EUR/USD - finally some sense
8h chart of EUR/USD - we have almost clear uptrend.
Lets hope we will see one more pullback, so we can enter long.
On the lower side, we see higher lows.
Support is around 1.44.50 (must be around 1.45.00 already)
On the upper side, we see higher highs, but clearly 1.49.50 is important resistance.

Very good deflation article
Inflating Away Debt by Mish
http://globaleconomicanalysis.blogspot.com/2008/02/inflating-away-debt.html
Very interesting article. This does not mean I agree with it, but surely is conviencing.
Suppose you want to spend more money this month than your income. This situation is called a "budget deficit". So you borrow. The amount you borrowed (and now owe) is called your debt. You have to pay interest on your debt. If next month you don't have enough money to cover your spending (another deficit), you must borrow some more, and you'll still have to pay the interest on the loan. If you have a deficit every month, you keep borrowing and your debt grows. Soon the interest payment on your loan is bigger than any other item in your budget. Eventually, all you can do is pay the interest payment, and you don't have any money left over for anything else. This situation is known as bankruptcy.
Why The Fed Cannot Inflate Consumer Debt Away?

Why The Fed Cannot Inflate Consumer Debt Away?
- The Fed cannot put dollars in everyone's pocket.
- The Fed cannot create jobs.
- The Fed cannot force consumers with no money to buy houses to drive prices back up.
- The Fed cannot change consumer attitudes towards debt and spending.
- The Fed cannot force businesses to go on hiring sprees.
- The Fed cannot force wages to rise.
- The Fed cannot do anything about global wage arbitrage.

EUR/USD view for week FEB/18/2007
I. Notes:
Because the market is real mess now, this time I will do some long term view, and will give no special recommendations :)
I also will include USD/JPY, because at this point this couple is more clear for trading.
II. USD index:
Weekly:This picture is unchanged for monts. Upper blue line is long term resistance. Brown line is old wedge support. The second blue line is probably the support of the USD downtrend. I say "probably" because is not clear where exactly this line must be placed, also there is no confirmation for exact same line in EUR/USD. The pink line is short term support.
Daily:The pink line from weekly chart is the support here, shown in blue. The figure looks like a triangle, so the price may fall much next weeks. However this is unclear.
III. EUR/USD weekly:
Same wedge/parallel channel here. The resistance is not shown, but is there :-)
Note the pink line. EUR raised 3 times, but was unable to break it.
IV. USD/JPY 2 days chart:
On USD/JPY front, we see that the USD decline since several weeks. Channel is almost perfect. At the moment USD raising to the upper boundary of the channel. However it may be a wedge too. In order to go long, we will need to see break on pink line, which will indicate there is NO wedge.
V. Summary:
This is almost the same as I wrote 3 weeks ago:
I believe FED will cut more, US stockmarket, Gold, Oil, EUR will raise. However in short term we will could see a dollar rally.
I still think EUR is just a paper, but as I said before, FED is in panic mode now and will sacrifice the dollar, in order to save stockmarket and to avoid recession and deflation. Of course I do not believe we will see deflation except in housing sector, I also believe the US will fall into a recession anyway. But I still believe US stockmarket will raise in USD terms because of inflation and money printing.
Happy week and happy trade!

Kitco - Gold mania barometer.
Unfortunately, "the barometer" failed to make new high. We will see if the down line will act as support, but clearly the upper line is like resistance.
Actualy this is not bad, because if we are correct - price stays ~900 and mania is not even began, that is good.

Gold reserves to hit sale block
The International Monetary Fund says it plans to sell gold from its reserves, and the announcement at the Group of Seven (G7) meeting in Tokyo confirmed those moves could come as early as April. The maneuver widely is understood to be aimed at an IMF goal of depressing the price of gold worldwide. The IMF goal appears to be to shove the price of gold back down into the $500 per ounce range, Bolser told WND in an exclusive telephone interview. Bolser said a secondary goal is for the IMF to gain control of as much of the world's gold reserves as possible. "This grab of IMF sovereign gold held in central banks around the world matches what the Federal Reserve did in 1934 when the Treasury grabbed U.S. citizen's wealth after a long and debilitating depression created by the Fed through excessive lending," Bolser said. "I don't expect an instantaneous market reaction to the IMF’s announcement this weekend," Bolser cautioned. "The IMF will make it appear as if the news didn't have any effect." "But don't make any mistake about it," he continued. "The price of gold is now under assault from the IMF gold sale announcement and this weekend's disclosure was just the first wave." "The IMF wants push the price of gold to $500 or below," he said, "and right now is not the time to be long holding gold." In his subscription newsletter for Monday, Bolser reported that Goldman Sachs is stating internally that gold will stay where it is for the next 90 days, then fall dramatically in price, an analysis which support's Bolser’s analysis of the IMF announcement to sell gold.

World economy slow down. Soon the earth will stop spins :-)
WTI Cushing Spot 88.65 -1.37 -1.52 12:11
Gold is $888
US stocks down 2.2% - see Dow YTD chart:
Looks like only the USD is up...
So Bernanke, are you ready to cut again?
Meanwhile:
I bought some more GLD @ 87.75(will buy more @ 85) - I don't buy theory gold will be down to $670. Maximum downsize I see is $780-800.
I have order for PBR @ 100 (and will buy more @ ~95 or ~90).
Hopefully $100 order will be filled tomorrow.

Microsoft Panics, Overpays For Yahoo
Microsoft Panics, Overpays For Yahoo by Mish
Well, this is some article I strongly disagree.
Yes, Google is better search engine, but Yahoo has lots of value - their e-mail is most popular free e-mail, and Yahoo Finance is best "Finance" site. Lots of people go to Yahoo page every day, not to search, but they just "visiting".
It is obvious Microsoft can not buy Google, so why not get Yahoo ;) . Price is high now, but see Yahoo price 2 weeks ago.
I do not like MSFT, nor Yahoo, nor Google.
However if I was Microsoft I would do the same.
According to Alexa, this is how "top internet sites" are ranked:
1. Yahoo.com
2. Google.com (includes GMail.com domain)
3. YouTube.com (own by Google)
4. Live.com (Microsoft)
5. MSN (Microsoft)
Of cource this is calculated by Alexa toolbar, but anyway real situation is similar.
Final words
I would not invest in any technology shares right now, but Microsoft must, because what they do is accuiring a company, in order to get better "Internet market" share etc.
