Market Reaction? 30 Year Just Hit 3.99% As Stock Selloff Accelerates, Gold At All Time Record, Swiss Franc Flash Smashes
To see what the market thinks of the economic prospects for the economy look no farther than the 30 Year which just dropped below 4.00% and is trading at 3.99% right now. The market is effectively pricing in a major economic contraction, with long-end deflation now expected. Which means that Bernanke just got yet another carte blanche to proceed with the only thing he know. And validating it is the equity market which at last check not only did not react favorably to the Senate vote, but has been fading all the news all day, and is now trading at the lows, with the S&P, Nasdaq and Dow all down more than 1% now and plunging. Next up, even as Obama prepares to talk, everyone is once again looking at an imploding Europe which will need its second bailout in a month (and third overall) shortly... or else.
The only chart that matters is, what else, gold:
Ok fine, one more chart: USDCHF, which also just took out record lows following today's latest flash crash.

only the sheeple think the "deal" was a good thing
short the next bounce/retest of 200 and 50 DMAs of the major indices (SPX 1285, 1300). wall st wants QE3 and the only justification wiill be through holding 401ks hostage
People are forgetting: tomorrow is the better-than-expected 200,000 ADP read. (Remember last month).
if you were gonna go short the long bond, now looks like a good time to scale in.
Prepare for increased and desperate fooling with the next few months of economic reports
Gold just hit a new high in USD fiats, and also in most other major Fiats ...

Most ASIANS have been buying hand-and-fist for years, and are riding high.
Its too bad that most AMERICANS have not, having been Dumbed down by their mainstream media and WALL STREETERS...
Is USA now heading the way of SPAIN / ITALY / GREECE ???

The "sheeple" are conditioned to force complex issues into a binary of (good/bad) and my favorite (us/them).
Let me save you the trouble of replying... I am obviously "bad" and one of "them"
We don't label here remember?
Just like I a PM freak.
Some would say I'm betting against the system, BUT I DON'T!!! I'M JUST A SPECULATOR AND A COLLECTOR IF IT SUITS ME!
Agreed. Complex issues are easily retooled as good/bad binary when they are presented on an emotional playing field instead of a factual one. We can see it on MSM every day
I like to eat lambmeat. Especially on the grill with a lot of spicebutter H H HMMMMmmmm!
Last night, I had lamb chops stuffed with garlic, marinated and then cooked in a red wine, yogurt sauce with basil and rosemary. But I miss all the Casey Anthony news.
Thanks for the visual.. Yes I'm jealous... I have 2 stumps and a bloody key board for proof...!
Casey is at the Menninger clinic in Houston. Her parents are en route. Judge Strickland, who presided over her check fraud case, issued an order for her to serve one year of probation in Orlando. Her defense team is contesting it.
Now you're up to speed.
Good For Gold ...

