Ever since the USDJPY breached the 110 support level three days ago for the first time in 17 months, the pressure on this all important FX carry cross has been rising, and then overnight, following the latest bout of recurring and increasingly ignored jawboning by various Japanese officials, the Yen soared, with the USDJPY plunging first below 109 and then moments ago dropping as low as 108.02 before rebounding modestly, dragging US equity futures lower with it.

Sure shows how they can be “painted”, and much easier to see if you zoom in for a closer look. LOL!!!

U.S. interest rate policy and American financial regulation, among other topics. It comes amid an uncertain time for large banks, which have recently faced global economic confusion, monetary policy changes and political rhetoric against Wall Street.

Debate about the U.S. banking system’s safety has raged on the campaign trail, and Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont has made breaking up big institutions a cornerstone of his Democratic presidential campaign. A call for more regulation has also come from the Federal Reserve ranks, as Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari warned this week that significant risks still linger in the banking system.

Dimon noted that the bank is not worried about the possibility of negative interest rates in the United States.

He also addressed the a possible “Brexit,” or Britain leaving the European Union. Dimon argued that, while Britain could potentially thrive on its own, its departure may disrupt the European economy.

“The range of outcomes of a Brexit is large and potentially unknown,”

Look at all the foreign currencies going LOWER. They are now getting strangled. Its their turn. No more “water”. For example Japan’s big companies stocks are crashing, harder to export.

Look at the dollar going higher. USA getting its “water” turned back on. Everything is priced in dopey/dollars.

” Parker said the bar has been set so low for companies that they would most likely beat estimates.”

The way I read this confession by a JPM spokesman is admission to the fact that companies always, or mostly so, beat their earnings estimates because they are set so artificially low, and the numbers stretched beyond any believable  (read accurate ) measure as to be useless. So what does JPM wish companies to announce that would be positive news….what they ” think” the future will hold.

What is next? A palm reader or perhaps a set of Tara cards ? I continue to be amazed at what the investment community trusts as ‘trading information’ which is little more than smoke and mirrors at best. Well, at least someone finally admits it. The illusion continues……except at the Oasis, where some good folks with common sense still know how to call a spade a spade.

They sure are selling everything at 1240……but Nem is close to a new Hi break out and Hui was only 9 pts away, it shud open @ 185 plus if GDX stays @ 20.60…only 4 pts from new Hi’s and if we can make new Hi’s the H&S Top will be dead. !!!!!!!

Thanks for the update. The USD sure doesn’t act like it wants to move higher and for some unknown, illogical reason the Yen is on fire.

It appears the scum is going to try to hold the line at $1240 to keep us in a mini trading range.

Good luck to all of those who trade

here is where some want to buy and u can bet that there are loads more wondering where to start.

Where One Swiss Bank Will Be Buying Gold

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-04-06/where-one-swiss-bank-will-be-buying-gold

It looks  like a BUY on  MAY 1 (NOT NOW)and then again on JUNE 2 (a better BUY) then up about 400% with a top on sept 29   ..then down followed by a final Top on DEC 30 of  700 % ( from june 2)..Thats what My charts say …My crystal BALL !

say it goes down from 4,6 until 4,13  about a week…..then up for about a MONTH until 5,15   at the end of which the Great BUll MARKET BEGINS in AU &AG …

is now under all significant daily, weekly, and monthly moving averages. When the support at 94.00 goes out, 84.00 could happen sooner than everyone thinks.

the silver cup and handle bottom continues to evolve. A crash in the usdx would propel silver to the upside very quickly. It may also explain why grains aren’t tanking with very bearish crop and inventory reports.

cocoa is priced in euros and appears ready for another leg up.

i hope those of you who purchased Sandridge stock sold enough to be on house money.

rno, dodging prairie fires, tornados, earthquakes and bill collectors!

What would we do without Radomski? After all he is a Chartered Financial Analyst.

As usual, thanks for casting doubt.

IMO not quite yet for goldbugs. In fact I think it’s now our turn.

Here’s my interpretation. Gold has broken out and is now back testing. Click the chart to enlarge.   Silverngold

As of now we can say there is a stand off…..who wins……. tdy the bulls are winning….There is no way to call this a bear mkt, as of tdy …shud the Scum crash the mkt, then we have to re-evaluate….but they have to take the lows out to call it a bear mkt…until then it is a correction.

Over and above all TA, is the “action”….as of now it is bullish.

But on TV the other day, they said “nobody saw this coming”. So I guess I’m Nobody. You can’t rely on charts anymore. You have to know what the central planners are doing.

Deflation implies TPTB don’t know what the f-hell they are doing and big money people banks and gov’ts go to gold. NOT futures contracts unless they want delivery. Playing the futures market is like a carnival game. You really can’t win and are being used like a shock absorber.

Parts Below:

Gold futures settled higher Thursday, scoring their best quarterly performance since 1986—a year when “Top Gun” was the most popular movie.

Bullion has benefited as the Federal Reserve’s dovish stance on policy has softened the highflying U.S. dollar.

Technically, the metal “has started a new bull market in [the U.S. dollar] and is now catching up to the bull market” which was started nearly two years ago, Sebag said.

Meanwhile, Roy Sebag, chief executive officer of GoldMoney, told MarketWatch that gold prices have been climbing strongly not just in U.S. dollars, but in other currencies as well.

“Though it’s been only three months, gold is now up between 13% [and] 23% in the world’s major currencies, making one of the strongest movements in gold since it was demonetized in 1971,” he said.
