01[11:44] {&Threei} - Investors are not feeling very confident this morning in the wake of compromised reports out of Goldman Sachs, Citigroup and Best Buy, with big declines in these and other major names weighing on broader markets.
01[11:44] {&Threei} - Contrasting December inflation reports in the US and the Eurozone are front-and-center this morning. The Eurozone report showed CPI up 0.3% m/m and the annualized rate dropped to 0.8% from 0.9% in November.
01[11:45] {&Threei} Meanwhile in the US the m/m figure was also 0.3%, while the annualized CPI rate rose to 1.5% from 1.2% in November, while core CPI was unchanged at 1.7%.
[11:45] {nemo} Bernanke speaking, market rallying
[11:47] {fish_49} I thought he was finished speaking last Monday?
01[11:47] {&Threei} - Dovish Fed governor Williams discussed some of his doubts about QE in a paper out today. Williams said that while asset purchases by the Fed have been a potent tool, the impact is blunt and carries risks that are not well understood
01[11:47] {&Threei} even doves question QE
[11:48] {nemo} yeah, but Bernanke says the Fed has everything under control...God speaks
01[11:48] {&Threei} fish, they are never done speaking. Look at Greenspan who still can't shut up, many years after retirement
[11:48] {fish_49} did his Brother Yellen agree?
[11:48] {nemo} you question the bearded one?
01[11:48] {&Threei} - Shares of Goldman Sachs are down 2.2% this morning despite beating consensus expectations for earnings and revenue
01[11:49] {&Threei} see, and if GS wass up, they would simply replace "despite" with "thanks to"
01[11:49] {&Threei} value added left and right
[11:50] {fish_49} your right
[11:50] {fish_49} nothing changed since yesterday
[11:50] {RonS} speaking of which...ese moping?
01[11:50] {&Threei} - Nu Skin is down another 20% after China's Ministry of Commerce said it is currently verifying whether or not Nu Skin is engaged in a pyramid scheme and the China State Administration for Industry & Commerce (SAIC) said it would open its own investigation
[11:50] {fish_49} so they are saying the markets are down and we don't know why
01[11:51] {&Threei} they'd never dmit that
[11:51] {fish_49} but we have to make something up or we wouldn't have a show

[12:46] {nemo} poignant
[12:49] {fish_49} a decision needs to be made even if the decision isnt right
[12:50] {fish_49} he is related to Nancy Pelosi and her comment "We have to pass the Bill to know what's in the Bill"
01[12:50] {&Threei} well, I think he is one step ahead of her
01[12:50] {&Threei} he already knows it's not right but he want to make it now
[12:50] {fish_49} guys usually are 1 step ahead of girls

[14:20] {fish_49} filled @ .05 even though stop limit was .06
01[14:23] {&Threei} if there was a hidden order at .05, you may have hit it not seeing it
[14:25] {fish_49} I see why it happened the trigger (Stop) was .05 and the limit was .06 it hit the stop and filled at a better price
01[14:25] {&Threei} yup
01[14:34] {&Threei} WMP Woodside Petroleum Ltd Awarded exclusive rights to proceed with proposed LNG terminal at the undeveloped site on the west coast of Canada - US financial press- British Columbia Premier Christy Clark: "Every step forward brings us closer to realizing the opportunity presented by LNG, bringing billions in investment and 100,000 new jobs throughout the province."

01[14:40] {&Threei} this pipeline is actually for China'
[14:41] {fish_49} oh then Im against it they will use plastic pipe and toy screws to hold pipe together
01[14:41] {&Threei} Keystone delay made Canada look that way, and build pipeline to the west coast and tanket terminals
01[14:41] {&Threei} left and enviromentalists are livid
[14:41] {fish_49} was Keystone for China also? I was thinking that was Russia
01[14:42] {&Threei} keystone was for you, yanks!
[14:42] {fish_49} If I lived in that area I might be concerned its a beautiful area
[14:42] {fish_49} the area that was being selected for the Keystone in the US was Midwest nothing all that great as far as property
01[14:42] {&Threei} no one lives where pipeline will go

[14:45] {fish_49} yes Ron and not to mention the jobs it will create to build and jobs to maintain
01[14:47] {&Threei} blue candle in volume corresponds with price candle that is not greed or red,
01[14:47] {&Threei} i.e, one where last print is the same as first
[14:47] {fish_49} Vad your a genius
01[14:47] {&Threei} so no price change, despite tails
01[14:47] {&Threei} greed = green
01[14:48] {&Threei} I can also explain what green candle means and red one - that how genius I am
[14:49] {fish_49} lol
[14:50] {fish_49} MU has price/volume divergence yea?

01[15:27] {&Threei} well, latter version is open to interpretation that rain dane is somewhat impaired mentally
[15:27] {dino} ty
01[15:27] {&Threei} Nu Skin Enterprises, Inc CEO: Company is "absolutely not a pyramid scheme"; Does not believe the Chinese press view reflects that of the govt - financial press- Yet to meet with China govt; Company's China team has been handling all govt inquiries.
01[15:40] {&Threei} (US) Fed's Kocherlakota (dovish, FOMC voter in 2014): Reiterates Fed needs to do more to stimulate the economy, was being complacent by planning for years of below-target inflation - FT interview- Reiterates Fed needs to improve communications about what it will do once unemployment rate falls below 6.5% threshold. - Rather than lower the 6.5% threshold, Fed could bring in new guidance about how it will behave until unemployment hits 5.5%. - Cutting interest on excess reserves (IOER) below zero would be a very powerful signal.
[15:43] {dino} "if" it ever gets to 5.5% without fudging the numbers
01[15:44] {&Threei} lol
[15:45] {fish_49} if Im fed I stop taper even more and faster and watch the economy if and when the economy grows too fast then we consider rates
[15:45] {fish_49} and your right Dino
[15:45] {fish_49} But I don't think Mr Yellen will fudge the numbers in his first 3 months
