A recent US study indicated that 1 in 4 people are @$$holes. If your 3 closest friends are okay, then.......

Moenie worrie nie. They always come to an agreement at 99.99 time out. We will just have to suffer the down days until then. No ways will either party allow another recession as it will hurt there own pockets and families.

Agree with Orca, they will wait until the last moment, calling each others's bluff.

13:00 GB Interest rate
14:30 US Initial jobless claims
18:20 Draghi speaks

Wow, ugly spike down just now op IGM T40 8:25 Open 38353, 8:30 38162, a quick -191 points - oh, the joys of taking out stop losses, it's like a fishing trip, very relaxing, just cruising along picking up stop losses and then it turns right back up,  they should be ashamed. :mad:

Armed rebels have kidnapped Libyan Prime Minister Ali Zeidan  in the early hours of dawn from his Tripoli hotel and Asian markets mostly down, US futures up, IGMT40 @ 38211,  ::) told you.

New lows for Harmony and Goldfields.

Same here, but secretly I'm hoping the fear sticks around for another two weeks as I have some backpay kicking in and I'd like to get better value for money on my next bunch of purchases  8)

U.S. House of Representatives Republicans are weighing a short-term debt limit increase with no added policy changes, such as deficit-reduction requirements, according to a source with knowledge of the discussions

Especially considering market ended up +507 points yesterday, but at least we anticipate their sneakiness and use it to our advantage. (But unfortunately had to get burned one of twice before I realised how they are playing it, I was dumbstruck, being pure of heart myself I just could not believe tactics used.) :D

It seem communication is the name of the game again with House Republican leaders and Obama having a 90-minute meeting at the White House last night.  No deal was made but at least they agreed to continue talking.  This made markets happy with DOW ending + 2.18%, NAS +2.26% and S&P + 2.18%.  Asia also up with 5 of their major market doing > 1% atm.

VIX -15.92%, Moons F&G 34 Fear, IGM T40 +174

No major eco reporting today.

Last day to trade vir divvies: AVI, CPI, JDG, WBO
