[08:19] {Threei} FED FISHER SAYS FED SHOULD NOT EASE UNLESS DRAMATIC ECONOMIC SLOWDOWN; FIRMING DEPENDS ON COOLING INFLATION WITHOUT WORSE ECONOMIC ANEMIA
- Must think through when time for interest rate increase
[08:19] {Threei} - USD rebound and lower gold prices suggest confidence in FED on inflation
[08:19] {Threei} - Inflation remains a concern despite anemic economic growth
[08:19] {Threei} - takes FOMC statement at face value, sees risks on both sides
[08:34] {Threei} An analyst at Goldman Sachs said overnight that the possibility of $150- $200/barrel oil prices seems increasingly likely over the next 6-24 months, and as a result raised their 2008 oil price forecast to $108 from $96, and raised the 2009 oil price forecast raised to $110 from $105.

[10:56] {GeoArb} easier to predict immediate shortterm

[10:57] {Threei} double bottom, consolidation under 1970 for NQ, break
[10:57] {Threei} I use it for RIMM read,

[10:58] {Threei} whatever
[10:58] {Threei} we find our plays

[08:02] {Threei} 05/01/08 08:51pm [VNDA] Caris & Company Initiates VNDA with Buy, price target: $22
[08:02] {Threei} hmmm
[08:08] {hawkfan4} hmmm, optomistic
[08:09] {Threei} alternatively... analyst forgot to take his medications
[08:09] {hawkfan4} lol, :) you're probably on to something there
[08:09] {Threei} notice time of upgrade
[08:10] {hawkfan4} a few coctails after work and access to his computer
[08:10] {Threei} what, he sat with friends at the bar, suddenly realized there is this great stock he urgently needs to upgrade?
[08:11] {Threei} grabbed his blackberry and started typing frantically?
[08:11] {hawkfan4} hee, it is a funny picture!
[08:11] {hawkfan4} "i'm gonna say 20...wait, no...22!"
[08:12] {Threei} well, i was 22 just last summer...
[08:12] {Threei} it
[08:15] {Threei} what justy happened?
[08:15] {Threei} numbers in 15 min
[08:18] {_aosdaveg} morning
[08:18] {Threei} hey
[08:20] {hawkfan4} morning dave, Chicago weather not so bad, eh? at least today
[08:21] {hawkfan4} 8:15 Fed takes measures to address 'persistent liquidity pressures'
[08:21] {hawkfan4} Expands TSLF collateral to include AAA asset-backed securities.
[08:21] {hawkfan4} i think that's what spiked things
[08:22] {Threei} and tanked 2 min later
[08:22] {Threei} smacks of desperation
[08:25] {_aosdaveg} got completely soaked this morning walking from the bus to the building
[08:26] {hawkfan4} oops, raining downtown? was just outside, nice here in the burbs
[08:26] {_aosdaveg} spring shower
[08:26] {hawkfan4} ah
[08:28] {_aosdaveg} was gorgoeus yesterday

[08:31] {_aosdaveg} holy sheesh
[08:31] {Threei} CHANGE IN MANUFACTURING PAYROLLS: -46K V -35KE
- Prior Nonfarm Payrolls revised from - 80K to -81K
[08:32] {Threei} my 2000 target hit
[08:33] {Threei} where are all those underperforming funds... they can hire me for measly 50 mil a year, couple of such calls will make them 10x that amount
[08:33] {hawkfan4} nice Vad, impressive call especially considering what was going on at the time
[08:34] {Threei} actually... exactly because of what was going
[08:34] {Threei} with all the doom and gloom headlines, market refusing to make new lows and starting to form all kinds of bottom formations
[08:34] {Threei} double bottom, confirmed
[08:35] {Threei} inverted cup and handle, failed
[08:35] {Threei} inverted head and shoulders, confirmed
[08:35] {Threei} after 1900 break there was nothing but thin air till 2000... and extremely bearish sentiment in all the news, headlines, discussions, analysis
[08:35] {Threei} {shrug}
[08:35] {Threei} never fails
[08:36] {Threei} if you read last blog post... you know :)
[08:36] {hawkfan4} i did :)
[08:36] {Threei} hey, VNDA is firmly on its way to 22

