The Daily Note - A Grinch in Our Midst?

Having checked in daily to see the trends it seems we may have a Grinch in our midst to some, but I doubt it the case. No, not because I'm long but because what some think as OK in our world economy is really a house made of paper.

The housing that the current bubble burst upon was at least made of something concrete and to many it was shelter. But the current paper printing is built on nothing. Not even gold. The Chinese know this. We are long past our ability to meet our debts in monetary value and in GDP value.

What's the evidence? Congress had to extend the debt limit by $280 billion. When asked if it was feasible not to, it was told that with out debt we'd last 7 minutes without the extension.
Think about it ..7minutes.

What else? Well, FNM and FRE are asking for $440 BILLION each. Why would they need that if everything is doing so well.

What's coming? Do as we are told by a world economy which still has no realization that this rich country's death is their own demise too. Except perhaps for one, which has slowly accumulated property everywhere along with its gold; it's a Grinch all right, but one perhaps without the capacity of a large generous heart. Yet in this world which ultimately follows rules of survival, it is as it should be.



______________________________

The PLAY LIST of which there is only one or two. If you watch the S&P it's still the same story:

I posted this earlier today on StockTwits but we have already sliced through it:



What's next is 10231 area and below is the 9800 I mentioned a while back. Will it happen this year or next? I have no crystal ball and I don't wish doom and gloom. If I'm wrong, I'll be elated, if I'm right, I'll be prepared.

The Daily Note - The 3 Rs

I stated a week ago, Monday, that I will be taking a holiday from trading, starting this week, until the beginning of the year. Being a trader, however, it is important to keep abreast of the markets. Of course it's also difficult to stay away from a trading day when it's in ones blood, and one measures their pulse by it.

So, although on Holiday, I will be checking in from time to time during the next two weeks. I may post a trade or two, but will mostly be just be a periodic observer, since my first focus will be that of rest, relaxation and reflection. For me, it's a good time to prepare for the coming year since the markets get slow.

The 3 Rs (rest, relaxation, reflection) allow me to focus on what was and what can be, from which I make two lists: 1. A list of what I want to leave behind, in other words things that I may no longer need nor want in my life, and 2. A list of things I wish to bring or allow into my life. Once I complete this list, I burn the past letting it go and I release the future into the Universe on New Year's Eve by tying my list to a balloon. It's an annual "ritual",which I guess would make it the 4 Rs.

Count among the reflections THE PLAY LIST from Friday:

The Daily Note - TGIF Christmas Thoughts

Well, it's TGIF day, and usually I am suspect of any big moves to carry the day. Many usually putter out by mid-day and I suspect today won't be much different, except that it is one less week to go before the Christmas holiday. I suspect most traders have made plans and are well on their way to the place of their choice mentally. Christmas Carols are beginning to wave through my brain which always sets my mood to festive mode. Perhaps it's time to share a tune or two
