based on chatters coming out of intelligence observers, CIA/MI6 assets (involved in HK riots) have been pulled out of HK. Expect the riots to settle in coming week.

 

some kind of new normal in global markets in the next 3 months. but still looking for new lows in Asia and global markets.

another lazy lunch with good sunny weather and more day dreaming/ reflection.

 

'color revolutions' used to be something in far away foreign countries that do not concern me. when the riots first hit hk so close to home, i didnt pay any attention. I thought it would just another run of the mill correction. but hk is my primary market and the message is now clear.

 

the line up of pro liberal western media, funding from NED and supply of bomb making material got me thinking. markets used to be markets; trading is usually just trading.

 

there should a series of rate cuts by FED and PBOC in the next few months. But i suspect markets can't be elevated very far.

 

i am not a political person, usually agnostic. but something is cooking. there's a bigger play coming. who and what are they trying to achieve. Awaiting more data to make a call.

IMHO there is going on war between 2 big powers, to put it simple, Rothshilds and Rockefellers (real situation is a bit more complicated), with China now playing for the former with their gold accumulation, tight connections with UK. What we were seeing on the markets is just a mirror of ongoing war. Yesterday the selling started immediately with the opening of European markets, so probably it was chinese backed selling, as response to intelligence backed turmoils in HK. Tonight DT blinked and begs for another meeting, so there should be considerable relief rally. We have to see how high it goes. In fact if we overcome 2900, we could see new ATH within a very short time.

this is really beyond me. as i am merely a punter. im watching that 2900 resistance. I doubt it can be broken. but it's good that u drop by and hit me on the head once in a while. which is the reason why i post here. waiting for someone to give me a kick once in a while.

 

right now, im punting for that relief rally on fri. hang seng up on monday.

 

maybe the group u pointed out is positioning for a gold back RMB to secure their influence in a new world order.

i think my rationale for a bottom now is the 'dumb and dumber' trade. when the markets no long react to anymore stupid announcement, i know I have seen a bottom.
