01[12:27] {@Threei}  amazing
01[12:27] {@Threei}  company fights its founder
01[12:27] {@Threei}  and board says they are more aligned with company values than the founder himself
01[12:28] {@Threei}  and all this hoopla started because he once said that not every bottom matches their pants

01[13:16] {@Threei}  why didn't we make CAT two-sided
[13:19] {dptl} thinking to short vlo here
[13:22] {dptl} stop above .50
[13:23] {Alexs} I think Vad it's not just propaganda
[13:23] {Alexs} west contributed too
01[13:24] {@Threei}  whatever west does, there should be serious machine working 24/7 to make 20 years old believe that life in USSR was great, and that the workld should be afraid of them
01[13:25] {@Threei}  you either bring them up in the spirit of cooperation with the world, or in the spirit of fighting
[13:25] {Alexs} nobody cares about USSR I mean young people
01[13:25] {@Threei}  I am talking about this article
01[13:26] {@Threei}  I haven't pooled russian youth
[13:26] {Alexs} what they see that west consider them as second-class people
01[13:26] {@Threei}  how?
[13:27] {Alexs} all those stupid visa restrictions for ordinary people
01[13:27] {@Threei}  they are hired by western companies
01[13:27] {@Threei}  paod well
01[13:27] {@Threei}  travel all over the world
01[13:27] {@Threei}  I know quite a few working for Apple, Microsoft etc
[13:28] {Alexs} you know what it takes to get visa to US from Russia?
01[13:28] {@Threei}  USA has visa regime for most of the world
01[13:28] {@Threei}  so what
01[13:28] {@Threei}  if they asre insulted by that...
[13:29] {Alexs} it makes people jealous
01[13:29] {@Threei}  and btw, those guys I just mentioned get their visas with no problem
[13:30] {Alexs} I got visa to US the third attempt
01[13:31] {@Threei}  OK, so that's it? they are in confrontation with the world and in love with Putin because of USA visa regime?
01[13:31] {@Threei}  and with Europe? because of Konchita Wurst?
[13:31] {Alexs} no it's just one example
[13:44] {nathan} g afternon
01[13:45] {@Threei}  hey nathan
[13:45] {nathan} nice IWM this morning
01[13:45] {@Threei}  yup, that was today's star
01[13:45] {@Threei}  falling star at that
[13:45] {nathan} better than yesterday?
01[13:46] {@Threei}  today's less active
01[13:46] {@Threei}  now, here is one man who should just shut up and never utter a word about Ukraine:
01[13:46] {@Threei}  US Vice President Biden supports Poroshenko's peace plan for eastern Ukraine
01[13:47] {@Threei}  imbecile
[13:47] {nathan} what's his personal interest on it? i bet he has one
[13:47] {dptl} half out vlo
01[13:48] {@Threei}  his son took prominent position in ukrainian energy company a few weeks ago
[13:49] {Alexs} nobody's seen that plan yet as I know
01[13:49] {@Threei}  talk about conflict of interests and bad public image...
01[13:49] {@Threei}  why, it's published
[13:49] {Alexs} when?
01[13:49] {@Threei}  couple days ago
[13:50] {Alexs} what the plan? something new?
01[13:51] {@Threei}  as first phase, free corridor for a week allowing separatists to leave for Russia without weapons
[13:51] {Alexs} lol
01[13:51] {@Threei}  guaranteed, controlled and monitorwed by three sides
01[13:52] {@Threei}  after that, full scale attack on those who elected to remain
[13:53] {Alexs} I don't think it will work that way
01[13:53] {@Threei}  nope
01[13:53] {@Threei}  they won't take it, and he won't order such attack
01[13:53] {@Threei}  which is a good compromise...
01[13:53] {@Threei}  much like in that old joke
[13:54] {Alexs} I thought he proposed a real plan
01[13:54] {@Threei}  where employee demanded salary increase or he would leave
01[13:54] {@Threei}  they compromised: boss didn't raise his salary, and he didn't leave
[13:54] {Alexs} lol
01[13:55] {@Threei}  what real plan is possible in this situation?
