About market, TAPE got a real shocker from Fed when Q & A started, they stated this is just an adjustment NOT a start of interest rate cuts, this was a very poorly planned Q & A by Fed Chief, its job is to articulate same policies before any Q & A. Bottom line is US$ strengthened, Gold is taking a tumble and markets went down in a hurry....an exact opposite of what suppose to happen. The only saving grace is " we did not close @ low of the day " BUT confidence in Fed is eroded.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.