[08:42] {hawkfan4} 2100 by lunch?
[08:45] {Threei} lol
[08:51] {Threei} April 9:
[08:51] {Threei} [09:07] {Threei} if we hold roughly 1840 NQ support and close in green on improving volume, another "against the common sense rally" is likelt to start

[08:51] {Threei} [09:10] {Threei} critical range lies between 1840 and 1900

[10:54] {Threei} next spike should take it into 4.40
[10:56] {Threei} RBC on RIMM:
[10:56] {Threei} - RIM Reinventing Itself. The new form factor, a departure from its traditional keyboard handsets, is ,in our view, a prelude to a significant product cycle expanding RIM's handset lineup, particularly for additional market segments and consumers.
[10:56] {Threei} - It shows RIM is unafraid of reinventing itself to target competitive opportunities. In our view, RIM is positioning itself for significantly larger market opportunities beyond its traditional base.
[10:56] {Threei} - RBC sees RIM's growth outperforming peers in CY08, given:
[10:56] {Threei} 1) Accelerating Smartphone Market with share gains; 2) sustained competitive advantages; 3) product catalysts (including 3G/touchscreen); 4) international expansion; 5) operating leverage; 6) high ROI/'stickiness' of Blackberry.

[12:08] {Threei} come on RIMM, next piush
[12:08] {Threei} half out +.44
[12:12] {Threei} this is one amazing market
[12:13] {Threei} huge selloff yesterday, just as big snapback today
[12:14] {hawkfan4} volume still looks pretty low
[12:21] {Threei} I wouldn't put too much significance in yesterday's volume spike
[12:21] {Threei} feds day
[12:22] {Threei} FSLR feels to me like reversed the trend... no call, can't control risk on this one
[12:22] {Threei} I'd be surprised if it made new lows today
[12:23] {Threei} but then again... I've been surprised before
[12:39] {Threei} good boy RIMM
[12:39] {Threei} ourt most +.93
[12:40] {Threei} just 100 shares left, mostly out of curiosity

[13:01] {_aosdaveg} i'm in Chicago
[13:02] {Threei} that's where you've been last time we've seen you
[13:02] {_aosdaveg} california kicked me out
[13:02] {Threei} who could blame them
[13:02] {_aosdaveg} oh yeah
[13:02] {_aosdaveg} lol
[13:03] {Threei} chaeron personally petitioned governor
[13:03] {_aosdaveg} :)
[13:03] {Chaeron} I was just about to type that I started the movement
[13:03] {Threei} sheesh FSLR
[13:06] {_aosdaveg} sorry i left so abruptly, had a bit of an issue happenin'
[13:07] {Threei} resolved now?
[13:08] {_aosdaveg} yup!
[13:08] {Threei} chaeron
[13:08] {Threei} do you forgive him?
[13:08] {Threei} {Chaeron} sure, buit he stays out of california

[13:17] {Threei} NA is adjusted for car, by its structure and by scarce public transportation
[13:17] {_aosdaveg} 13000 stops hit
[13:17] {Threei} and it's not like you can just decide to change it and change it
[13:19] {Threei} remember I said two or three weeks ago that once 1900 NQ is broken, there is nothing to keep it from 2000
[13:19] {Threei} about 20 points left
[13:24] {Threei} RIMM didn't even try to approach day high while NQ tagged 1980
[13:24] {Threei} watching for short setup
[13:25] {Threei} two resistance levels, .50 and .70
[13:25] {Threei} usua RIMM pattern is to break first one on bounce but stays under another
[13:25] {Threei} so ideally short would be just above .50
[13:25] {Threei} with stop .75 or so
[13:26] {Threei} in
[13:26] {Threei} fairly tight stop, comfortable
[13:27] {magoo} vad, dcc quick

