AUY To Top @ 24.4...?

What is the Question....This or That?

FedWheelin...

Just like any proper four wheeling adventure: While the Fed navigates along the bumpy market bottoms, most of the deepest holes to oblivion will only be visible as we're steered around them. It can seem quite scary staring down at dark puddles that could flip your entire vehicle right-upside down, and to make it worse - the Fed's and Market people are only human too - they have to play around a little for LearninSake - this means a few minor holes are steered into with vigor as we bounce around the catastrophic ones - even an occasional hole in the road where no major one is being averted at all - a seemingly simple YeeHa maneuver resulting to bounce some people out the back of the truck - a residual resilient exhilarant effect leftover from experiencing scared people jumping off on previous deliberate recovery bounces, but when those thought the vehicle was going to flip and sometimes with a same driver didn't in fact not letting down...and no flip occurred at all...

Don't be a jumper - never go off the Truck...!!!

Fueling up the Truck is a continuous Effort...

watch for new lows on AUY for re-entry opportunities...
Looking @ Levels:
9.4 ~ 10.3 ~ 11.2 ~ 12.1 ~ 13 ~ 13.9 ~ 14.8|

I like AUY @ 12.1...
...am comfortable up to 14.8
but am sold at levels of late...

Seeking the Long Haul...

on short notice...my favorite place to be lost in the midst of tribulations aligned with better realities all around...let's face it...we're now in the most volatile stock market that has ever existed, yet so many entities are reaching all time record levels of stability across their stranded quantum footprints...

the best thing to do here is to focus on the best of the best - buy the dips and squirrel away your expectations - find your way to an employer who is headed for better excellence --> buckle up and launch yourself into the existential spread across quanta-space.time framework laid before you...

Now is the time to ready for a long running expansion of contracted entities which compress the collective Jing of their entire industries through fulfillment of internally developing maturation concurrently with intrinsically enhanced consolidate growth...

If you put your life there you'd need a reason better to invest...? - so if you aren't supporting your own interests - now is the time to start...think about increasing your proportion of new investment to your own companies stock...or what are you doing with your life...I certainly wish that was an easy question to answer...but it's not, so close one eye at a time so you can't gain a fully visual impact of this mostly painful market that will inevitably become a transparently invisible blip in the history of our charts...

Slowly targeting bottom impact events on the following stocks which are showing their Bounce along the bottom...==>try to buy these near-to below their recent lows...::

Oh Misery Oh Misery...
what the selling does to me...

Bottoms Up...!!!

BOOM +6 points ... Darn - this one is on the shopping list...the problem with shopping lists is that without money to shop they're nothing more than lists...

If you missed your date with a bottom-dwelling darling, don't worry - there will be plenty of traders playing this bottom...


everyone knows that bottoms are rough and a lot of bouncing is likely - so, when 5 to 10 point moves hurl these Ghetto-Fabulous stocks off the bottom, traders will be chopping out profits and creating more buying opportunities...There should be plenty of trading channels developing along the way back up toward the Pacific Heights where stocks will eventually be once they've finally made their way back home following the recession fest...So, for major stocks which have great economic stories - buying on the major dips should offer high likelihoods for rapid profitable trading opportunities... excellent insulation against downside risk is inherently intrinsic to bottom bouncing trades...think about it..if you were being dragged along the bottom and pushed around, you'd bounce up every now and then when the pushing pulls and the bottom contours aligned, combined, and applied their forces to propel you upwardly...since you had been sinking and are still oriented for travel in that direction it takes a few bounces to even get you re-oriented to optimize upward traveling following a push-pull-collide-bounce event...The Key Here IS that when you come back down to ready for another jettison experience - You Hit A Bottom and Stop Falling...so traders love this...they will be buying and popping and selling over and over again...once the push-pull forces start to get stronger and the stocks are comfortably aligned for upward travel they will no longer fall all the way to the bottom anymore, but rather come to rest before reaching the bottom and remain buoyant there until the next move up - falling less and less after each burst as they move farther and farther from bottom - this is not to imply you shouldn't expect the bottom not to drop successively...if the bottom is a slope going down and you are bouncing along in the downward sloping direction - guess what - you can still know you won't fall forever while realizing you are falling lower each time just to get to the SAME BOTTOM.....example - i will not be surprised if Apple sees 118.35 or even as low as 101.42 if things DRAG Along Long Enough before propellants are powerful enough to launch it from the Bottomousphere out into the Profosphere...

