fxsport commented Dec 9, 2022China finds another way to undermine USA energy dominance in Asia. This is a REALLY big deal; WHY? What do we use to trade oil in today - US DOLLARS. When the DXY goes up it makes crude "cheaper" but when USD falls oil prices rise to compensate the ...

fxsport replied Dec 7, 2022Ok back on the bull train - for today... image I'm expecting PA to test Monday's high. The decrease in labor costs will give the FED room to only raise 0.5%. (Personally I want a 0.75% just to get it done and over with).
