01[10:05] {Threei} (EU) Outgoing member ECB's Stark: Euro zone needs its own finance ministry
01[10:05] {Threei} they couldn't get that EU constitution through, so now theyh are using crisis to get the same thing through the backdoor
01[10:05] {Threei} what was this rahm's saying... never waste a good crisis?

01[10:19] {Threei} just how disappointed those who trusted it remain
01[10:20] {Threei} it was against our general market read, so we waited it out, nailed the end of it, unleashed our shorts, and got rewarded with 5 straight wins
01[10:20] {Threei} clear illustration to " go with your read, but wait for yor setups"

01[10:50] {Threei} (FR) France Foreign Min Juppe: The loss of AAA rating would not be cataclysmic; believes that ratings agencies can be "subjective and political" - French press
01[10:50] {Threei} Earlier this morning Bundesbank President Weidmann said that the loss of 'AAA' rating is not the end of the world.
01[10:50] {Threei} cam you tell they see it coming?
[10:51] {dino} indeed
[10:51] {dino} everybodyv already knows they are not aaa
01[10:55] {Threei} curious thing to me is:
01[10:55] {Threei} everyone knows it's comiong, deep in their soul,
01[10:56] {Threei} and normally, this kind of things would have caused selling in advance
01[10:56] {Threei} so that when actual event comes, market reacts in opposite way, trapping those who came late to the party
01[10:56] {Threei} This time ariound however, market stays in denial
[10:56] {dino} gpor stop -.28
01[10:57] {Threei} and when it happens, it will actualy tank
01[10:57] {Threei} I don't know why... my best guess is:
01[10:58] {Threei} market is so overwhelmed by bad news and unimaginable scale of a disaster projected, it just gets nube to it
01[10:58] {Threei} numb
01[10:58] {Threei} so any hint of good news causes husterical buying
01[10:58] {Threei} hysterical
01[10:58] {Threei} then depression returns and steady selling resumes
01[10:59] {Threei} that's your bi-polar neurotic market that we have last few weeks/months