Bet he wishes no one found this one ...
“The fact that we are here today to debate raising America ’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that our government can’t pay its own bills...that we depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to pay for our government’s reckless...policies. Leadership means ‘the buck stops here.’ Instead our Congressmen and Senators shift an overwhelming burden of their bad choices onto the backs of our innocent children and grandchildren. Americans deserve better. I will oppose all efforts to increase America's debt limit.”
-Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill.
Speech on Senate floor on his decision to vote against raising the debt ceiling during the Bush Administration.
I don't know why that wasn't shoved in his face in this debate. Or if it was I missed it. Either way, it shows the relativist nature of our politicians.
Marco Rubio read that qoute on the senate floor along with a few others. It doesn't matter......Biden has said it as well as pelosi and a mile long list of republicans.
They are all snakes!!!
My blood pressure hates you.
^^THIS
Only the sheeple...
think the economy had a recovery
think the stock market is an indicator of the real economy
think Obamao is doing a good job
think everything will come back to normal eventually
think following their favorite celebrities is more important than doing DD
the sheeple are being underestimated here. Who thinks obama's doing a good job? People know the economy is in the gutter, they don't care about the stock market, and don't have a "back to normal" outlook. The elites will be the ones caught blindsided this time since they still have a lot to lose. Everyone else is already broke.
Down goes Frazier Down goes Frazier !!!!!!!!!!!!
Dow just dipped below 12,000. No matter what Obama says, people have voiced their opinion already
Well, there's only so many times you can scream "TANKS IN THE STREETS!!" before people give you the "What Ev's" and flip you off.. I would consider this the first of many FU's. :)
Bernanke still thinks he can stop the deflation of nominal prices by deflating the purchasing power of the dollar.
Yea, so much for the consumer led recovery. What an idiot...
Meanwhile, Timmay has a sh#tload of debt to sell, so it's time to scare everyone into bonds.
Isn't he supposed to quit now that the deal is done?
Quit Timmay, QUIT!
Another political "promise" bites the dust! :>(
No, they are not going to scare people into bonds. That was yesterday's game. They are going to legislate everyone into bonds.
duplicate
Dow below 12K. Watching all these charts is more interesting right now than any movie. Maybe I'm just a nerd though.
Would rather be a nerd than to be a sheep. Fucking idiots that follow "reality television" are missing the best reality TV debt can buy - the demise of the US.
If Joe Six Pack can't have the message of dollar debasement understood from a cheerleader shaking her ass at a football game, he doesn't want to hear it. Let them bleed as far as I am concerned, along with the House of Wall Street Representative.
But, But Jim Cramer said this morning that everything is AOK, say it aint so Tyler, sayu it aint so.....
I'm gonna be rich listening to the advice of Cramerica. /sarc
snark:
Cramer tries to help you make money.
Kramer invests in gold for his charitable trust. you could probably get a job there, where they write off a healthy expsense account, company vehicle, nice office, admin, etc. All tax free. 10 weeks of vacation. When you are working, you would be taking the profits of his shrewd gold investments and giving them to some poor person which will make you feel good about yourself.
"wealth" is what the tax code tells you it is. and thats why his charitable trust makes a ton of money on gold.
Q.E.D. Ben, I am ready to take over. - wisefool PhD university of CNBC. Masters in Sociology, from other MSM outlets.
Don't forget hiring all your relatives at great salaries to "manage" the trust. Money is like incest, it's best kept in the family.
How is that different for nearly every other NGO?
They are all frauds. If they ever fixed any problems, they'd have to get a job.

What just happened to the CHF? Both against USD and EUR
CHF to the moon?
Bubble!
Fiat backed by 250 billion $ in fx reserves (USD + EUR). Who wants to own that?
Buy gold!
Backed by Nestle's chocolate bars, better than gold.
Time to roll outa equities and into T's and cash...
and gold looks down on it all from a slightly higher view.
Products of colon, meet westinghouse blades.
Just wait. Any minute congress will vote to give GE a trillion dollars to develop a shit cannon. A refuse railgun?
A continental fertilizer distribution delivery device. Or incontenent. We do have a lot of very old people. Win/win.
LOL @ CHF
Specially if you have mortgage tied to it.
Doesn't The Gov want people into Bonds right now to soak up the new supply?

Over and over again:
"If we don't do this [blank] then you will all be ruined."

"Okay, now that we got what we wanted...Surpise! You're still ruined!"
PMs loving it.
Obama has a fresh $2t to give to TBTF banks so they can purchase equities. Buy the dip.
Just wait until we get the next batch of QE disguised with some bullshit moniker. Market to the moon but PMs to infinity. Got to buy some of both.
And the "satan sandwich" kicks the can just far enough for him to get back to his taxpayer supported fundraising tour.
So the President's remarks will be postponed, then?
Buy the rumor, sell the Armageddon?
Who in the hell wants a 3.99% yeild for the next 30 years?
Hold a bond for 30 years? I thought you just bought them so you can flip them to the Fed 2 weeks after they're issued for a cool 8%.
You make a good point if qe3 targets the long end so government can fund over 30 years.
This is the very question I've been asking. Nothing adds up here... you can't convince me that there isn't some kind of outside force interfering in the treasury market right now. No QE, more debt, fewer revenues/receipts, and yet prices are higher on bonds?
Only option left is to print.....here comes the end game.