Short Term Trading Opportunities Abound:
While the market was BOTTOMING UP - took positions in:
AAPL 128
PBR 90
AUY 14.75

These look great right now, but the lows could be tested again and instant profits can fall off faster than they fell in...expect this to repeat in the short term - up and down - over and over - off and in --

Snorkeling Fringelessly Around the Seas of Prosperities

notice that the Fed's couldn't just leave rates alone in the first place...so that the people who signed loans could continue to operate their micro-economies utilizing the loan products provided to them to work in the interest rate environment for which they were designed...this is all just a way to generate more churn as currency goes in and out of economic flows...instead of just having money jumping in and out of the stock market like a porpoise in the sea, the intentions here seem to be to make dramatic transitions from porpoise to bird - bird to porpoise - stocks to real estate - real estate to stocks - and other investments types - this kind of major rate manipulation stabbing and slicing at American businesses and investors is what continues to keep the flows of all financial markets headed for the most part in the same direction...We obviously are experiencing major turbulences in the flows at the moment therefore many currents are driving values all over the place - some where they would normally never go and when flows begin to return to normal, these values will tend to be carried back toward their original path...identifying these and where to get in as they circle around the Eddies & Tides of this reverse osmosis market the Fed's have delivered to us in testing all their fancy Global Monetary Transporter Influologies on World Economic Flows...

It seems that now the global flow is also being stirred and reverted --> wealth is transitioning all over the world right now --> mostly fundage seems to have been flowing away from the US and now it's coming back...to buy the remaining assets which are tied more directly to the physical properties and attributes of American entities.

The Market is Like a Griddle Full of Pancakes...

They have to be flipped eventually and when they are ... there is always a momentary lapse in predictability while they hover in the air halfway upside down...at this moment some of the batter which is not completely cooked from the last heat-trend exposure goes flying off the sides - some batter droplets luckily land precariously on the sides of the skillet other's land right in the flames...until the pancake lands successfully on the uncooked side, revealing an unburned bottom and beginning to cook on the new side, no one is willing to commit to any condimentary or pancake futures...I mean really - would you buy into plates and syrup if you didn't even know if the pancake was going to crash and burn on the flip...

So what kind of pancakes is the US cooking at the moment...Blueberry, Strawberry, Blackberry...mmmm.....no

We've been serving up WarBerry pancakes, election beignets, and iPhone waffles...etc etc, now we're flipping some war pancakes and everyone wants to know where the burned spots are and if the other side is ready to cook - is the heat too high, which contracts are getting lost in the flip etc

Sprint pancake got flipped right into the fire...apple's iPhone was expected to displace 350,000 sprint customers but the flip revealed a big BURN - 638,000 lost customers and they are trying to blame it on the recession --> sorry Nextel --> Millennium Fashion demands Walkie talkies with color screens...!

Maybe when the AT&T pancake lands this week --> their underbelly earnings will be buttery, glistening, and golden brown --> their cakes extra plump with spill-over dough from the reckless Sprint-Nextel flip-out...!

Bounces Abounding...

If normal laws of physics apply when the ground is reached a falling ball will bounce...

If a full bounce happens now:
FRO ~ 40.289 ~ 44.678 ~| 37.24 is a strong position in FRO --> owning FRO below 37.24 is a boon for long term investors...the latest run will be completed diminished if FRO drops below 29.26...

Bigger Implications...

