Bots think that they are getting smarter.

Why the US dollar has fallen so much

Saying this in regard to the one fairly significant thing that Trump is doing that comes close to being Presidential? Such style and grace.

Trump: the meeting between myself and President Putin will take place August 15, 2025 in...

The US produces less than 30% of the world's soybeans. Chana has plenty of alternatives than to buy from a country with a very disagreeable and unpredictable decision maker.

Trump: China worried about shortage of soybeans. I hope China will quadruple orders, reducing...

Someone with a good knowledge of monetary economics would be good. I don't read anyone talking about money supply or the velocity of money etc. Powell certainly couldn't. He was a lawyer. I have read Miran, who should, but doesn't. Bernanke did. ...

Bessent leads a broad search for Fed chair that includes Bullard and Sumerlin: Reuters

Friedman went much further - he thought that the Fed should be abolished. It could be replaced with a computer program, automatically buying and selling securities in response to changes in the money supply (specifically M2).

Abolish the monarchy at the Federal Reserve

The Fed is part of the executive arm of the government (despite what the author asserts, and struggles a lot to find reasons for his stance. Fail).

Abolish the monarchy at the Federal Reserve

That could be interesting depending on what type of monarch. I like King Louis XIV of France who once said "I am the State" - now similar to Saudi Arabia. No need to have the consent of the legislature. That's the Donald. Or, via the divine right of ...

Abolish the monarchy at the Federal Reserve

Uh-huh.

Trump: Tariffs are having a huge positive impact on the Stock Market

I trade options. A lot. More than a passing interest in volatility is essential. Outside of some Time Series methods which are OK but designed more for economic analysis/forecasting rather than trading, I gave up on trying to predict volatility a ...

Trump: Reciprocal tariffs take effect at midnight tonight! Billions of dollars will start...

As someone who often trades CME FX options a quite lot this is only good news - for liquidity. A pity it is predominately in the EUR/USD, as I'd like to see other pairs a whole lot more liquid. Oh well.

What Do We Know About Hedge Fund Activity in FX Options?

Wasn't there a whole matter of getting official gold reserves audited, about a year or so ago? Was that Trump? The angle being that the confiscated gold was never returned and is now and always has been registered as official reserves. Something ...

Oh, could be worse - the US had just been through about a whole decade or so of prohibition....

US hits one-kilo gold bars with tariffs in blow to refining hub Switzerland

This is incorrect. I did not say will. Or in capitals, WILL. This is a public forum, and others can see that you obviously have difficulty reading, so people should be gentle with you. Only you may call other people stupid. I can't recall mentioning ...

Trump: Tariffs are having a huge positive impact on the Stock Market

What are the monikers of those who come to Forex Factory every single day calling for a crash? Or are they like you who hide behind a pathetic MAGA bot name?

Trump: Tariffs are having a huge positive impact on the Stock Market

Technically, both a King (Monarch) and a President hold the same function as being the head of the Executive/Administrative arm of government. Modern monarchs are relatively harmless. Possibly the most well known one is that of the UK, with King ...

Already anticipating who to blame if anything goes wrong. I could have used another word instead of the word if.

Trump: Tariffs are having a huge positive impact on the Stock Market

"He is understood to be someone with an easing bias, but he has the credibility that could keep long-term yields anchored and keep flows into the dollar well supported," Schamotta said. I am not quite sure what anchored means (high I think), but the ...

Dollar gains on report Waller favored for Fed head

Yes. And that is exactly why I place near zero weight on fundamentals in my trading. For example, I just did a small Mexican Peso thing about an hour and a half ago. I know absolutely nothing about Mexico. It matters not. I was only updating my ...
