Another nicely profitable and not very active day. Just fine with me though - between profit and excitement, I'll take profit every day - and save excitement for aftermarket.
Session Time: Wed Oct 12 00:00:00 2011
[08:56] {Threei} I guess it's time
[09:00] {nemo} for what
[09:00] {Threei} waking up...
[09:01] {nemo} another big gap up day
[09:05] {nemo} spy has to go to 122
[09:14] {Threei} (EU) EU's Barosso releases statement on bank recapitalization plans
[09:14] {Threei} - Fully coordinated approach to European bank recapitalization should be based on reassessment by supervisors of capital needs.
[09:14] {Threei} - Supervisors should temporarily use significantly higher capital ratios, featuring high-quality capital.
[09:14] {Threei} - Banks should first seek private capial and only then pursue government support, if necessary. If government support is then unavailable, firms may seek capital from the EFSF.
[09:14] {Threei} - Pending recapitalization, banks should be prevented from paying out dividends or bonuses.
[09:14] {Threei} - The sixth tranche of Greece aid must be disbursed.
[09:15] {Threei} quite obvious to me that this move postpones the decisive moment once again

[11:10] {Threei} (EU) European Banking Authority (EBA) considering valuing all sovereign debt to current market value with regards to bank capital requirements - financial press
[11:10] {Threei} - Affirms 9% core tier 1 capital ratio to be used as passing; will likely use same definition of capital as used in prior stress tests this year
[11:11] {Threei} hah
[11:12] {Threei} if they value sovereign debt at the current market value, aren't their banks dead in the water instantly?
[11:12] {dino} yes
[11:12] {dino} i think its po;itical speak and they will say 100%
[11:14] {Threei} tough to do
[11:14] {Threei} no person alive will believe that
[11:15] {dino} they will say its insured
[11:15] {thomcbell} this nuan looks good in every time frame
[11:15] {Threei} 100% means all debt can be repaid in time
[11:15] {Threei} and moving burden to insurance comanies is what they started testing waters for, yes
[11:15] {dino} 3i, seriously, when do politicians tell the truth
[11:16] {thomcbell} weekly odd
[11:16] {Threei} but we know that it's going to fail just as well
[11:16] {dino} yes, but next year now
[11:16] {Threei} practically never, sure
[11:16] {dino} i think you see a qe foe euro
[11:16] {RonS} dino, when they say "i'm going to hit the head"?
[11:16] {Threei} but don't underestimate one unusual side of today's situation
[11:16] {dino} salvation thru inflation
[11:17] {RonS} "i need a donation"?
[11:17] {Threei} which is, lies accumulated and amassed to a degree where public started seeing through them and started geting involved
[11:17] {dino} but public is blaming business/bankers, not politicians
[11:18] {dino} public is dumb
[11:18] {dino} by design
[11:18] {Threei} true, but it makes impossible for politcians to arrange the next round of bailouts
[11:18] {Threei} well... not impossible
[11:18] {Threei} difficult
[11:18] {dino} they will be gone by then, saved themselves
[11:19] {dino} it will be like the rats abandoning the ship
[11:19] {Threei} we'll see how it develops... I have a feeling, this time around they won't be able to do it
[11:19] {Threei} this keg with powder iks going to blow up
[11:19] {Threei} and cord is shorter and shorter
[11:19] {Threei} and there is one more thing
[11:19] {dino} sure
[11:20] {Threei} even if europe manages somehow to keep balance,
[11:20] {Threei} next explosive problem is china
[11:20] {Threei} and it's not very far down the road
[11:20] {dino} but you forget, they own the euro printing press
[11:20] {Threei} Not many pay attention to it right now
[11:20] {Threei} simply because europian prblems take precedence
[11:21] {dino} i believe japan is next, as this carry trade that floats them gets tighter
[11:21] {Threei} could be...
[11:21] {Threei} so, to me it's one of two ways forward
[11:21] {patience} good morning
[11:21] {Threei} patience :)
[11:22] {Threei} eother Europe breaks down first
[11:22] {Threei} and world economic collapse starts there and spreads to China
[11:22] {Threei} or
[11:22] {Threei} Europe overcome political difficulties and prints its way out,
[11:23] {Threei} and China blows upo becoming the trigger of that sdame collapse
[11:23] {Threei} if Japan manages to insert itself in the mddle, it's just a third way to same outcome :)
[11:24] {dino} i believe the printing press is what happens, they are too afraid to do what it takes. so inflate it away (for now)
[11:24] {Threei} curiously enough, whichever scenario I try to play out mentally, the recovery starts in US
[11:24] {dino} agreed
[11:24] {dino} europe is showing the liberals that the welfare state does not work
[11:25] {RonS} dino, you must be kidding...liberals never learn
[11:25] {dino} cmi sm s .50 stop hod
