[11:39] {dino} none avail for me
01[11:40] {&Threei}  US) Fed's Fisher (hawk, FOMC alternate): In favor of tapering in the fall, investors cannot rely upon a "Fed put"- Taper needs to be orderly, must gingerly unwind the balance sheet. - Fed owns a significant slice of critical markets at the moment, is at a delicate moment. - Excess liquidty could provide plenty of kindling for inflation, may also be inspiring the misallocation of capital. - Markets may be too used to having Fed stimulus.
[11:40] {nemo} significant slice of critical markets...we're fucked
01[11:40] {&Threei}  Une voix dans le desert

01[11:43] {&Threei}  needless to say, right is doing fabulous job making themselves an easy target
01[11:44] {&Threei}  btw, someone posted an article in FT over the weekend with cute analogy: austerity during financial crisis is like prescribing a diet to anorexic
01[11:45] {&Threei}  to which I couldn't help but answer:
01[11:45] {&Threei}  borrowing more in debt crisis is like prescribing a cake to morbidly obese

01[13:19] {&Threei}  - Have not seen any name that has surfaced as a potential Fed Chair nominee that he woud not be happy to serve under, Bernanke has set a high bar, ultimate standard for a Fed chair is Volcker
01[13:19] {&Threei}  high bar eh?
01[13:19] {&Threei}  and the names floating are Yellen and Summers
01[13:19] {&Threei}  and he will be happy with them

01[13:47] {&Threei}  sigh
[13:48] {RonS} classic...lol
01[13:49] {&Threei}  Les, where are you
[13:56] {+cc_9} Just a thought, but have you guys considered trading DUST as opposed to GDX/GLD ?
[13:56] {+cc_9} The intraday swings are unmatched.
[13:56] {+cc_9} even a couple hundred shares make a good trade.
[13:57] {nemo} volume a little thin
01[13:57] {&Threei}  20-30 cents wide spread stock is a very different trading style
01[13:59] {&Threei}  I prefer hunting for 20-30 cents move on a 1000 shares of thick stock to a dollar - dollar and half om 200 shares of this thinnie
[14:06] {ese} omg.............tooth decay......yes definitely more exciting
[14:11] {+cc_9} If you anticipate a move on GDX, you get the same exact move on DUST. Obviously if you are wrong, then you are wrong.
[14:12] {+cc_9} I understand what you're saying though.
01[14:14] {&Threei}  it's different ways of risk contr'ol
01[14:14] {&Threei}  and setups are much easier to see on thicvk stocks
[14:14] {RonS} ok, nemo...hit 'em
01[14:14] {&Threei}  thin ones can make an "accidental" move that tags your stop with more ease than thick ones
[14:15] {RonS} ...nemo:  same as on thick women...
01[14:15] {&Threei}  lol

01[15:08] {&Threei}  not that Russia cares much if he doesn't go, but sheesh, show some spine and just don't go

01[15:17] {&Threei}  I see no correlation between GDX and DUST on this call
01[15:17] {&Threei}  GDX drops, DUST went up from the moment of GDX trigger

Market Week Wrap-up

TradeTheNews.com  Weekly Market Update: Mixed Data and Accommodative Monetary Policy Keeps Markets On Trend



- Global equity market sustained a solidly risk-on tone this week as investors coped with a heavy schedule of data, central bank decisions and earnings. The US Q2 GDP reading was better than expected even as July payrolls were weaker, while other US data was very good. China's official PMI reading came in better than expected, fighting off forecasts of a contraction. In Europe, final July PMI readings were a bit better than preliminary readings, while some other positive data provided more glimmers of hope that a bottom could be found under the euro crisis. ECB President Draghi reiterated his new "extended period" pledge as rates were left unchanged, while the Fed tinkered with the language of the statement - slightly downgrading its outlook on the US to "modest" economic expansion from "moderate". The Fed also acknowledged concerns about low inflation, allowing Governor Bullard to withdraw his dissent. The US earnings season is about two thirds complete, and some analysts are complaining about tepid earnings growth and very low revenue growth seen in corporate numbers. For the week, the DJIA rose 0.6%, the S&P500 gained 1.1% and the Nasdaq added 2.1%.

