[09:38] {cc_8} Among the companies with shares expected to trade actively in Wednesday’s session are FedEx Corp., Adobe Systems Inc. and Williams-Sonoma Inc.
[09:38] {cc_8} FedEx Corp.’s fiscal third-quarter earnings fell 31% as the global shipping giant was hurt by expenses related to its cost-cutting efforts and continued pressure in its international business that will result in capacity cutbacks in Asia. Shares fell 3.9% to $102.30 in premarket trade.
[09:38] {cc_8} Adobe Systems Inc.’s fiscal first-quarter earnings fell 65% on higher expenses due in part because subscriptions for its digital creative and marketing services grew ahead of expectations. Shares were up 5.8% to $43.11 premarket.

01[09:59] {Threei} (DE) German Chancellor Merkel: Raising taxes in Germany would be the wrong policy, economy is still fragile- Notes there will be more tough talks with the Cyprus Govt, need a lasting solution for the crisis - Does not want to see deposts under �100K taxed in Cyprus
01[09:59] {Threei} but everything over is a fair game
[09:59] {backman} slw stop .3
[09:59] {backman} ?
01[09:59] {Threei} .31
01[10:00] {Threei} isn't it unbelieavble how they consider confiscation acceptable solution?
[10:00] {Les} it is
[10:01] {Les} the idea that people must share the burden for their stupidity
[10:01] {jdetente} I would like to say it is...but am really not surprised.
[10:01] {Les} return to the middle ages
01[10:02] {Threei} I guess I am, because ever after leaving xUSSR I thought I'd never see this kind of things
[10:03] {jdetente} socialism has become acceptable in the western world over the last 20 years
[10:03] {jdetente} and these kinds of actions follow close behind
01[10:04] {Threei} so, what to do when there is nowhere to immigrate anymore?? :)

[10:06] {nemo} No mind is your natural state, don't know why you have to work at it?
[10:07] {Les} didn't need to aks for that one
[10:07] {Les} zen meditation remains best means of working on this at home?
[10:07] {nemo} yep, just take the opponents momentum and use it against him
[10:08] {nemo} must be trained both ways
[10:08] {nemo} You get a more isolated purer sense of it in meditation, but...
[10:08] {nemo} the key is to put it in conscious practice in actions
01[10:08] {Threei} Short Setup: GDX .40 break

01[11:37] {Threei} legit russian business?
[11:37] {Les} oxymoron?
[11:37] {Will49} oxycontin
01[11:38] {Threei} if there is any, why would it use Cyprus
[11:38] {Les} watching too much advertising will
[11:38] {ese} they better really have a good think about taxing those bank accts..........that in no uncertain terms will devestate that country..........will most certainly undermine confidence in the baniking system there for sure
[11:38] {Les} special tax status on dividends etc

01[11:39] {Threei} after that randomness took over
01[11:40] {Threei} market is nervously waiting for another headline from Cyprus, and has Ben to listen to later on
[11:41] {patel} my big miss today was ULTA.
01[11:42] {Threei} CAT...
01[11:42] {Threei} sheesh

[11:42] {Will49} i hate cats anyway
01[11:42] {Threei} got the right read, disipline was too strict
[11:43] {ese} does nothing to instill confidence
01[11:43] {Threei} lol
01[11:43] {Threei} ese, you just don't quit, do you
[11:43] {ese} never
01[11:44] {Threei} if 85 billion dollars monthly he injects in the market is not enough, what do you think he can do?
01[11:44] {Threei} put a price on confidence then
[11:45] {ese} injecting the money is not aconfidence builder
01[11:45] {Threei} what is?
01[11:45] {Threei} saying "everything is hunky dory"?
[11:45] {ese} lol
01[11:45] {Threei} Obama does that
01[11:45] {Threei} where is confidence?
[11:46] {nemo} Les, not sure I'd take this range bottom in IWM
[11:47] {ese} am thinking ...don't have answer for yet.........but the resilience of the US economy is a good place to start......everyone was assuming armageden by now
01[11:47] {Threei} what does ben have ti do with it?
01[11:48] {Threei} you expect him to stand up and say "US economy is resilient" and you think things will look up after that?
[11:48] {Les} note we are back at bottom of the rane
[11:48] {Les} range
01[11:48] {Threei} again, Obama said that about 200 times. Helped much?
[11:48] {cipher} out ONXX .42 +.41
[11:48] {ese} no not necessarilly
[11:49] {ese} well..........were into a rally aren't we
01[11:49] {Threei} of course
[11:49] {cipher} Z L.92
[11:49] {nemo} mmmhhhh, if I believed in rigged markets, I'd say they're looking to bottom CAT out around 86 when Bennie speaks
01[11:49] {Threei} and as we discussed about 200 times, thanks to 85 billion dollars monthly injection
01[11:50] {Threei} you think there is direct link between market performance and economy?
[11:50] {nemo} Yeah, Bennie buys the riskier securities from the banks so they now have more room to upgrade their risk profile with US Treasuries
[11:50] {nemo} If Bennie stops buying, things get interesting
01[11:51] {Threei} seriously, do you have an idea what is goijg to happen to the market if BVen stops bouying bonds?

