Yesterday: "
If they have not already done so in anticipation, we smell a possible Yen carry trade unwind coming from the 50 bps cut & Fukui's jawboning...

It could hit late Fri or Mon or when the NDX hits 2082 area
."

Its here and sooner than we thought, $ porked, commodities going "hog" wild Nickle +10%; Zinc +5%; Copper +4%.

Bonds got CLUBBED down with the US 10 year bond retracing from Sept 10 low 4.32% to 4.70%.

The Fed's desperation twin 50 bps cuts may backfire in a big way. More commentary on the morrow.

Often wrong, but never in doubt, this is the Nattering Naybob and you're not!
