joke on a leading indicator
today i got a call from my trader friend,we were discussing on markets and where to look for getting early indications for our market,we discusses on usual suspects dow n crude,as we discuss here,then he told me very interesting story( i named it a wall street satire ) ..one day Robert Mugabe,who is Zimbabwe chief extended his helping hand to us fed chief Ben Bernanke,mugabe offered ben one months stay in Zimbabwe,so fed chief can see the economic situation first hand ( for whom ,they dont know about current zimbabwe situation here are few figures.
.A soft drink bottle of Coke in Zimbabwe will cost you $15 billion Zimbabwe dollars.
A piece of bread costs $30 billion Zimbabwe dollars.
A $10 million Zimbabwe dollar payment is worth 0.0008 U.S. cents.
Zimbabwe citizens are allowed to withdraw only $25 billion Zimbabwe dollars per day, less than enough to buy a loaf of bread.
After imposing price controls last year, supplies of goods dried up, so the Zimbabwe government was forced to end price controls.
Under pressure from the German government,a company, that supplies Zimbabwe with tons of blank paper so it can print its dollar notes, has stopped sending its special paper to Zimbabwe. Thats OK, says, Zimbabwes Treasurer, we got a Plan B.,which is obvious printing invisible money by invisible machines)and also ben can discuss here with some distinguishing policy makers,on various monitory policies........,so i said jokingly( i mean here strictly jokingly,then we must see the chart of Zimbabwe stock exchange and get a clue,and it must be thousand points down,so U.S. will in long run go in to next bear wave,and here comes the shocker,my friend said zimbabwe is the highest out performing market in the world in 2007,it rose by up 12,000%....so when is the big bull ralley in dow?haha and i am not joking thogh i am laughing(is it called satire?)it can seriously happen,inflation will go up and for worsen market condition u.s.will pump more money(u.s.also printing money without gold as a collateral now a days)and that money first came in to stock market