The Mac Book Air - what a beautiful work of art --> until the flip-out connectors flip out...

anyway - once again - it's not about the product but rather its interconnections among other products together with the experience while doing so...

this AirBook Mac probably creates an equivalent difference of presence in your hands as that of a beautifully hard-bound book printed with 100% acid free materials does from an airport floor-novel paperback.....

The iTunes connected to the MacAir - the Mac Air connected to the Air Extreme - the Air Extreme connected to the Time Capsule - the Time Capsule Connected to all the local Macs & back to the Air Extremes -Do See DO and round we go - spin yur Apple round the barn - etc etc very circular here....

What'd Ya Do...?

SO Far -->

stop buying AUY @ 17

Apple on the Cheap from Here to Profit...

Apple below 169 is as close to a sure good deal as you one could hope to get; that is if one is sure that the position is sustainable against forced selling pressure trying to unwind market longs...


apple could easily drop to 153ish average bottom level..layering in positions starting at below 169 is a strategy not depending on guessinghte correct bottom here...

144 should be the ultimate tail winded end of the bottoms underbelly if awful selling misery persists in sickening the markets...

zAp pole Fur Ya...

the lackluster trading activity so far this year has been lackening luster at an excelararming rate --> fiendishly frothing in gold but pairing away slowly at the stars of the show - like Apple...

Apple has been weak leading up to MacWorld - where the last 2 years there was strength at these stages preceding MacWorld, followed by Sell Offs....!

maybe this year the opposite will unfold...a reverse flow...duldrums up to the MacWorld ...et voila...Steve Jobs unveils the tip of yet another digit on the hands of macoliferation, an enormous thumb sprout...I have said this before and I will add it to this blog...Apple TV will be HUGER than anyone expected...it was merely intended to approach infancy...eventually aTV will easily tie in to the interconnecting web of apple devices, operating environments, applications, and content...users are directly buying commodity items such as hardware, software, content..etc, but experience achieved while using Apple's various product entities can never be made into a commodity due to the complexity of intrinsically interdependent interconnections which are inherently imposing influences indiscriminately on the user before during and after use of any Apple device... - which you are paying for one way or another ... because at this point yu cannot buy anything without some of yur money supporting someone's goal to save for either an Apple product or some Apple stock...

that will be the next fun app on the iphone - after you make a purchase you get to see all the different places your money diverges to through your merchants accounts...

a sudden pop tomorrow following Steve Job's KeyNote and hopefully on and up and away like a b e a u t FULL Balloon -->

“But the Fed is responsible not only for the national economy. It is responsible for defending the dollar, which represents the real savings and wealth of the nation. And that dollar has lost more value in seven years than in any similar period in modern history. A euro, worth 83 cents the year Bush was elected, has risen in value to $1.47. “

Here in lies the dilemma – the dollar value is tied to interest rates if we lower rates too low to save the credit universe we risk overdoing it and destroying the currency universe – if interest rates get too low – there will be no foreign investing in our paper products and a run on our goods – driving us back toward a manufacturing society and away from being a services and high-finance capital-centric society

The Crash of 2008?
by Patrick J. Buchanan

In March 1929, the Harding-Coolidge era came to an end. The eight years had witnessed the greatest peacetime prosperity of any nation in history: America in the Roaring Twenties. Early that March, Calvin Coolidge handed the presidency over to Herbert Hoover, who had just pulled off a third straight Republican landslide.

"I do not choose to run," said Coolidge, who could easily have won a second full term. Silent Cal went home. Hoover, whom he privately derided as "Wonder Boy," presided over the Crash of '29 and the first three years of the Great Depression.

History holds Harding, Coolidge and Hoover responsible for the Depression, with Treasury Secretary Andrew Mellon, and Reed Smoot and Willis Hawley of Smoot-Hawley fame, as accessories. As Voltaire observed, history is a pack of lies agreed upon.
Two men debunked the myth that the low-tax, high-tariff policy of the 1920s brought on the Depression. The more famous is Milton Friedman, who proved to the satisfaction of a Nobel Prize committee that the Depression was a monetary phenomenon. The Fed had opened the sluices, and the money had swamped the stock market.

