ive just read 30 odd pages of what looks to me like all the ats member doing what they do best....predicting the worst...for nothing......u lot make me smile...thanks for the laugh

End of the European Union... please please please!

IMO they'll call for even a bigger thing... a world government... this is all planned.

IMO DIJA is gonna go down again today.

We could make an ATS pool where we chose the next country to go bankrupt...or the next big US bank.

At least we could make fun out of this whole disaster.

I think they actually halted trading in Russia after their market fell 9%.

Didn't seem to make the wider news, I've noticed the main stream media, here in Australia at least, keeps telling people everything is rosey, we're well placed, yadda yadda, the government spending money we don't have will save us all.

Then again, I've heard the usual ATS doom predictions all the time too.

However... The situation certainly hasn't gotten any better!



*snip* the global dow looks interesting:

More great News from not so Great Britain isn't helping our cause on this side of the pond:

Whilst in the EU:

Looking very shakey. I believe that this is a bit like an iceberg - People thought they could see the whole problem when this started but they were only seeing the 1/8th above the surface - we're only just starting to see the other 7/8ths of what's lurking beneath.

The funniest thing here in the UK was when the idiot economists working with the government came out with their solution:

"We're going to borrow our way out of debt." !!!! - I kid you not, this was the official answer to how to solve the problem of too much debt - borrow more.

I can only assume that these people lock themselves away from the World for a couple of weeks, and in a state of stir crazy induced psychosis they acually start to believe in the fantasies that they dream up for the proles.

it looks as though I might have to change some o' my predictions, atleast for the short term..

today.. open in mediocre red.. up and down 100-150 for the day.. sudden drop at closing to end the day at -250-300

grrr..

Yeah, just watch, people are so retarded they will make a 200 points rally. It wouldn't be the first time.

Russia down 7...

After the news about RBS... I'm actually impressed the UK is holding firm at -1%.. wow...

anyway looks like the start of a fun day!

for those who need a site for all commods and internationals... www.indexq.org... is awesome... just sucks u have to manually refresh

yes, good site for global watch.. kitco.com? is nice for watching the dollar, up to date

reply to post by brohes


ooh that is a good site... LOL bookmarked!

second lines are overrated

Funnily the site I use for looking at gold prices won't load - I guess it's crashed under the volume of visitors trying to get the latest prices!

Never mind, I can always visit my own site: www.scrapgold.org.uk... for the prices in GBP, although I'm not sure if that has updated recently - I just took a feed from one of the other sites so maybe it's frozen?

also, marketwatch.com does an auto update /me likes that. lazy lazy days

OOOh potential rally... stuff is starting to climb... ever so slowly...

still isn't looking GOOD yet... but I'm not at the edge of my seat anymore lol