- The June US job reports underperformed expectations. The +162K NFP print missed expectations of +185K, however equity markets took the data in stride. Analysts highlighted that most of the job gains were concentrated in the low-paying retail and service sector. Both hourly wages and the average work week contracted, while the June NFPs were revised lower from +195K to +188K. Nevertheless, analysts suggested it would likely require another big payrolls miss to change the trajectory of Fed tapering plans. Former FOMC dissenter Bullard commented that the jobs data was "a little bit softer than expected but still consistent with a modestly improving economy we have seen in recent data."

- The first reading of Q2 US GDP at +1.7% was better than expected, although still lags below the +2.0% level that would likely provoke a self-sustaining recovery. Nonresidential investment, imports and exports were all much improved over final Q1 levels, although analysts said the decline in the PCE measure to +1.8% from final Q1 levels of +2.3% is not a very good sign. The July ISM manufacturing index topped expectations and hit its highest level since April 2011.

- Oil majors Exxon, Chevron, BP, and Shell all reported pretty terrible Q2 results. All four firms saw lower profits and production over last year and blamed soft oil prices for their terrible performance, plus a grab-bag of other excuses, including maintenance downtime and asset divestitures. Exxon's EPS missed expectations in its Q2 and reported its lowest profit in more than three years. Contrast these results with Conoco, which crushed earnings expectations on another incremental production increase and a raised FY production forecast.

- Shares of Facebook surpassed their initial offering price of $38 on Wednesday morning, a key milestone for the firm around 14 months after its deeply flawed IPO. The firm's shares have been on a tear since its excellent Q2 report, and press reports this week suggested Facebook would start further expand its growing advertising business by offering 15-second television-style spots in user news feeds.

- Major automakers reported another decent month of US sales in July. GM, Ford, Chrysler and Toyota saw double-digit percentage gains, with GM and Toyota sales up more than 16% y/y, though a bit below expectations. GM and Ford saw strong gains in truck sales. GM said its full-size pickup sales were up 44 percent, the best July figure since 2007. In the China market, Toyota reported July sales down 3.5%.

- Activist investor Bill Ackman has disclosed a 9.8%, $2.2 billion stake in Air Products, helping shares of APD trade up 3%. The company said it would "thoroughly review constructive input from shareholders" and noted that it had not yet been contacted by Ackman. Note that Herbalife, Ackman's big short position,hit one-year highs following a solid earnings report on Tuesday.


- The world's largest potash producer, Russian firm Uralkali, upended the industry by abandoning limits on production after it froze cooperation with major supplier Belarus. The decision sent shares of leading global potash producers down by 20-30% as investors speculated a flood of supplies will undercut prices. Note that the industry had run as an informal cartel that supported higher potash prices over shipped volumes.

- On the M&A front, the story of the week was Omnicom and Publicis Groupe agreeing to create the world's largest advertising firm in a merger of equals valued at slightly more than $35 billion. Analysts suggested the deal was an effort to restore the balance of power between traditional advertising firms and their online counterparts like Google. Perrigo agreed to buy Irish firm Elan for $8.6 billion, ending bitter takeover battle in which Elan rejected three lower bids from Royalty Pharma amid injunctions, court hearings and a war of words. Saks Fifth Avenue agreed to be acquired by Lord & Taylor owner Hudson's Bay Company for $16/share in cash, in a total deal valued at $2.9 billion.

- Michael Dell and Silver Lake have come very close to clinching their buyout deal for Dell after boosting their offer to at least $13.88 (and likely as much as $13.96) by offering to pay shareholders additional dividends after the deal closes. In exchange, the board will alter the voting rules to favor their deal, leaving Icahn out in the cold at the new special meeting, scheduled for September 12th.

