Hedge your position shorts or longs if you have to have one in time like today. Hope is not a strategy.

Unless we dump big before the close, I'm expecting a gap up tomorrow. Last night, Japan & India sold off. Because the Hang Seng was closed, I didn't think we'd finish strong, so I sold some longs prematurely.

RSX (Russia) is relatively very oversold, so I think I'll buy some before the close.

no idea. I don't read news (at least pretend to ignore them).

Cut rate is to encourage to borrow more. but the problem is debt. in order to solve debt problem, you have to borrow more. I don't understand the logic behind it, by the way. I'm not saying they should not cut rate. I just say our nowadays life is what we borrowed from the future, got to be a pay time one day. Just hopefully not our current generation.
I don't think they will. Their most recent inflation data was around 3% and that's just way too high for their appetite. They like keep their inflation around 2% so I'd be surprised if they reduce rates now. Either way I don't think it will impact the market either way.

note from my buddy on the GS bond desk:

"The belly of the curve sold off 20 bps…..HUGE move….haven’t seenthat kind of a selloff since 08…..part of this is a glut of new supply coming to the market, but it’s also…..
Risk ON."

think we have another end of day run up...doesn't take much to get people to buy this market.

99er: remember Volpinacci? he asked me to tell you that he has a "break-line" - what we humans usually call "line in the sand": SPY = 114, which this so-called rally was unable to break..
