Rumor JPM Just Spiked European Equities And Talk Of Coordinated Currency Ramp

Tyler Durden's picture




 

RanSquawk notes market talk that JPM is behind the latest uptick in EU equities, and reports talk of a EUR currency buying program in place ahead of cash close. As everyone knows JPM is merely the proxy for the FRBNY. So once again, it is not surprising that global central banks refuse to permit stocks to even consider having a downtick on a day that was supposed to be a blowout courtesy of Intel (which in turn is seeing record selling into earnings strength, which has pushed the stock from being up 8% after hours to just 3% higher now).

In addition to buying Euros, will they buy sterling, krones, kunas, florints, etc?

This makes sense as JPM is a retail front for the Federal Reserve central bank. So if the Federal Reserve wants to ramp job something yet make it look like open market, JPM is the perfect vehicle. The 0% discount window is perfect for such Federal Reserve operations.

 

Remember when Alan Grayson asked Bernanke about the $500 billion he swapped with European banks and wondered who got the money? With the Federal Reserve using JPM, this is simply a workaround ramp job solution.

The markets are a joke, and the entire economy is a joke.  Certain people can print money and pay themselves fat bonuses, other people get free money to not work, and some people (the slaves) have to work for little pieces of fiat.  F this.

Hansel, you said a mouthful here:

"The markets are a joke, and the entire economiy is a joke."

Were it that it ended there my friend. This here is Ponziworld. Markets and economies are but a reflection of the character and MO of the massas of the burgeoning global plantation.

Love the outfit brotha

This Euro move is appalling! What a freakin joke! The market is ONLY up 20 points after this too... 

Manipulation is costing more & more to produce less & less results.

The markets really are amazing. The banksters will rally on now that they know the masses either are too stupid or don't care (perhaps both).

Why, why, why are "we" not surprised....the coincidence of reading "The Trillion-Dollar Conspiracy" by Jim Marrs and then looking up for moment and watching the E/J get ramped when it should be in a nosedive seems not to be much of a coincidence to me when I consider the diabolical players of this Grand Charade.

You need to post her mirror image. Her body is forming a downward trend line. Talk to the Fed. Perhaps they can help you fix this problem.

“The period we are in now is the euro’s swan song,” said FX’s Taylor. The EU’s bailout package is making “people think things are OK and maybe all will be alright. When the reality hits us in September it will be miserable. I expect the euro to go to $1 by the end of the year,” he said.

"We are scary, scary owners of euros,” , “We are keeping our fingers crossed that maybe the euro’s appreciation lasts through July and into August. But then the euro is just going to get crushed as it’s an impossible situation in Europe.”

If you don't know who is John Taylor google John Taylor + fx concepts

Meredith Whitney should married John Taylor and have lots of kids.

This Euro short farce has to unwind sometime.  Do you guys really think the Euro is going to disappear?  I don't.

Of course it won't disappear. Reports of the Euro's death have been greatly exaggerated, regardless of all the sound reasons why its a bag of shite. As previous threads have discussed, its more about what form it takes going forward, rather than its disappearance.  Lots of horse trading going on behind the scenes, as the French try to keep the lid on Germany winning the peace once and for all.

.....agree that an outright Euro death is not likely.....a newly revalued Euromark gets my vote. The Germans are experts at painting an old currency barn a new color. Deutschemark to Reichsmark ....

I don't see any explanation to this pop in the Euro other than manipulation or a 5 minute squeeze breakout. Broke out around 10:45. Take a look at Gold. Looks like someone didn't like those levels. Ouch... From straight up to straight down. Bounced off the pivot and hit it's head on yesterday's high and got smacked down.

(The chicks were smoking hot. But a guy would want to marry them, or, you know, 'marry' them I suppose ;-) ...not silence them and lock them up! So alas, they were a little too much 'Lucy & Mina' and not quite enough 'Renfield'...)

Given run up in Euro and other European currencies earlier this morning, and now US$ improve after the FOMC minutes released, do you think JPM ran it for FRBNY, knowing the FOMC minutes would hurt European currencies, so to get them up a bit first?  Otherwise, we might have seen Euro back at 1.24.  1.23 by weekend?

Oh never mind.  It's moving back up again.  More head fakes.
