  2. When the minutes came out, indexes went up a tiny bit

    the sheeple : ''OMG GUYS THEY CUT THE RATES 2 WEEKS AGO BUY BUY BUY''

    then after a few minutes it went down

    the sheeple : ''WAIT A SECOND GUYS, WE KNEW THAT ALREADY, SELL SELL SELL''

  3. S2007S

    S2007S

    largest increase on CPI since SEPT 2005...inflation is going to rise quickly over the next 12-18 months, lowering rates is only to cause more problems, 3% is low enough, they should have stopped at 4%, anything lower and its going to get worse, many are looking for 2% fed funds rate.....

  6. I agree but it worked again today or about the 15th time this year(fading the rally). When buying high and selling low stops working, let me know.


    I covered at 13,300 and took my profits for the day. Can't get tooooo greedy.