[13:33] {Threei} guys, while we are waiting for Big Ben to tell us where the happiness is
[13:33] {Threei} http://www.realitytrader.com/blog/2008/04/traders-job.html
[13:42] {Threei} full room of sleeping beauties...
[13:42] * Threei slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[13:50] * Chaeron slaps Laserdave1 around a bit with a large trout
[13:51] {Threei} CSIQ unusually strong
[13:51] {Threei} not sure what gives... FSLR retreated, market too
[13:51] {Threei} usually this thing follows
[13:57] {dino} ok., dji will go to flat or slight neg., then bounce to 90, then back down,close neg.
[13:58] {patience} great post vad, just read it after finishing my daughter's income tax
[13:58] {Threei} thank you
[13:58] {patience} amount of paperwork for revenue canada is quite the reality check
[13:59] {Threei} meaning, trees be damned?
[14:00] {patience} paper for her first income tax, electronic starting next year
[14:08] {Threei} that's going to be one crazy show after Fed announcement
[14:10] {dino} hod
[14:10] {Threei} 5 min
[14:12] {Threei} playing "what I would do if I were Fed"... I'd do no cut, expressing confidence in economy, spiking USD and tanking oil
[14:12] {Threei} first knee jerk reaction would be down, then rally
[14:15] {dino} thats what i want, no change
[14:15] {Threei} me too
[14:15] {Threei} 1/4 cut
[14:15] {dino} 1/4
[14:17] {Threei} oh good... market moves in two directions at the same time
[14:17] {Threei} - Economic activity remains weak
[14:17] {Threei} - Vote was 8-2 for cut (Fisher, Plosser dissented, preferred no change in rates)
[14:17] {Threei} - Uncertainty on inflation outlook remains high, labor markets have softended, financial markets under considerable stress
[14:17] {Threei} - Notes the substantial easing of monetary policy to date should help promote moderate growth over time
[14:17] {Threei} - Inflation seen moderating but will monitor carefully
[14:19] {dino} cme 3 buck spread
[14:20] {dino} ntrs s[pike
[14:20] {dino} nah
[14:20] {Threei} - Says readings on core inflation somewhat improved, but energy, commodity prices up, some inflation expectations have risen
[14:20] {Threei} - Board vote to cut discount rate was unanimous
[14:20] {Threei} FOMC DROPS REFERENCE TO DOWNSIDE GROWTH
[14:21] {Threei} NQ chart is something
[14:22] {Threei} COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF CURRENT AND MARCH FOMC STATEMENTS: FOMC DROPS REFERENCE TO DOWNSIDE RISKS TO GROWTH
- this change in the balance of risks statement was one of the anticipated signals that the Fed is now on hold. They also added that the 'substantial' easing to dated should promote growth, again signaling that they are ready to let the cuts that are now in place to work through the economy.
[14:22] {Threei} - the rest of the statement is largely unchanged: the FOMC reiterated it will 'act as needed' to promote it
[14:23] {dino} dbtk s .58 sm, stop .81
[14:24] {Threei} SIRI AND XMSR EXTEND MERGER AGREEMENT- agreed not to exercise their rights to terminate the Merger Agreement prior to May 15, 2008. SIRIUS and XM also announced that they have agreed to further extend the merger agreement, as necessary, for rolling two week periods unless either side notifies the other of its intention not to extend.
[14:29] {dino} ok i'll say it... that's the most boring fed reaction in years
[14:30] {dino} oh mannnnnnnnnnnn, swiper. i'm glad i have a tee time in 90 minutes
[14:42] {Threei} I have to agree, this is quite unusual reaction
[14:42] {Threei} sharp spikes in both directions is normal,
[14:43] {Threei} but staying locked in relatively narrow range for so long after that is not
[14:47] {Threei} AAPL seems to be the best follower
[14:47] {Threei} when direction finally resolves, I'd use it
[14:50] {bruce} economy is stalled vad
[14:50] {bruce} without you to spend your massive nigerian wealth we're all doomed
[14:50] {bruce} recession
[14:50] {bruce} depression
[14:51] {Threei} hmmm
[14:51] {Threei} see, here is the problem
[14:51] {Threei} I spent it, even before I obtained it
