The real long term news here is the Swiss tripling the negative interest rate on deposits from -0.25% to -0.75%

That is fucking nuclear.

I don't see it as a war, just banks running around in a small boat doing what is best for them, disregarding what might be good for all. Get enoguh of them to one side and it will capsize.

The spasm frequency increases, the amplitude does as well. We are about to see a (re)birth.

Fuck the Swiss National Bank.   They should have backed the Franc 100% with gold.

 

They deserve whatever shit comes their way.

As expected, TV pundits discussing Swiss exports, currency translation, etc.  For me, the top Swiss export remains Irene Jacob, as she appeared in the two Kieslowski films in the early 90s, screen presence and acting of the highest calibre.

(RUT currently just above its 200 DMA, expect it to be supported par usual, but if not, the dislocations, margin problems, etc, must be worse than we think, and it'll be cordless bungee time.  I think the former, so covered my short.  I'm biased, as I trade it every day, but given no other major index is as close to its 200 DMA, I think the afternoon action of IWM will tell the tale of the tape today ...)

Got myself a new 1080 TV for X-mas, along with her Veronique film on Blu-Ray, and I can't wait to watch it at the higher resolution, especially the openiing, when she's singing the song with her classmates, and the rain gently caresses her face.  As with many Kieslowski scenes, absolutely sublime ...

In the hands of an experienced roofer, on "bump mode" you can get an easy 3 per second as they fall past like pinwheeling, screaming, shitting fireworks...not gonna say all will get the nail right smack in the temple, some may have to take it up the ass as is their fashion, and most likely preference....all due to the status of their spin at that moment, 32' per sec per sec and all...cant blame the shooter in a bump mode situation with an abundant supply of screaming shitting traders falling past....

Today is not the proper application for an impulse nailer...too long a recovery time needed between shots...

Paul Craig Roberts thinks this will be the year the Neo Nazi Cons will be forced to give their dream of world tyranny because most nations will move away from the dollar and all the Neocon nations have is freakin debt and weapons.

When I think of people with debt and weapons I think of danger. Could be a dangerous year.
