[12:23] {Threei}  - Loose Fed policy is still needed due to high levels of unemployment and low levels of inflation.

[12:59] {Threei} Short Setup: X  52 break
[13:00] {Threei}  .05 is closest resistance...
[13:00] {Threei}  looks a bit too tight for a stop though
[13:01] {Threei}  ugh... what is it with me and SLW today, missed again... thought of .60 short trigger
[13:02] {Threei}  let's keep X stop .06
[13:04] {Threei}  (US) Fed's Yellen: Does not expect any significant market reaction to the end of QE2 buying in June - Q&A
[13:04] {Threei}  - Fed bond sales may pressure markets, Fed will need to gradually sell off its holdings at a predictable pace.
[13:04] {Threei}  - Value of the USD influences commodity prices.
[13:04] {Threei}  - Unemployment rate has fallen by a surprising amount.
[13:05] {Threei}  Value of the USD influences commodity prices.
[13:05] {Threei}  you don't say
[13:05] {Threei}  yet same Fed speaker said a few min earlier:
[13:05] {Threei}  - Commodity prices are being driven by global supply and demand issues
[13:05] {Threei}  sigh
[13:06] {Threei}  - Fed bond sales may pressure markets, Fed will need to gradually sell off its holdings at a predictable pace.
[13:07] {RonS} who books that loss?
[13:07] {Threei}  good question
[13:07] {Threei}  increasingly seems to me, Fed has peinted themselves in the corner
[13:08] {nemo} No...they've painted us into a corner
[13:08] {Threei}  and unless they find some surprizing way to unwind the whole thing, it may very well be the end of Fed
[13:08] {Threei}  dunno nemo... this time they went too far to surive it seems
[13:09] {Threei}  we are screwed either way, no question about that
[13:09] {Threei}  but every time before we were the only ones... this time they may sink with us
[13:10] {Threei}  have a look at this
[13:10] {Threei}  no go X
[13:10] {Threei}  "Federal Reserve has already pushed its balance sheet to a point where it is leveraged 50-to-1 against its capital ($2.65 trillion / $52.6 billion in capital as reported the Fed's consolidated balance sheet ). This is a greater leverage ratio than Bear Stearns or Fannie Mae, with similar interest rate risk but less default risk.
[13:10] {Threei}  The Fed holds roughly $1.3 trillion in Treasury debt, $937 billion in mortgage securities by Fannie and Freddie, $132 billion of direct obligations of Fannie, Freddie and the FHLB, and nearly $80 billion in TIPS and T-bills. The maturity distribution of these assets works out to an average duration of about 6 years, which implies that the Fed would lose roughly 6% in value for every 100 basis points higher in long-term interest rates.
[13:10] {Threei}  Given that the Fed only holds 2% in capital against these assets, a 35-basis point increase in long-term yields would effectively wipe out the Fed's capital."
[13:12] {nemo} BOHICA!
[13:13] {RonS} but can't they hold them to maturity and let them roll off?
[13:13] {nemo} not if the underlying instruments default
[13:14] {Threei}  with rising rates, interest will become a problem quickly I assume
[13:14] {nemo} that'll drive the yields up
[13:14] {Threei}  plus what nemo said
[13:15] {RonS} oil softening now 110.38
[13:15] {dino} i see rinses are still occurring, tdsc
[13:16] {davd} i subscribe to art cashen statement "no point betting on the end of the world - it only happens once and if you are right the money you make isnt worth anything anyway"
[13:16] {Threei}  lol
[13:17] {RonS} Lew Reed
[13:17] {RonS} Lou
[13:17] {RonS} "send lawyers, guns and money"
[13:18] {nemo} that would be lawyers, guns and Federal Reserve brand Charmin...60 grit
[13:19] {RonS} oil 110.12
[13:20] {RonS} setting up to print an outside reversal
[13:21] {Threei}  wow
[13:21] {Threei}  sharp drop oil
[13:21] {davd} vix hod RonS :D
[13:21] {RonS} ya but it should be over 18
[13:22] {Threei}  Nissan Motor Co Ltd Customers in US and Japan have indicated electic Leaf vehicles sometimes fail to start - Nikkei News
[13:22] {RonS} rotflol
[13:22] {Threei}  Nissan: plug it in dummies, don't try to pour gasolin the battery!
[13:23] {Threei}  Dummies: oops...
[13:24] {RonS} dummies: but my power comes from the shuttered nuclear plant
[13:24] {Threei}  Nissan: you wanted electric - you got electric. Want a coal? we can provide that too
[13:25] {RonS} dummies:  i can fix it w/ my portable generator...
[13:25] {Threei}  shovel comes as a free gift
[13:25] {davd} they think they are better than us gas guzzlers. :(
[13:25] {Threei}  dummies? of course
[13:26] {Threei}  they think they are better than anyone else, as long as they paint their forehead green
[13:27] {RonS} once my dad bought my mom a coal shovel for birthday gift
[13:27] {dino} lol
[13:27] {RonS} as endearment he carved her name in the handle
[13:27] {RonS} they are coming up on 60th anniversary
[13:27] {nemo} is there an imprint of his head on it?
[13:28] {Threei}  forgive me for asking but... did it end in an extended hospital stay or funeral?
[13:28] {dino} lol
[13:29] {Threei}  the best gift idea I ever came up with was to cancel that kitchen garburator...