The POG was only $3.70 from Jim Sinclair's vindication of $1650. Can we hit it today? Will Jim be opening the bottle he has been saving for 8 months? Did someone drop the rotating wind accelerator into the unflushed porcelain throne?
UPDATE: We did it! Cheers to Jim Sinclair! I'm going to his site right now to see what he's saying...
Did AUD do(A) reach around>>>? I should have set my sights lower... Oh well some interest on my longs in the low 1.08's is refreshing.

Anybody see Robot. :-)
Robo ........COME DOWN OFF THE ROOF and buy damn you. BUY BUY BUY.
THIS is YOUR generational BUY right here.
I'm expecting Bernanke to break out the fiscal stimulus lobbying hat and, at the same press conference, talk about the danger of fiscal deficits.
It's time for the big contributors to dust off their wish lists.
PLEASE TYLER...can we be told in advance on ZH when Bernanke is going to speak. I've been caught unawares the last two times.
We all want to go long PM's in the morning before he starts speaking!!!
As long as S&P does not close below 1268, the technicals of the bull market are still in place.
Technicals smechnicals, this market answers only to Ben, and HE DOES NOT SHARE POWER
Technicals or testicals? Methinks this "bull" is a steer! Whole thing is "deja moo"! (Somewhere, I've heard this bull before!")
<--I'm buying this dip
<--I'm scared, I'm out of all stocks
-1190 TICK
TRIN over 3.00
If the market reverses and closes over the 200-day, then the lows are in

$2t in fresh money, stolen from future generations. $2t that the President knows he needs to give to TBTF banks to buy equities to keep the boomers' 401Ks and IRAs afloat, as well as give handouts to welfare queens if he wants to be re-elected?
Buy the fucking dip.
probably correct up until the election (if they can maintain the house of cards) but after that, equities will be sacrificed upon the alter of ponzi
This dip or the one below 1,230 or 1,220 on SPX?
so after telling the board repeatedly he was "itching to get short" (few thinkers believed him) below 1300 the 'tard tells us he in fact rode his widows and orphans all the way down and is now doubling down with some obscure paper trade he'll tell us about after it has gone up.
you know your charts well amigo. don't see many zh'ers that watch trin, know what i mean.
we've probably been some of the same places learning all these indicators.
<-- Robo is an idiot who only lists options that hide his idiocy
<-- I don't have to be scared and I will sleep well tonight because I bought gold instead of listening to that idiot.
The crash is getting close.
Check out stickied chart.

LOL GS, the comment about plagarism at the bottom was hilarious.
Please bring back the scary clown face.
<--Obama for 2012
<--Obama down in flames
As predicted, here comes the Obama Stimulus Plan
More handouts to welfare queens. More money for people that don't want to work. More governement jobs laying red tape and pushing paper back and forth to other government offices.
All he has to do now is give amnesty to the border jumpers and he's a lock in 2012.
obama or another one of his puppet constituents will be (s)elected unless the country completely collapses or we have another false flag event, aka a dirty bomb, in which case, the election theater won't be necessary anyway.
robo ive always admired your stock picking prowess. you and jim cramer, where would i be without you both? and now what? you abandon us, only to predict macro economic/political issues? how can this be? we all need you robo. please tell me the s&p will still be at 1500 come years end. PLEASE!!!!!!!!! I CANT SLEEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DAMMIT ROBO-SPEAK--- SPEAK!!!!!!!!!!
The definition of the perfect communism is to distribute wealth based need not on merit. This is effectively what's happening with Obama:
1) Give principle deduction to home owners who should never own a home based on their income.
2) Give 0 interest loans to banks, because otherwise they die
3) Build, rebuild, rebuild the same road again and again, otherwise the construction workers will turn into hooligans.
4) Give extensions to people out of work, because they need the money, not the job.
Obama, you just realized the dream of the old soviets. They couldn't do it, you did it, Bravo!
so after repeatedly opining there would be no qe3 the 'tard tells us this morning word for word: "QE3 or massive McJobs bill is coming."
'tard: when you need to know what the dumb money is thinking.
FDR did the same thing. All of the government spending that was intended for stimulus really was spent on broadening his power base. Fortunately, his power base is now deep in the broiling fires of Hell.