- There were no surprises in either the BOE or ECB rate decisions. With some doubting the ECB's newly minted forward guidance ("key rates to remain at current level or lower for an extended period of time"), ECB President Draghi warned that there is no implicit deadline for the end of the "extended period" and that current market expectations for interest rate hikes in money markets were unwarranted. So far the ECB is struggling only slightly less than the Fed to lower expectations built into the front end of their curves. EUR/USD saw a 61.8% retracement of its 2013 range (1.3713-1.2746) on touching 1.3345 following the Fed statement on Wednesday. After dropping to around 1.3200 ahead of the US jobs report, it rose to 1.3280 on the disappointing payrolls.

- USD/JPY began the week at one-month lows below 98. Decisions regarding the timing and amount of consumption tax increase were a big catalyst, with PM Abe reported to have hired a team to evaluate a number of options to perhaps put off implementation of a 10% hike until 2015 (up from the current 5% consumption tax). On Thursday and Friday, USD/JPY marched right back towards 100, but fell short after the US payrolls report.

- AUD/USD weakness followed a double whammy from bad data down under. June building approvals showed an unexpectedly deep contraction and RBA Governor Stevens hinted at further easing was in the pipeline. The pair broke below the 0.90 handle for the first time since Sept 2010.

Little (or not so little) pre-weekend treat. Looks nice on top of other nice winning trades and secures 5 juicy profitable days in one week... which consists of 5 days. Funny coincidence.

01[14:01] {&Threei}  - To support a stronger economic recovery and to help ensure that inflation, over time, is at the rate most consistent with its dual mandate, the Committee 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. The Committee is maintaining its existing policy of reinvesting principal payments from its holdings of agency debt and agency mortgage-backed securities in agency mortgage-backed securities and of rolling over maturing Treasury securities at auction. Taken together, these actions should maintain downward pressure on longer-term interest rates, support mortgage markets, and help to make broader financial conditions more accommodative.

July 30 2013

Very good day with a few nice juicy wins, on hero of the day MOST (1:4 to 1:3 to 1:2), WMT and something else. Not bad for a low volume July day at all. Actually not bad for any day of any month.

Session Time: Tue Jul 30 00:00:00 2013
[09:21] {RonS} gm
01[09:22] {&Threei}  morning ron
01[09:23] {&Threei}  wow MOS
01[09:23] {&Threei}  POT
[09:24] {bbobr} gm
01[09:24] {&Threei}  bbobr :)
[09:24] {RonS} ya, really hard for me to understand how the Ukranian news will send potash prices down 25%
[09:25] {cipher} gm
01[09:25] {&Threei}  cipher :)
[09:25] {nemo} broke up the cartel
01[09:25] {&Threei}  russian, not ukrainian
[09:25] {nemo} there used to be unified pricing across producers, not anymore
[09:25] {nemo} Ukraninas wants market share, you get that by lowering prices
01[09:27] {&Threei}  Uralkali Stopping sales of potash via Belarus Potash Company (BPC) potash consortium, now all exports to go through its own subsidiary Uralkali Trading; Expected to cause potash prices to decline as market shifts from a semi-oligopoly to a fully competitive one- To deliver an optional quantity of 500,000 tons of potassium chloride within the framework of a 2013 contract. - Global potash price may decline to below $300/ton in H2 due to its decision to leave BPC (current price is about $400), but prices should remain above the $200 production costs of some international producers (Uralkali's production cost is only $62/ton) }- This will break up the existing JV (BPC) which controls 43% of the global export market - CEO: Plan to run at full capacity next year; Guides FY14 production to 13M tons v 10.5M tons in FY13 **INSIGHT: Uralkali is the world's largest potash producer. BPC was a potash consortium between Uralkali and Belaruskali, which leaves the North American potash consortium Canpotex (Potash Corp, Agrium, and Mosiac) as the leading global potash export partnership.
