Stool Pigeons Wire Message Board > Stock Market Message Board > Intraday Stool- Stock Market Short Term Trading

Miners are down: BHP -0.5%, RIO -0.6% and the golds are failing to impress, flat to down.
In the oils, Woodside +0.9% and Santos +0.5%.
China's Foreign-Takeover Rules May Hurt Growth
Dec. 18 (Bloomberg) -- Schaeffler KG, the German maker of precision machinery and auto parts, is finding China isn't as welcoming as it once was.
Schaeffler has been frustrated in its effort to invest $128 million in China to build factories and acquire Luoyang Bearing Science & Technology Co., China's largest maker of ball bearings.
China, which has lured $622.4 billion from overseas since 1978 and surpassed the U.S. in 2003 as the largest recipient of foreign investment, is turning off the tap that helped feed two decades of growth. With new restrictions on investment, China risks impeding its own modernization efforts and invites a backlash from its trading partners, China specialists say.
China is holding up approval of 27 percent of the $15 billion announced this year in leveraged-buyout deals, a field dominated by foreign investors. Last year, all but 6 percent were approved.

Australia's 2007 Commodity Sales Forecast Unchanged
Dec. 18 (Bloomberg) -- Australia, the world's biggest shipper of coal, iron ore and wool, left its forecast for commodity earnings for this fiscal year unchanged at a record as higher metal prices offset falling farm exports.
Prices of iron ore, oil, copper and zinc produced by mining companies reached all-time highs this year, helped by demand from China and disruptions to mines and oil fields. Commodities account for almost 60 percent of Australia's export earnings, driven by companies including BHP Billiton Ltd. and Rio Tinto Group, the world's two largest miners by market value.

Another consolidation-type day. All Ords finished right where we were at the morning post, +0.3%. Healthcare took over the lead, +1.4% and Energy dropped into second place, +1%. Materials remained the only red sector, -0.8%.
Not a happy day for BHP and RIO, both down over a percent but a couple of the golds cranked up a touch, Newcrest +0.3% and Newmont +0.6%. Lihir sailed into the red, -1%.
Oils faded as the day wore on with both Woodside and Santos closing flat.
Over in Asia, China is upwardly mobile, +2%, Taiwan +1% and India -1%.

K-wave. What just happened? Good grief!
Bonus time champions are going for world records before christmas I guess. They probably even game it after christmas in low volume days.
I better get in a few hours sleep.
Seems we might have gap and crap part 2 today that you want to position yourself long again after any dip. Pretty much place your bets the day before on whatever direction because the pre-market will have the biggest moves as usual.
Just seems they have multiplied x's 3 or something.

Re-Militarization in Japan
Nihon Pride
History has a tendency to repeat itself--it's no different than stock market cycles. It could be very interesting to find out who the biggest military contractors are in Japan! My guess is it's the same ones from prewar Japan. Military spending in Asia should boom
Nihon Pride
QUOTE
The Diet revised the country's main education law Friday to require schools to encourage patriotism in the classroom for the first time since World War II.
......
The education reform is part of a broad effort by Abe, who took office in September, to bolster Japan's international standing and take a higher military profile.
His government is also pushing for revisions of the pacifist Constitution, and Parliament on Friday enacted a measure upgrading the Defense Agency to a full-fledged ministry.

Education reform supporters say Japan's long stretch of economic prosperity has boosted living standards but eroded the morals and cooperative spirit of prewar Japanese.
The education measure makes several crucial changes to the 1947 Fundamental Law on Education, which was approved during the postwar occupation by U.S. authorities.

I have a book titled The Japanese Economy from a Japanese Economics Course that I took a long time ago. Date of the book is 1981 so I guess I could use an update.
I would look at the zaibatsu. My book lists Mitsubishi, Mitsui, Sumitomo and Yasuda.
Of course they could have dismantled their operations by now. In which case
companies like General Dynamics, Northrup Grumman, Raytheon, Boeing, etc.
might be more interesting. I think that it will still take a long time for any militarization.
BTW, the reason I took the course was to learn about the Japanese Fifth Generation
project in which they wanted to take over the world by becoming the leading country in artificial intelligence. Well, things didn't exactly work out that way but it was an interesting course nevertheless.

