Weather maps show thunderstorms on its route.

Finder's fee ? How much per finger, when multiplying per million neurons at work, and dividing by the Nas value when/if YOU'll post the 77777 number, due shortly...

You have to wait for the Euro top fund managers, bankers to come back from lunch. About the same as your 2.22...

Possibly the same wines too. But that may soon change.

They all know. That's why de Villepin offered next March 14 as Blix reporting...

You didn't provide the 26 Billion landing fees yet, for they have not been accepted!

Intel to upgrad Arizona plant to 300 mm at 2B$ cost.

Yup 8 million card numbers hacked, as per WashFXnews. The card issuers bear financial reponsibility for eventual stolen monies. Origin of attack still said as unknown. Mainly Visa and Master.

Debka preview of Bin's on el Jazeera : "" Those who did not understand my message sent in New York and Washington after your previous crimes, and because you are about to attack( he did not say whom), in the name of Allah, I will strike.""

Not AH, but the EURUSD took a .2% hit within the minute.

As per Debka, a few minutes ago, Irak is expelling 68 foreign correspondents tonight.

""I am not sure I like the company..."" Bet you can get better company. You'd only have to offer Saddam some solid state physics tips, and I am sure he'd grant you with six dozen virgins and as many rugs.

Hi Zeev. De Gaulle in full steam...? Last time she broke her propellor in the mid atlantic at twenty knots or so. Then, she'll have to stop in Jibouti for a pastis with the boys (foreign legion), then she'll wait for orders, read US/FR negociations.

Anyway, her runway is too short...

At best they'll be making croissants for you guys when the war starts. Just like they did during last year Afghani campain, with their two ships in the Indian Ocean.

I got the info (military secret) from the French cooks of both Man of war, after a couple of beers, very late at night, in a dark ME pub, when the could no more doubt my patriotism...

So the whole financial community has made the bet on a second resolution on Irak, while I think the primary subject (target?) will be N Korea.

Crazy dance USD/JPY and EUR these minutes. Only possible explanation PPT buying USD or a crisis end.

A ramp up ? Like B 52 ?

Look how much time it took the market to go south. Are day traders doing siesta now ?

Bush is to speak in an hour and the market is calm. Amazing.

The $ just pushed higher in the last 30 minutes, as to counter your prediction, even more so that Putin and Chirak just said fifteen minutes ago that Irak solution has to be diplomatic only.

Gold and euro crashed as Powell went on because :

1/ His case was good enough for the US not to be alone out there.
2/ Too many people were simply short on the $.

But as you suggest, the move should have been reverse, as the Irak timetable was just pushed further, thus adding to uncertainty and nervousness.

That's my take at least. (but I didn't miss a minute!)

Irrational behavior ? Collective hysteria ? Or more simply, another wrong analysis of mine ?

Another two days, at most, will tell.

And the Euro almost +2% to USD. ChIrak and Schroeder know what they are doing...

I think that this low consumer figure includes last Saturday, when the whole world was in mourning/TV mode.

Hi all. Each futur shuttle pilot has to succeed in every one of a thousand gliding missions aboard a Swedish Sabre jet whose wings have been clipped off and whose engines are on reverse, as to give the plane a 22° angle of descent.
From the inside on a plane, a 10° looks and feels like an 80°...

Apparently Microsoft never made a flight simulator for us guys. May be now, they will.

No problem with Infinity. We claim no priority.eom.

Hi Professor Reserve! Why so much in a day? eom.

Happy and quiet New Year, America !

Torquemada would have pyred you for a half that post.;^)

Haaretz flash, minutes ago: intel just got gov grant for four(4) billion $ for chip plant in Kiriat Gat.

Hi Zeev. I often wonder if you follow the charts or if the charts follow you...

OT: I have been partially busy lately searching for that "moral compass" you were writing so well about with Augieboo, a few months back; and I think I found a thin thread to hold on to, one that will give me the will to finally sit down and write that patent that I was ready to type... since February.

No problem at all, besides FADG on "vacation" till monday.

Thanks phill. Quite convincing.

Zeev, and what would be the point of industrialists investing in machines to make products people won't be able to buy ?

After all, industrialists have enough instincts and knowledge proved over history that tell them when their customers will be solvent.

So, isn't the snake eating its tail here, and that's the core of our collective problem ?

Yes Doktor : the Hysterioniks should be low on adrenaline by now.

And the PPT cavalry shot a full hour Long wild ride to save all, but now they are into the saloon for some Pepsi.
Beware, if the gulp some whisky with it play poker and French cancan, they'll just start shooting at the wrong guys.
Again.

Yes: the Congress is openning the Doors of War.

Big Minute-traders' not Day-traders' market.

Did I read you right ?

Anti Gravity = Allan Greenspan.
Hubble = Bubble.
Accelerating Collapse = Abbey Cohen.
Longshoremen soon = Fishermen.

Fox just reported that Bushie orders court to look into the harbours mess.

Not so late Zeev, to comment on the following :

I have never seen so much doom and gloom here; however yesterday afternoon, you did predict that the probability for a run to 1100 was rather high... and times and again before, you did write that rallies will not last more than two days, if ever, till 22+-2 etc.

And it all made a lot of sense.

So, or we get good news : on the MD killings, containers stuck, Irak, rate cuts, Co announcements, $, balance of payments etc, or we sail down the Stix to Softechieland.
