Gold always a good bet on a dysfunctional government

If you hate the government, you might as well profit from it. Gold is off to a good start this week, gaining $15 to $1325. That’s the highest since last Tuesday.
Gold is above the 100-hour and 200-hour moving averages and technically the short-term picture is upbeat. The real story is fundamentals. It’s sadly (and eerily) quiet in Washington. There is no easy path out from here and that means a good probability this stretches to Friday, at least. If we get that close to the debt ceiling, there …

The US $, and the US economy after the shut down

annatimone Publier 1 oct dans #Miss Dukascopy 2013 #USD #Dollar #Forex #Fx #Congress #Us Economy #Government

The fact that the US government has been forced in to this closure by a small group of Republicans is extraordinary when looked at from outside. I am in no position to say who is right and who is wrong in this debate, but one would have hoped that somehow, the national interest would have overcome political posturing before committing to this action. Perhaps the President was too forceful in his speech before the vote, in seemingly leaving no room for debate – and perhaps that hardened the attit…

US Headed for a Government Shutdown

annatimone Publier 29 sep dans #Miss Dukascopy 2013 #JPY #USD #Yen #USD/JPY #Us #Obama #Government #Obamacare

Early on Sunday the US House voted, once again, to tie a vote on government funding to a one-year delay of Obamacare. The Senate has twice rejected the amendment and will rejected it again. If not, Obama will veto it.
The seeming lack of progress means a shutdown at midnight on Monday is increasingly likely. It will be the first government shutdown since 1996.

Growth....a revised, revised approach?

annatimone Mis à jour 28 juillet dans #Miss Dukascopy 2013 #Inflation #Gdp #Growth #Unemployment #Data #Jobs #Government #Us Employment

The Office for National Statistics in the UK announced that second quarter growth showed an increase of 0.6% - the best growth figures since mid-2010. BUT, what does this growth figure actually mean to the wider population? The answer is very little. With other closely scrutinized numbers such as unemployment stats, and inflation figures, at least there is a relevance to peoples’ daily lives, but what about GDP??
