[08:19] {Threei} FED FISHER SAYS FED SHOULD NOT EASE UNLESS DRAMATIC ECONOMIC SLOWDOWN; FIRMING DEPENDS ON COOLING INFLATION WITHOUT WORSE ECONOMIC ANEMIA
- Must think through when time for interest rate increase
[08:19] {Threei} - USD rebound and lower gold prices suggest confidence in FED on inflation
[08:19] {Threei} - Inflation remains a concern despite anemic economic growth
[08:19] {Threei} - takes FOMC statement at face value, sees risks on both sides
[08:34] {Threei} An analyst at Goldman Sachs said overnight that the possibility of $150- $200/barrel oil prices seems increasingly likely over the next 6-24 months, and as a result raised their 2008 oil price forecast to $108 from $96, and raised the 2009 oil price forecast raised to $110 from $105.

[10:56] {GeoArb} it was wierd
[10:56] {Threei} first it drops like the world ends tomorrow
[10:56] {GeoArb} easier to predict immediate shortterm
[10:57] {Threei} then it does form nice bottoming pattern
[10:57] {Threei} double bottom, consolidation under 1970 for NQ, break
[10:57] {Threei} I use it for RIMM read,
[10:58] {Threei} but heck, to see NQ proceeding to make new highs for the day, that's a bit rich :)

[10:58] {Threei} whatever
[10:58] {Threei} we find our plays