When Wall Street crashed, there came a run on the banks by men who had bought on margin, a depositors' stampede, a bank collapse, a wipeout of uninsured savings and the loss of a third of the money supply, lifeblood of the economy. The Fed never gave the nation the needed transfusions. Hoover and FDR, misdiagnosing the crisis, raised taxes and wrote up new regulations, which was like putting a body cast on a patient in shock from the loss of a third of his blood.

The Smoot-Hawley myth, repeated by John McCain in the Detroit debate, was demolished by Alfred Eckes of Ohio University, Reagan's man at the FTC and America's foremost authority on the history of trade and tariffs, in his 1995 "Opening America's Markets."

The point of this brief history: The recent hand-off from Alan Greenspan, the maestro of the Global Economy, to Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke may turn out to have been a lateral far behind the line of scrimmage, leaving Bernanke holding the bag for a recession for which he is no more responsible than was the hapless Hoover.

Last week, the stock market saw 4 percent of its value wiped out. Oil reached nearly $100 a barrel. The dollar fell to record lows against the Canadian dollar and the euro. The price of gold was $850 an ounce, signaling inflation and a worldwide lack of confidence in the Fed's ability or determination to defend the world's reserve currency.

The Chinese, with $1.4 trillion in reserves, perhaps 80 percent in dollar assets, indicated they may dump dollars and move into euros. Merrill-Lynch took an $8 billion hit. Citibank is signaling massive losses from its subprime mortgage debt. General Motors reported an operating loss of $1.6 billion for the quarter and a whopping $39 billion charge that is among the biggest profit hits ever reported

Where does this leave Bernanke? On the horns of a dilemma.

Exposure of all that subprime debt going rotten on the books of our biggest banks, the staggering losses being reported, the inability of homeowners to refinance or borrow any further against their equity, the credit crunch -- all argue for an easy money policy to get capital back into the economic bloodstream.

Thus the Fed has cut interest rates from 5.25 percent to 4.5 percent, thus the howls for deeper cuts, thus the market anticipation of another cut, though the Fed has said no more.
But the Fed is responsible not only for the national economy. It is responsible for defending the dollar, which represents the real savings and wealth of the nation. And that dollar has lost more value in seven years than in any similar period in modern history. A euro, worth 83 cents the year Bush was elected, has risen in value to $1.47.

As the dollar sinks, exporters may cheer rising sales, but at home we will soon find that the prices of all those imported goods from Europe and Asia down at the mall are starting to rise. U.S. soldiers, diplomats, tourists and businessmen overseas are already feeling the pain of a falling dollar.

If a recession is generally a sign the Fed should loosen up, a run on the dollar is a sign the Fed should tighten by raising interest rates to make dollars and dollar-denominated assets more attractive.

But the Fed's raising of interest rates would push up the rates on mortgages, credit cards and auto loans, and push millions of marginal folks into bankruptcy and the country into recession, a disaster for the Republicans.

But, given their free-trade fanaticism and free-spending ways, that fate would not be undeserved. Say a prayer for Ben Bernanke. He may have to eat the football that scrambling quarterback Greenspan tossed to him far behind the line of scrimmage.

Eagle Update

various new precision oriented interaction boundaries are forming an age characterized with applications fueled by data...data is becoming the oil resource of the future already, and applications, ships and jet's providing varieties of well defined and accurately executed, valid and reliable roles...securing assets...facilitating our economic expansions, contractions, and interactive complexities...or...applications propagating intrinsic innovation exponentially along neural-processing architectures structured to channel data into and out of databases while altering its attributes, properties, and characteristics - much like a refinery...

this is truly becoming the age of application centric flows among socio-economic entities "intermersed" globally throughout most technologically capable ecosystems...

Warning -- Alert -- Beware -- Watch Out --~!

Bag Url or have a frown...

