I am truly sorry for all the spam.  Where is a internet live feed to watch the press conference? My Bloomberg TV doesn't want to load.

I dont think there will be taper announced tonight.
Not even a mention of when, only that the FED is data dependent.
Bernanke knows what the consequences of taper will be, and I think he does not want that to happen at Christmas time.
He'll most prob leave that bridge for Yellen to cross.

 

But leaving the market to guess might also not be a good idea.  I think he needs to be specific with time lines.

I'm kinda leaning in the direction of "any news might be bad for us".

 

1. IF they do taper, small or going big, I think we in the EM might see a small selloff.

 

2. IF they don't taper and give March 2014, I don't see what we have to go and shoot the lights out, since March is just around the corner.

 

3. IF they kick the can down the road and don't say anything definite w.r.t timelines, then we might actually ALSO sell off.

 

:unsure:

Hi M!

 

Yeah, I'm also having those issues today. No changes saved. It is quite annoying.

AJS, are you having any problems when saving any changes that you make on your files? 

 

As of yesterday when i change my pivotpoints i save the file when asked "Overwrite System Pivotpoints" but if i close it and open it again, it's the same as before the changes was made.

 

It's the same on my backup pc, so, if you are also having the same thing then me thinks the problem lies with Inv.com.

Let's say there is taper talk for Jan 14, but S&P goes up, IGM will follow. But tomorrow our real market might not like that, thus up over night and down tomorrow.
Yeah, it is a though one... I don't have answers to be honest :)
