Jubilation all over the world, again ::).   Asia up, futures up, IGM up, economy down, oh joy. 

France's economy contracts 0.4% out just now, translation: France in recession, but hey, happy days.

Edit: Germany YoY GDP prev 0.1%, actual -1.4%, oops.

From marketwatch.com:
But Tuesday’s broad gains elsewhere came after S&P rose marginally to set a fresh closing record Monday, while the Dow industrials retreated, with investors considering the Federal Reserve’s reported exit strategy from its quantitative-easing program.

“Although recent central-bank policy has distorted market prices in equities and bonds, it seems unlikely that the U.S. Fed will reduce its asset-purchase program until the second half of the year,” said Perpetual head of investment market research Matthew Sherwood.

Almost back to mid March highs after only six consecutive up days, I don't think we left the bull market in the first place.  Which is a pity considering what's fuelling markets in the first place.  For sure not growth and economic strength but the opposite thereof.  Worst of all, preventative measures (i.e. QE, bond buying, rate cuts) which are a 'last resort' by definition, are designated to international markets not to SA, so why oh why are we reaching all time highs?

Mmmm, thought our market up at 1.77% was a tad too over-optimistic considering Nikkei's 0.75%, Shanghai's 0.47%, Hang Seng's 0.85% and now FTSE 0.27%, DAX 0.58% and CAC's 0.71% - get back in line dammit. ;D

Sometimes it is good to be reminded of the nature of the beast we're battling daily :D, also good to be reminded it happens, get over it and move on - thank you jaDEB & Nivek.  ;)

I can give you a lot of reasons why Nikkei or any other market for that matter, shouldn't be up 3%+ but sanity doesn't prevail atm. (Might be Auz's rate cut earlier today come to think of it.) Furthermore German factory orders at 12:00 and that's about it for today. 

For now, I will abide my time and wait patiently to short again, :) luckily I'm in another province this week so time should fly by.

Edit:  German factory orders Prev 2.2%, Exp -0.5%, Actual 2.2%

Had my @$$ handed to me on a silver platter last few sessions, not so much fun. :'(

SA unemployment rate @ 25.20% as expected, previously 24.90%.  Draghi speaks at 15:00, no idea why though.

What can I say?  Friday PM market was really mean for shorts and I was in no mood to type full sentences or even words for that matter.  Guess I felt a bit antoganistic but back to my old charming self now. ;D