They might as well learn something from the Fed and crooks like GS.
5:53 am central. QQQQ already trading.
Check this out.
I still have my QQQQ intraday from friday up.
Here is the info.
Gap up t0 44.83 premarket. Top came right off the open.
We went all the way down to 44.37 (area). That was the pivot low.
Something happened on that pivot low which I am still trying to figure out with stocks in general. Pretty much on that exact print low there was a bad tick to 44.60
2 hours later some gap filled up to 44.62 area right after the close
The QQQQ's then settled back tdown to 44.40 afterhours and flatlined.
Fast forward to monday. Something got jammed in the futures last night and the whole world spiked up. My screen shows an automatic hammer to 44.60 on the QQQQ. Somehow the first trade for 2600 shares or so went off before 6am. About 5.45 it looks like.
Just wanted to get friday fresh in everyones mind. This week is the last before Christmas. The biggest volume and moves will probably happen early in the week before traders leave for the holidays.
I guess some will even take home their laptops to pull off some moves in front of their little nephew Johnnie. "Check it out Johnnie."" Booyah!"" Did you see me move the QQQQ with 40 million dollars? ""Thats your first intro into pigmen trading".
Wanna be like Uncle Johnnie?
The volume shown on my screen didn't even match the raw data.
Here is the raw data.
12/15/06 20:00:00 44.60 44.57 44.61 39560
12/15/06 20:00:00 44.60 44.57 44.60 200
As you can see pigmen trading firms have now overtaken time and space. The ultimate slap in the face. Just check out the time.
I'm sure there is a perfectly logical explanation for it. Same as everything else in the pigmen trading books. They have even exploited loop holes in trading regulations.
They have transgressed thru time and space. 
Prop desks who both own QQQQ can sell it back and forth to each other and skip the computer models all together? That is what some of this looks like to me. Somhow they are able to trick shares and goose some other things causing bad ticks or something

I think CHINA is going to 12 but the pigmen are going to shake it all over the place. Don't make the mistake of watching the HSI to gauge what you think CHINA etc. will do the next day. That pretty much goes for anything. Things are offset some all the time.
CHINA is going to be extremely volatile imo. Same with others like JOF. The pigmen will always do whatever it takes to shake the most people out of these things. I am pretty much set on China going up. Going down is not in the picture in my mind for trading this. Right now I am just ignoring them.

They basically retraced hard but after massive gains from 03. I forgot the tech momos. The usual favorites. I veared away from them though and into energy. I basically targeted oil at 50. I was sold by a former poster on a longer term basis on the commodities sector in general. Many of my chosen small caps like PQ and PLLL were ideas from metamucil. A poster here who use to post alot more when he was loading the boat on them.

I had a quick read of the Delphi stuff and it isn't clear to me if this is good or bad
for GM. I note that GM is down premarket from Friday though. Autos really aren't
my area. It would be nice if we had specialists in various market segments for
commentary.
From Rev Shark this AM
"This isn't a market driven by astute stock pickers looking for bargains and overlooked stories; it is a market driven by a sea of cash
that is looking for a place to go and doesn't much care as long as it is in the equity market."
That about sums it up.

Looks like another Cramer tout gets kicked in the balls....he was screaming up this one late last week.....douche bag
I have this feeling that gold is going below $600 soon. I don't think it will stay there very long but it's going to be painful for those of us with gold stocks.
But jick is posting again so at least we will have some amusement to go with
the pain.

That's bullish for the stock market, right?
My oil companies are getting trampled this morning. I think that the Nigerian rebels
have threatened to blow things up and kidnap so many workers that they're just
news noise these days. They probably need to actually do something to get more
attention next time.
BTW, C is still smoking. Maybe GS handed them the baton for this week.
AEM showing a wee bit of strength this morning.
And as noted, GOOG having a few problems.
RUT futs red...drawin' a bead on LOD