01[11:51] {Threei} so, you realize that market rallies thanks to this buying?
01[11:52] {Threei} and economy state is irrelevant to this rally?
[11:53] {ese} and the amount of capitol that has still not been committed....in the trillions
01[11:53] {Threei} sdo we are back to:
01[11:53] {Threei} what is it you want Ben to do?

01[11:54] {Threei} only I want him to stop doing it, and you want him to do more
01[11:55] {Threei} - Despite the market optimism, the situation in Cyprus remains highly volatile. The consensus view is that Europe needs to find a way to restore confidence in Cyprus by this weekend or the banking system and economy could collapse. Plan A has been voted down and Plans B and C (whatever they were) have been dismissed.
01[11:56] {Threei} Meanwhile, the ECB is balking at using the ELA for a bank recap, claiming that Cyprus's banking system is functionally insolvent. The Cyprus finance minister is in Moscow negotiating with the Russians, who have reportedly shown interest in granting a loan in exchange for natural gas assets and/or a naval base, but this route is problematic as well, also for diplomatic reasons.
01[11:56] {Threei} After dropping below 1.2900 and the 200-day moving average during yesterday's session, EUR/USD has retaken 1.2950 overnight on vain hopes a solution was near.

[13:40] {patel} After he came into the courtroom, Lane calmly unbuttoned his blue dress shirt to reveal the T-shirt reading "killer," which the prosecutor noted was similar to one he wore during the shooting.
[13:40] {patel} At one point, Lane swiveled around in his chair toward the gallery where his own family members and those of the slain teenagers were sitting and spoke suddenly, surprising even his lawyer.
[13:40] {patel} "The hand that pulled the trigger that killed your sons now masturbates to the memory," he said, then cursed at and raised his middle finger toward the victims' relatives.

01[14:00] {Threei} *(US) FOMC HOLDS FED FUNDS RATE TARGET AT 0.25% (AS EXPECTED): WILL CONTINUE TO PURCHASE TREASURIES AT $45B/MONTH - Vote 11-1
01[14:01] {Threei} decided to continue purchasing additional agency mortgage-backed securities at a pace of $40 billion per month and longer-term Treasury securities at a pace of $45 billion per month.
01[14:01] {Threei} there ese... happy?
01[14:02] {Threei} Committee reiterates it decided to keep the target range for the federal funds rate at 0 to 1/4 percent and currently anticipates that this exceptionally low range for the federal funds rate will be appropriate at least as long as the unemployment rate remains above 6-1/2 percent, inflation between one and two years ahead is projected to be no more than a half percentage point above the Committee's 2 percent longer-run goal, and longer-term inflation expectations continue to be well anchored.
[14:02] {Les} can we go back to sleep now?

01[14:39] {Threei} (US) Fed Chairman Bernanke: Job market has shown signs of improvement over last six months, economic data has returned to positive growth after a pause - press conference- Inflation expectations are stable, running below FOMC objectives. - Most participants agree that QE continues to provide meaningful support to the economic recovery - Risks to financial stability include threats to the functioning of securities markets and low rates spurring excessive risk-taking behavior. FOMC decided that the risks continue to be manageable. - FOMC could vary pace of asset purchases, although at current meeting decided not to vary the purchases. - Reiterates that the Fed's policy thresholds are not automatic triggers for changes in monetary policy

01[15:41] {Threei} yes but all that is providing nothing else happens - and with idiots running the world show, anything can happen any moment'
01[15:41] {Threei} we have potential government shutdown in a week or so,
