)...

Look - if you're like the rest of ZOMBIE NATION that think that Kerry Collins blows & therefore Reggie Wayne is toast... THINK AGAIN...

Did you watch the film of that TD pass (the ONLY one) that Collins tossed to RW in the end zone at Houston???... That can only be accomplished by an experienced QB throwing to a standout receiver...

Colts play thje Browns this week... Wayne will be covered by Joe Haden (a poor man's Darelle Revis), but Haden is not RIGHT, right now... He missed a couple of coverages against rookie AJ Green last week... Reggie Wayne is looking at that tape right now...

Me???

I'd be starting NATE BURLESON (& possibly even Matt Stafford) if I were GM of your team... BOTH of which were nominated in the trade... So now the 'cat' is out of the bag...

I'd be starting Burleson OVER Santonio Holmes (because Jax has to travel to the Meadowlands - where the Jets - not playing from behind - will be trying to establish Shonn Greene - who was absent last week playing from a 14 point hole)...

I'd probably even start a COLSTON-less Lance Moore over Holmes (except that I'd be worried that Brian Urlacher might punch his lights out)...

Mike Thomas & Javon Ringer???... What are THEY still doing on your squad???

Janikowski??? LMFAO... I gotta say... Hitting a 63 yarder (I think) ended up to be the difference in beating the ****LIPS (which - after the draft - WHICH WAS AN AUTOPICK for CV - I was MOST IN FEAR OF for this league)...

He'll probably 'shank' 2 @Buffalo (because West Coast teams travel HORRIBLY to play 1:00 on the East Coast (trust me on this)...

are the Tampa Bay DevilDogs going to catch the Yankees, in the AL East?

how 'bout the RedSox, for the Wildcard?

cv said...

Bottom line...?

Never take anything ON PAPER for granted...

&... ALWAYS PLAY THE GAME IN FRONT OF YOU...

NEVER manage 'the season' (the only exception is when the GAME IN FRONT OF YOU has hardly any chance of winning - which happens in BYE weeks)...

Andy T said...

S&P500 short term trading bears sort of against the wall right here.

What a grind of a market....

red sox look "turrible"

cv said...

@AAIP

CV 'likes' your aptitude & verve for baseball...

I got ANOTHER story to tell...

It TIES IN with my story above about how Andy T is playing CV's 'brother' in FF this week...

My bro is no fantasy fool... You have to PLAY THE GAME (before the result becomes final)...

In my FANTASY BASEBALL league last week... CV 'went down to the wire' (vs. my bro) in an EPIC... I mean TRULY EPIC duel...

In the end... the MATCHUP came down to a result which was 7-7 (a tie)... My BRO won (only because of the tiebreak system which was in effect)...

But it all came down (the WHOLE DAMNED SEASON) came down to a few pitches here and there in the Phillies vs. Brewers game Sunday afternoon...

****ING EPIC...

IMO - It's the way things SHOULD be (in all things)...

It's a game of inches... (mostly... the SIX INCHES... in front of your face [& cv might add - for that matter are NOT in your mouth])...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WO4tIrjBDkk

...no offense to anyone who happens to like any randomness of '6 inches-ness' in their mouths at ANY GIVEN SUNDAY (or time)...

OH SNAP! said...

...OMG... The S&P seems like it wants to 'triangulate' (respecting the levels which Andy T illustrated the other day)...

UN-BE-****-INGLY BELIEVABLE!!!

Although it's taken OVER A EFFIN YEAR for you readers here to figure it out...

The S&P is a FRIGGIN JOKE (movements [at least - WHEN POSSIBLE] orchestrated by a collection of interested parties...

U might as well all take an interest in something else...

HOW ABOUT POLITICS???

That would be cool...

I think there's a blog called anonymous traders (or another one run by a Wall Streeter [who actually BLOGS... to amplify his 'liberal' coolness] that will captivate you as to why you need to be RIVETED to this day to day dynamic...

OBAMA 2012!!!!