Big Oil --> will continue to help those who stockpile oil to do so and with fervor.

these Oil's are real sports...they bend over backwards for customers who steer ships and fly jets all over the world on their behalf protecting their assets while pumping money into their bank accounts & siphoning money out of macro economies like a defense tax built into transportation and manufacturing CAS's...those same jet-setters also stockpile oil for fuel - just in case there is an emergency they will still be able fly around protecting acquisitions of more stockpiles for the next emergencies...you see - once added to the competitive nature of countries attempting to sequester ever larger & larger stockpiles au'lunedeautre ... hee hee hee -- it's brilliant..this way when we find out that OIL is way way way to valuable to burn...?...there will at least still be some left in our stockpiles...

in not so many words as above...which aren't really anything more than accurate conveyances void of any reliability or validity...

Apple in the house...

look for strong shelf levels on apple

buying apple at levels listed below is likely to lead to profits considering indicators in the immediate earth environment - no reason to mention outer space or anything, which is where this stock seems destined to go:
AAPL - 186.33 ~ 169.7 ~ 153.07


More Price Activity Experimental Guess Calculation Results:
180.77 ~ 182 ~ 183.23 ~ 184.46 ~ 185.69 ~ 186.33 ~ 186.92 ~ 184.28 ~ 182.23 ~ 180.78...etc... ~ 175.24 ~ 178.93 ~ 182.63
AAPL probable MAJOR upper technical Near-Term-Bounds (up to 18 months)... ~ 203.3 ~ 269 ~|
depending on fanatacisms the above pattern could be phase shifted up or down - experimental calculations have not been applied to determine possible phase boundaries...or, it could be upside down --> I repeat myself when under stress...which is what I'll be if this patter presents upside down --> which is apparently about 40% likely...
many smaller bounds are abounding in and among the bounds bounded above...

it would appear that psycho-social, economic, and trend elements will be in place and achieve direct,proximal, &or collateral market climax momentum runs sometimes up to and into the next 1.5 to 3 years which make this investment at these levels attractive in terms of propensities toward maximizing desired outcomes...I will spare you the details...

be sure to leave yourself room for trading volatility &or options around your CORE position-->Which is NEVER to be SOLD...!!!

Petrobras Energia and the Great Snaffu...

Hee Hee - the press incorrectly credited this little high-spec offshoot of Petroleo Brasileiro with PBR's patent to some billions of barrels of sweet light crude just off the Brazilian coast...

now that PZE is unfolding to the tune of the truth --> all they really have is a bunch of gas stations in non-capitalist countries which are fed buy PZE owned and operated refineries...

What's the mention - well --> the market needs to normalize and all re-regulation cycles involving human emotion driven factors, whether charted individually or collectively as is done for trading activities, will show repeating patterns of over corrections and re-corrections that seem to diminish harmonically....

so - PZE went way up on lies - all lies --!!!
Media tells it how it is...& PZE goes from "all swelt-up to roly poly" in a matter of minuets.

there should be a deep dive here that undoes reality and must be re-corrected -->

PZE could trade as low as 5.97 but will work it's way back to test 13 eventually...

I will watch for these levels and see if they appear...
PZE
if major resistance here possible bounce to .. then followed by harmonically diminishing re-corrections
11.82 - 13.38-13.77 (13.38-13.77 - 11.56-11.3) (11.3-11.56 - 12.08-12.34) (12.08-12.34 - 11.65-11.82) etc etc etc
10.65 - normalizing downwardly - resistance here leads bounce to - 12.21-12.6
9.48 - 11.04-11.43
8.31 - 9.87- 10.26
7.14 - 8.7-9.09
5.97 - 7.53-7.92

these are experimental calculations which are barely accurate at best, have no proof of reliability, and are not shown to utilize any valid methodologies...

This is extremely speculative and may be more fun to watch from the sidelines....It might actually happen to some degree here and give us a neat chart pattern representative of collective neuronal receptor re-regulation as imposed on buying and selling behaviors
