I am looking for Dow to drop by 3xx to 4xx tonight.. then it will be in-line with all other bourses and most likely technical rebound either wed or thurs.

Debasing of Swiss currency = Swiss market rally.

Europe currency drop is good. US currency drop is also good.

But normally Euro dollar drop means USD rise so no good for Dow and S& P500.

Anyway I still have some vested interest in Gold and Silver ETF.

Japan Yen will follow the path of Euro and USD soon.

LOL

Swiss Franc Collapses 7% - Swiss National Bank to Fix CHF to EUR and Debase Currency

Currency markets have seen massive volatility this morning after the Swiss National Bank decision to fix the Swiss franc to the euro.

Gold is trading at USD 1,899.50, EUR 1,339.10, GBP 1,177.30, CHF 1,611.10 (up from CHF 1,486.50 yesterday) and JPY 146,350 per ounce. Gold is down 0.18% in dollar terms and strong physical demand continues at these levels.

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/swiss-franc-collapses-7-swiss-national-bank-fix-chf-eur-and-debase-currency

" With Immediate Effect"

From Simon Black of Sovereign Man

" With Immediate Effect"

Holy Red Screen, Batman! If you haven’t seen the news, the Swiss National Bank has just announced that it is putting a ceiling on the franc’s appreciation against the euro… effectively abandoning its economic sovereignty and putting its future in the hands of woefully corrupt and incompetent bureaucrats.

On the news, the franc fell off a cliff, dropping almost 10% INSTANTLY. Gold priced in Swiss francs jumped from 1497 to 1620 per troy ounce, all in about 45 seconds.

Precious metals are now all alone as the only forms of sound money that are truly safe havens.

Just 6-weeks ago on July 27th, in a letter entitled “Should I buy gold at its all-time high”, I wrote:

“Even stronger currencies like the Swiss franc have limits to their appreciation. At some point, the Swiss National Bank will impose capital controls to thwart the rise of its currency. . . [Y]ou’ll probably feel like a sucker for not buying gold at $1600 when you still had the chance.”

Since then gold has soared roughly 20%, and as of this morning, the SNB has imposed capital controls to thwart the rise of its currency.

This is just the beginning.

The Swiss government has basically told the world that they will print as much money as it takes, and buy up as much crap sovereign debt as they can, to competitively devalue the currency.

This essentially puts Switzerland in the same sinking boat as Italy, Greece, and Portugal… with one key difference: Switzerland has 0% interest rates.

In other words, you can now borrow in francs at 0% and buy government-backed euro garbage yielding 5%, 10%, 30%…. with absolutely no downside currency risk.

Here’s a practical example you can do– open a FOREX trading account and borrow Swiss francs at 0.5%. Buy the EURCHF cross and simply hold euro cash, paying 0.65%. At 100:1 leverage (quite common in FOREX trading), that translates into a 15% return simply for HOLDING CASH with no downside currency risk.

It’s free money, courtesy of the Swiss National Bank. I’m just waiting for the next wave of margin hikes. Needless to say, this is utter madness and will absolutely hasten the end game for Europe.

A few other points to make:

1) Big Swiss exporters like Novartis and Nestle are dancing a jig right now as this will surely boost their sales in the short-term. Also, banks in Switzerland and Austria who had heavy exposure to Eastern Europe are breathing a sigh of relief right now.

You see, Swiss interest rates have traditionally been lower than in Europe’s emerging economies. For example, many Hungarians took out mortgage loans in Swiss francs because the borrowing rate was so much cheaper.

Once the Swiss franc began to rise, however, borrowers had a difficult time paying back the loan suddenly their mortgage payment and balance were much higher than before, and default rates soared.

Banks in Austria, Germany, and Switzerland who wrote most of the loans were sitting on huge potential losses… and this destruction to the financial system has been mitigated thanks to today’s move. I have to imagine this had some influence in the decision.

2) For all the talk of a pullback in gold, this is only further reason for a rise in precious metals. It’s true that nothing goes up (or down) in a straight line, but given that the world just lost nearly its last remaining safe haven currency, there are few other asset classes to turn to.

3) Markets are not functioning properly. Competitive devaluation means that governments are all striving to out-print each other… Europe is printing as much as they can to bail out the PIIGS, Switzerland just signed up to join then, Japan and China are not far behind, and QE3 is set to launch soon in America.

With so much money sloshing around the financial system, there is absolutely no sense of value anymore people cannot invest with confidence given all the massive bureaucratic intervention.

4) In the Swiss National Bank’s brief statement, they said “With immediate effect, [the SNB] will no longer tolerate a EUR/CHF exchange rate below the minimum rate of CHF 1.20. The SNB will enforce this minimum rate with the utmost determination and is prepared to buy foreign currency in unlimited quantities.”

The three key words here are ‘WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT’. This is just another example of a government making instant changes that pose dramatic risk over people’s lives and livelihoods.

Make no mistake, we can all wake up tomorrow to a new reality.

20/80 rule:

20% of the people(active traders, buying and selling frequently) control the market prices which affect 80% of the people( who only buy and hold, seldom or never sell)....after buying, they stay sideline...

most people cannot master the art of selling......( not in sales or product presentation) ie, selling shares in stock market....

I love to follow target price reports.. Especially when they recommend you to sell the counter… BUYBUYBUY. LOL !!!

Sgshares ( Date: 06-Sep-2011 22:10) Posted:

I've got many friends got 'killed' when they followed those target price reports,etc. I meant really many. Until now, some are still holding China hongxing (suspended), kepcorp @ $10.20, etc. Gone hard earned $. So sad.

iPunter ( Date: 06-Sep-2011 22:08) Posted:

Since one year ago, people have been authoratively asking others to " buy on dips" .

Now where are those people now? Will they be around to offer their sympathy

to those who followed their 'tips', and who are now already " pokai" (wiped out)?... Smiley

If you are assuming a bull market (uptrend), it makes sense to buy stocks.

But those who assume a bear market (continued downtrend)

will be selling on the rallies. If it is a bear market, it does not

make sense to swim against the current, since the rewards

will not be a great as following the trend. It has been about

one year of bear market. Who is to say that buying is the

right thing to do? A lot of money can be lost if the bear

market (storm) continues for a few more months... Smiley

Well said Master Warren.

But one thing most people cannot master. And that is to stay on the sideline...

Humans got this mentality that...

Bull can long..

Bear can short..

Either way also can earn money, Thats why they forever hand itchy want to buy something in the stock market and get burned in the ass in the end :)

warrenbegger ( Date: 06-Sep-2011 22:01) Posted:

Not matter Long or Short. Bear, Bull, Cow or Pig.

If U cant see the odds, if U cant see the danger, if U cant feel the market heartbeat.

Then the best strategy should be take a rest and out of market first. Greed is good, but greed also kill.

U dont had to play every games, just a few high chance profitable trade is all U need, but too bad not many understand it.

Why some earn so easily? Why some earn so hard? And why some keep losing and losing till now also dont know why? Anyone miss something?

*This month maybe will be a very siao market, anyhow up anyhow down. Long or Short may not had any advantage as i feel. I still sideline feeling nothing, no feel :)

*This is the best advise i can give now. If U cant see the road in front, stop and take a rest first, dont run into shit hole and regret again and again. Pls Save yourself :)

warrenbegger ( Date: 22-Aug-2011 22:51) Posted:

Many goes for the Flop

And even more after the Turn

But in the end, some will drown in the River

Or see at the Flop

River is yours
