Full Moon Rising~Markets Falling?

Long Bonds to 172, Dollar to 115, Gold to 1050, SPX to 1010?
Aloha All
Our friendly skies are unsettled, with Space Weather forecasts for more active geo-magnetics.
Seems not only is the Full Moon Rising, the Sun sprang a coronal leak, hitting earth with high-particle energy.

As Lemmings Leap the Current State of All Markets
Honey bee colonies are collapsing like markets, and experts, like Federal Reserve and Treasury Government authorities, say they do not know why.

Three-Card Monte is a street confidence game with a shill developed to effectively separate people from their money.

It seems corporate government monopoly media developed the game to a mass market level, using attractive anchors, colourful graphics and the colour of authority expert shills to persuade viewers Tax [...]

Update Dismal

We are using strength to sell down and raise cash
Aloha All:
This low volatility abandoned market can be like watching corn grow or paint dry.
It can be like the Sirens, Charybdis and Scylla that lured the men of Homer’s Odyssey to drowning, destruction and death if they did not ignore the sweet seductive music and sail [...]

Co-rexit~ Selling NLC Below 29.20

While we do not normally sell short, because we cannot make more than 100% on a short, NLC may prove the profitable exception to the rule.
We were appalled by blatant Public Relations Disinformation campaigns since the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) first told BP to stop using Corexit in the air, on the land and on [...]

Sayonara Dow 11,258.10~

Look out Below Gold 1265 and Silver 21.50
News reached US that China admitted it can’t buy enough gold reserves because the market is too small.
Two thirds of China’s $2.45 Trillion in surplus reserves is in dollar-denominated assets, thus the probable explanation that the recent Yuan revaluation appreciated only 0.8% against the dollar.

http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/episode/gulf-oil-spill-5488/Overview
When we go to the store, we respond to sales by buying, sometimes buying more at lower prices if we can.
Yes we can with BP.
When we are in the stock market, human nature is to get more confident with higher prices, and less confident with lower prices, one way to [...]

The China Card~ CZI above 29.68

Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner testified to the Senate Finance Committee on The Hill today, opening with the usual positive accomplishment statements, quickly saddled with Senator complaints about China trade.

The CNBC link was time sensitive, and so far CSPAN has not posted the hearings. They should be required viewing for all citizens who think and vote.
