$20k for a hotdog in the eye at ball

annatimone Posted 1 Nov  in #Miss Dukascopy 2013 #Trading #Oil #Economy #Gold #Us #Baseball #Hotdog #Sport
A baseball fan is suing the Kansas City Royals after a mascot lobbed a hotdog that hit him in the eye. The poor bloke had to have two operations to fix his peeper and it’s still not right. Baseball clubs are covered if a ball hits a spectator but courts overturned an early hearing saying that he should have been paying attention. The appeal said that while you should expect a ball to hit you you should be expecting a hotdog. The case is ongoing.
Given how much people eat at baseball games I’m su…

A wonderful celebration that now has huge significance for all religions across the whole country. Thanks are given for the harvest, and lights are lit. And many sweets are eaten!The festival celebrates the victory of good over evil, light over darkness and knowledge over ignorance, and that’s something we can all hope for in these markets!

How Will the Syria Conflict Affect the Markets?

annatimone Posted 10 Set  in #Miss Dukascopy 2013 #Forex #Syria #Russia #Oil #Currencies #Markets #Assad #Kerry
How Will the Syria Conflict Affect the Markets? Without a doubt, the situation in Syria is having an effect on the markets. Specifically, the threat of a US military intervention is affecting the price of oil in particular. For example, oil prices have slowly increased in price since the US government made it known that a military strike on Syria is likely to occur. Syria’s Effect on the Price of Oil While Syria produces a modest amount of oil at approximately 180,000 barrels per day, the count…

United Nations: The inspection team has now arrived on site in Syria after 2 days of delays. Bank Ki-Moon says inspection team “needs time to do its job” in Syria. Whether the US, UK and France will wait for their findings remains to be seen. UN envoy Brahimi says international law is clear that UN Security Council resolution is needed for military action. That hasn’t exactly stopped it previously has it? Also, a UN nuclear watchdog report says Iran has expanded its uranium enrichment program a…

What is Next for Syria?

annatimone Posted 22 Ago  in #Miss Dukascopy 2013 #Syria #Chemical Weapons #Russia #Oil #Middle East #Assad #Iraq #Iran
I don’t want to be too negative, but the escalation of violence in Syria is one of the scariest things I have come across since the Bay of Pigs Invasion! If the Assad regime is confirmed as using chemical weapons in an attack on the population - which allegedly has killed around 1000 people – the political ramifications could be huge. President Obama has already said that such an attack would signify a crossing of `the red line` and this morning, France has insinuated that force may well be nee…

one thing must be done. get off with any plans from Syria. stop financing or arming any islamist fanatics. Your neo-fascist regime now testing the patience of the rest of the world. Everything has been completely tired of your "care." Stop the policy of double standards and engage better with your internal problems, before it is too late, before you are not at the beginning of the same, that you have arranged in Libya, Egypt and Syria.

I think this whole terrorist rigmarole is first and foremost a chimera created by the western intelligence services, mostly British and US. You should read “The Age of Oil’ by Leonardo Maugeri. The Americans where losing the war, their planted well paid foreign mercenaries were switching sides. This is what they need to sell to the rest of the world to justify an invasion.

And of course, nothing like beating up on another country to distract people from issues at home, the US is hardly in a position to preach morality to the rest of the world and unfortunately for Syrians, Syria is just the easy-ish target of the moment which satisfies multiple political agendas. The pretence that Obama gives two squats about individual Syrians is a laughable facade and in any case, there was compelling evidence that it was the rebels who used the chemical weapons.

Commodity Trading in Jeopardy as Fed Reviews Policies

annatimone Updated 28 Lug  in #Miss Dukascopy 2013 #Federal Reserve #Oil #Energy #Commodities #Capital #Banks #Metal #Commodities Trading #Prices
The Federal Reserve is considering reversing decade-old rule allowing banks to ship oil and storing metal. How it could influence commodity trading? If the Federal Reserve reverses the rule allowing banks ship oil and store metal, it would be the biggest exclusion of banks from a market and it would put banks commodity-trading business in jeopardy. Most likely, commodity prices would stabilized or even go lower, because of the heavy impact it will have on banks. And for the banks, it woul…

Obama liquid part of the financial liberalization of Clinton?
the answer is complicated and deserves his previous reflection.

Entire financial and subprime mortgage crisis definitely linked back go Alan Greenspan. Greenspan kept extremely low interest rates for a long time, encouraged people to buy/invest in housing, give a lot of freedom (and closing Fed’s eyes) to banks activities and list goes on and on. First of all, banks need to fix their balance sheets to get rid of bad assets and than everything else should come (capital requirements, separation of activities and such).

What do you think about Brazil?

Happy Monday!.. I thought I would start Monday with a puzzling question. Any thoughts about Brazil? Brazil raised key interest rate a half-point to 8.5 pct. Do you think it’s good or bad for Brazil? I think it will slow down Brazilian economy, because raising interest rates will slow down exports. The higher costs of living for some or, more precisely, higher cost survival for most is unavoidable. Especially, small businesses will feel the impact and suffer tremendously. Politica…