01[13:55] {@Threei}  they won't settle for less than separation
01[13:55] {@Threei}  he can't agree to that
01[13:55] {@Threei}  the rest is immaterial
01[13:55] {@Threei}  fighting will continue
01[13:56] {@Threei}  he is trying to save good face by offering chance for peaceful exit
01[13:56] {@Threei}  otherwise he will look bloodthristy
01[13:56] {@Threei}  that's all
[13:56] {Alexs} and what they get by fighting?
01[13:56] {@Threei}  ok C, give us 1:2
[13:57] {dptl} out rest vlo +.31
01[13:57] {@Threei}  what they get or what they hope to get?
01[13:57] {@Threei}  wtg dp
[13:57] {dptl} :)
[13:58] {Alexs} more people will die that's it
01[13:58] {@Threei}  they don't care
[13:58] {Alexs} he can't win by fighting
[13:59] {Alexs} I'm talking about Poroshenko
01[13:59] {@Threei}  *(US) MAY MONTHLY BUDGET STATEMENT: -$129.97B V -$130.5BE- Receipts: $199.9B v $197.2B y/y- Outlays: $329.9B v $335.9B y/y
01[13:59] {@Threei}  you have an idea for him?
01[14:00] {@Threei}  TGT *RAISES DIVIDEND 21% TO $0.52 FROM $0.43
[14:01] {Alexs} if you can't win you should negotiate, the erlier the better or later you will lose harder
01[14:06] {@Threei}  good luck negotiang with those who don't
[14:09] {Alexs} sooner or later Poroshenko will seat with the separatists no other way out of this you'll see
01[14:11] {@Threei}  of course he will
[14:11] {Alexs} and the later he does it more shameful it will be
[14:11] {dptl} long p here
01[14:12] {@Threei}  you are making a mistake thinking of them as a side that makes decisions
01[14:12] {@Threei}  they don't
01[14:12] {@Threei}  they do what they are told
01[14:12] {@Threei}  they will sit down and talk to him when Putin has him where he wants him
[14:13] {Alexs} they don't but Russia uses them as a frontmen
01[14:13] {@Threei}  he offered negotiations on day 1, they decline so far
[14:13] {dptl} half out
01[14:13] {@Threei}  what else do you want him to do?
01[14:13] {@Threei}  he waits till they are told to sit down and talk
01[14:14] {@Threei}  menahwile he tries to press them militarily
[14:15] {Alexs} Putin called for stop of military operation from ukrainians and finally he will get it
01[14:15] {@Threei}  C stop to .81
01[14:17] {@Threei}  to .76 now
[14:18] {Alexs} and if ukrainians lose more people and after that stop operation it will be worse
01[14:19] {@Threei}  I still haven't heard what you recommend him to do when the only real demand on the table is to acknowledge independence of two provinces
[14:21] {Alexs} I bet Russia doesn't need those provinces, Putin is not crazy
01[14:21] {@Threei}  I said independence from ukraine, not joining russia
01[14:22] {@Threei}  1:2  C
[14:22] {Alexs} it's the same thing currently
01[14:22] {@Threei}  this is their only demand on the table
01[14:22] {@Threei}  what should he dio?
[14:23] {Alexs} first stop operation
[14:23] {Alexs} second start negotiation with russia and separatists
01[14:24] {@Threei}  They put their main demand on the table: Acknowldge independence. Your next step?
[14:26] {Alexs} Putin just need to be seen as a peacemaker he doeasn't need that independence bull
01[14:26] {@Threei}  you masterfully avoid answerring :)
01[14:27] {@Threei}  but that's exactly the problem Poroshenko faces. Their only real demand is the one he can't meet
[14:28] {Alexs} he hasn't negotiated with anybody yet Vad he should start the process
[14:29] {RonS} he should hire Jack Bauer and get the whole thing solved in a day...
