    Looks like oil prices get dragged along with the market for now until it can go no further.

    Note that dollar declines and Euro rises make Eurodollar funding for QE in Europe and negative rates too costly, since margins are squeezed on the inverted yield curve between US t-bills and Euro denominated treasuries.

    imho having cnbc cheapens this site

      Yeah, I like the daily unstructured format. We don’t need to cover everything ‘on-the-spot’

      Give me another source. Chris uses CNBC because the material has nothing to do with opinion only the actual numbers as a primary source.

        I find it a good site to get information quickly. Bloomberg is too confusing to find information.

          If you are just looking for specific numbers, we find it to be quite easy Paul L. We don’t utilize the other stuff!

      ditto Agatha and FranSix

        Dec 09, 2015 09:22 PM

        Why, in your opinion Frank, does information from CNBC cheapen our site?

          Dec 09, 2015 09:32 PM

          Because the MSM is owned by six people with a certain agenda…….like duh…..lol

            Did you hear about the HR 22 being passed on MSN..over the weekend? IF, not then that would be an example.

    Dec 09, 2015 09:11 PM

    Thanks FranSix, we all agree with you.

    Dec 09, 2015 09:23 PM

    NEW LAW…………concerning PASSPORTS……….HR22……..and your friendly tax man.
