OOPS... DB just made a new low... 16.83...

 

So which is the news that's driving this market...

All this Washington Skullduggery?

Or DB and these banks?

I submit it is the latter. ( I see DB fair value around $11, just at present)

and until GS gives us something more bullish, we are not going very far.

These banks.

It's DB, no doubt about it, the counterparty risk is unfathomable... Bottom line, is that sick thought, that they had to bend over for a 35% ramrod just to float this monster of a bank... it's not going to go away any time soon...

 

It's like a synapse... that thought just continues to circle back in front of the mind...

GS over the falls... and what else is following it?

 

The rest of the market, that's what.

Well, well... another FLAMEOUT... what a surprise!...NOTT

 

Today's SPX:

 

SPX RALLY AND SHORT-SQUEEZE FAILS MISERABLY - There was a huge rally early in the session as the pumps were set at full blast and the robots reigned, but that rally ran into a brick wall at 2358, turned south and closed the day at 2345.13 or DOWN about 2 1/2 points on the day... so the damage to the closing price was slight, but the damage to the momentum looks devastating.  We're looking for more rally attempt again tomorrow and a possible very early flameout

OK so Fresh new lows for the week, and the run on DB and GS...

 

We're looking for a washout today...

 

Take it down hard and shake it out...

Fundamentally?  One of the World's largest banks floats paper with a 35% haircut to the market?

 

Who are we kidding?

I understand they don't have the votes to pass this, according to news reports.



Yes, the market under estimated Trumps policies...meaning getting them passed.

They probably could have gotten a better deal at a pawn shop, but maybe they wouldn't even pass their credit check ... yes.gif
