6 calls, 5 wins. No complaints here. End of day little bounce doesn't change anything - I still see Friday rally as Sienflied one - rally about nothing. 

Session Time: Mon Dec 12 00:00:00 2011

[11:27] {RonS} hal barely budged...
[11:35] {Threei}  Commerzbank AG Said to have been holding "intense" discussions with German govt over recent days in regards to state financial aid - financial press
[11:37] {dino} sprd sm l .50
[11:49] {Threei}  Fitch comments on EU summit
[11:50] {Threei}  let me post whole thing
[11:50] {Threei}  (EU) Fitch comments on Euro summit; did little to reduce pressure on sovereign debt; only true firewall is access to ECB balance sheet- Fitch Ratings says after the latest EU crisis meeting it is clear that politicians are responding to the eurozone sovereign debt crisis through incremental improvements. It seems that a "comprehensive solution" to the current crisis is not on offer - Taking the gradualist approach imposes additional economic and financial costs compared with an immediate comprehensive solution. It means the crisis will continue at varying levels of intensity throughout 2012 and probably beyond, until the region is able to sustain broad economic recovery - The latest EU Summit, like others before it, has resulted in some positive developments. There is an extra EUR200bn of funding for the IMF, the ESM has been brought forward, and there has been policy change on private-sector involvement in any future sovereign crisis - We still believe the ECB, either directly through its sovereign bond purchase programme or indirectly by allowing the EFSF/ESM to access its balance sheet, is the only truly credible "firewall" against liquidity and even solvency crises in Europe
[11:51] {Threei}  this last sentence is the key
[11:51] {Threei}  We still believe the ECB, either directly through its sovereign bond purchase programme or indirectly by allowing the EFSF/ESM to access its balance sheet, is the only truly credible "firewall" against liquidity and even solvency crises in Europe
[11:52] {Threei}  first, ECB so far refuses to do it (and with good reason)
[11:52] {Threei}  and second, if it doesn, it only digs a deeper hole
[11:52] {Threei}  is it does
[11:53] {dino} filled dji and ndx thurs gaps
[11:54] {Threei}  looking at the combination of the news flow and price movements,
[11:54] {Threei}  the worst thing is not even the drop itself
[11:54] {RonS} acom
[11:55] {Threei}  but that it comes after all-important and so much hoped for Friday summit
[11:56] {dino} pretty good drop
[11:56] {Threei}  Euro vs US Dollar Breaks to session lows below 1.3200
[11:56] {Threei}  49% of GOP voters see Gingrich as strongest General Election candidate, 24% say Romney
[11:56] {Threei}  wow
[11:56] {Threei}  hate to say, I didn't see it coming
[11:56] {Threei}  have

[12:28] {RonS} him not being here is really mean...
[12:28] {Threei}  very
[12:28] {Threei}  him being here makes us all look better
[12:28] {RonS} lol
[12:29] {Threei}  so by not being here he makes us look worse, thus it's mean
[12:29] {Threei}  there... what a immaculate logic chain
[13:04] {RonS} well slap my forehead...i never realized...BOC CARNEY: reiterates Canada companies must lead to economic growth. Weak demand could lead to defaults, social unrest.
