Thanks GF, was debating wether to hold TZA and VXX overnight. Took profits, hate to get gapped out of them.

Streettalk Live HERE COMES THE POMO PUMP! While the financial media trumpeted the dismal July Existing Home Sales as the prime reason for the early stock market carnage, the reality is SPUs tanked during European trading.A rumor that a ‘large macro fund’ had blown up contributed to the European decline.Merrill saved the market by buying 1200 SPUs af...ter they broke 1050. The reason for the spike bottom in SPUs is the NY Fed injected $1.35B of ‘permanent’ reserves (POMO - Permanent Open Market Operations) into the system, ostensibly to prevent stocks from tanking…Please note the release time of the NY Fed announcement. SPUs bottomed at 10:01 ET. Prop traders and wise guys knew about the scheme well before results were posted.

Operation: Iraqi Freedom, Mission accomplished!! We bombed Iraq back into a third world country and they are fighting amongst themselves. Now we are only fighting 1 war - look out Iran. Worst part is they think they can run the same BS they did in the Iraq ramp up.
market flat, VXX near HOD

Creos, you can get 3 day trades in 5 days (unless you already FU). Look for a good swing, use your few day trades to bail if it heads the wrong way or take profit if it really runs that day. Just be careful and don't hit 4 trades.
SPG reports 7/30 AVB 8/3
hmmm SRS
was just looking at srs - just off it's all time low
Wow! that would be great. Not much demand for that kind of stuff on the net 30-40 years later. Thanks
Any good online resources, you know about? I've tried to find some info on my dad, too. He was head of the IRS Intelligence Div. in Tampa, in the late 60's. He put together the cases against Santo Trafficante and Frank Ragano. When he and Ted got together, it was some great story telling time.
Yea, he was one bad ass mo fo. One stretch he spent 3 months offshore with a bunch of Columbians.
Never have found anything else about him online. I think he got a presidential award after finally going to trial and blowing his cover. They gave him a new id and moved the family to Austin for about 10 years then went back under cover out of Houston/Galveston.

My deceased cousin Ted Weed, that was his real name, was an undercover DEA agent. As "Nick the Greek" he became the largest off loader of marijauna in the country in the 80's. At least that's what he thought, anyway. Had many conversations with him about it.
I'm sure there are. I'm also pretty sure they can afford their own ranches and tunnels and fleets of tractor trailers and submarines and plenty of bribe money.
Please understand that the initial reason for running our story was to avoid any potential for rumor spreading. Those claiming that New Patriot Journal is spreading lies and rumors are false. We sought confirmation of a denial from the authorities involved. As of yet, we have not been able to get that confirmation. Until that point, this writer stands by her investigating and her story.
watching VXX vs VIX,and SPY. Some big divergences even when market was sideways. Anybody predict the immediate future market direction from this?
There is looming up a new and dark power... the enterprises of the country are aggregating vast corporate combinations of unexampled capital, boldly marching, not for economical conquests only, but for political power.... The question will arise and arise in your day, though perhaps not fully in mine, which shall rule, wealth or man; which shall lead, money or intellect; who shall fill public stations, educated and patriotic freemen, or the feudal serfs of corporate capital?
~ Edward G. Ryan, Chief Justice, Wisconsin Supreme Court, 1873
Naw, it's much easier to go down to the corner and bust a few crackheads. Plus your conviction rates look really good. "Vote for me - I'm tough on crime." Unless of course you're a war criminal, breaking pension funds or creating the worst environmental disaster ever.
Got to love it. CIA has to hire an outside contractor to protect them. What a freakin sad joke. I WANT THE TAXES I PAID BACK NOW< DAMMIT
But do you have a sound system like this one?

Busy day for you, sorry I missed most of it
What's geauxing on - early bird go back to bed?
I guess that means pozn drops another 25%
Listened to the story on the radio this morning - outnumbered 3 to 1, armed with old French muskets(range of 30 yds) against new rifles (200 yds)and not enough of them to go around. General Ignacio Zaragoza had his men on a hill behind a wall and made his men stay down not look at the advancing modern army, flashing their bayonets to drumbeats and bugles. The French taunted and laughed and called them names, but Zargoza would not let them look up. Finally, when the French army was within 50 yds, Zaragoza rode his white stallion in front of the French and yelled stand up and fire. The Mexicans stood up and fired the old muskets, the balls going through 2-3 Frenchmen, who fell and rolled back down the hill tangling up the soldiers behind them. The French regrouped and advanced again, while the Mexicans reloaded. Once again when they got in range, they fired again and charged down the hill after the French.
Great story.
Happy Cinco De Mayo
Ignacio Seguín Zaragoza (March 24, 1829 – September 8, 1862) was a Mexican general best known for his 1862 defeat of invading French forces in the Battle of Puebla on May 5 (the Cinco de Mayo).
Zaragoza was born in the town of Presidio de la Bahía del Espíritu Santo in what what was then the Mexican province of Texas, now the city of Goliad, Texas. Young Ignacio studied in the seminary of Matamoros, then moved to Monterrey.
During Mexico's political unrest of the 1850s Zaragoza joined the army supporting the cause of Mexico's Liberal Party, opposing dictator Antonio López de Santa Anna. He played a part in several important victories which led to the reestablishment of a constitutional democratic government in Mexico.
Zaragoza served as Secretary of War from April through October 1861 in the cabinet of President Benito Juárez.
When the French forces of Napoleon III invaded Mexico, Zaragoza fought them, first engaging the French at Acultzingo on April 28, 1862, where he was forced to withdraw. Zaragoza understood the favorable defensive position outside of the city of Puebla, where with a smaller and more poorly equipped force he beat back repeated French assaults on May 5th. The French then retreated to Orizaba.
Ignacio Zaragoza was known for visiting his sick and injured soldiers, and shortly after his famous victory he contracted typhus, of which he died at the age of 33.
nice worm early bird
Good morning, waiting on my first dup of coffee
