Happy new year to the thread and all members. I hope we are doing a "maps party" for the NFP flow , always great to read you all and especially the boss On the fundamental/ technical side Markets and expectations ...

The Really Useless Thread

On the fundamental side Markets and expectations are heavily aligned for a 25bp increase, thus a limited knee jerk reaction is expected. For the conference, a neutral/slightly hawkish FED in Wait&See mode (DJT politics ?, Congress support ? ...) ...

maybe it's another topic, but the use of a standardized keyword in sisses outlooks posts could be also very useful, we could then find them more easily in the thread. #Outlook-Gold-MT #Outlook-Dollar-ST #Outlook-US Equities-LT ...

Thanks. I'm surprised of some outlooks : I have MT/LT outlooks in DAX and MT outlook in FTSE at Sell not Neutral. Maybe we could add the links to Sisses posts at each update. Edit: I have also MT outlook in Gold at Buy not Neutral

Thank you for sharing your view. Mine is quite different as I don't think at all ECB today was extremely dovish as you said. In my view, ECB was inline/slighlty hawkish. Inline because a 6 months extension of ECB QE program without any reduction was ...

My reading is : Markets expectations for Italian referendum were a soft No, we got a hard No, but President Mattarella didn't call for elections (as it was also expected, whatever the result, as it would have opened pandoras box). Only this could ...

Thank you. I think I may have underestimated this potential triple whammy (Italy saying yes + ECB Tapering + Hikes/FED forecast) on Gold. I'm even starting to think MT outlook might switch to Neutral if planets align in the next two weeks. Anyway, ...

I don't understand why ST Outlooks in Yen and Gold remain in Soft Sell at current levels as it seems to me : Risk-Off environment is coming potentially in EZ as early as this weekend through italian votes ('No' vote being consistently ahead before ...

As FTSE 100 is heading towards a very bearish monthly close imo, I take this opportunity to post my MT and LT maps here. Of course I'm posting under the eye/supervision of our maps master Chester123 and using Sisses outlooks : LT Strong ...

As we are all in the waiting room for the next couple of hours... As tapering a QE program is a triky process and ECB has no experience about it, I am wondering how much/far ECB could model its tapering on FED's one and use it as a benchmark . Of ...

He is a nutter but do we really need to worry that much if he is elected ? US is not a Putincracy nor an Erdogancracy. I am sure it's possible to find a majority of adults among the 100 senators and the 435 representatives

We've been waiting for a second hike for a year and were even expecting two this year. A 25bp hike will be everything but exceptionnal ! Nothing hawkish ! And yes there are heavy indications !

EURIBOR / Bank Table Borrowing costs of Deutsche Bank are the worst, and it's even the only bank that has to pay to borrow over a 9 or 12M period. DB is behind Monte dei Paschi and the National Bank of Greece !
