About market, TAPE tried to move UP thanks to ECB decision, Data in US has been weak lately. It is all about jobs report, we may get a less than expected number of 235K, IF it is slightly less like up to 200K it will be taken as winter weakness, BUT if we come way lower than $200K then it may be taken that US$ is hurting US economy. TAPE may react negatively to way below 200K job growth.

  4. Hey Saleem,

    Good luck with LULU!

    Wow, what a shakeout today! I guess a 0.25% hike will kill our economy?

  5. Hi Stocktrader,

    I think hedge funds are taking full advantage of strong job growth..they make money the old fashioned way...they manipulate it.....

  6. Hey Saleem,

    The interesting part is I was fearful of a *weaker* jobs number due to some slightly sluggish recent economic data, the fallout from lower oil, the west coast port shutdown, the bad weather, etc. We ended up having a nicely *strong* number, and the market is devastatingly disappointed--crazy how that works...

  7. Hi Stocktrader,

    This job number will be revised down next month based on everything everyone was pointing out.....there is no credibility of bean counter....
