if you aren't a subscriber you can read the article for free by Googling the title. The key paragraph IMHO is...
"There is scope for further action by the Federal Reserve to ease financial conditions and strengthen the recovery," Mr. Bernanke wrote in a letter dated Aug. 22, a copy of which was obtained by The Wall Street Journal."
This gives us an insight into Bernanke's current thinking as of 2 days ago when he wrote the letter, and it seems based on the quote above that he is currently leaning towards additional accommodation. Of course we will learn more at the Jackson Hole event next week. |

| From: rkchris | 8/24/2012 11:21:37 PM | | | | | | | Thursdays ES 1398.00 low held above its cr1397.40 support. Today saw the ES run stops below 1397.40 & bullishly reverse back up to close @ 1410.25, which is coincident with 1410.00, the 50% retrace of the decline from 1424.75. Previous resistance @ cr1401.14 & cr1407.02 now act as sppt. Short term sentiment is supportive of a rally, having moved from a deeply o/b reading from 8/17 to 8/21, to an o/s condition on 8/23...... |

| To: humble1 who wrote (8799) | 8/26/2012 2:57:11 PM | | From: Joseph Silent | | | | H1: If this support holds I expect that we will see 1460 (approx) before very much else occurs.
I expected to hit 1440 approx earlier, but this correction before getting there suggests we will go a little higher. After that target we should have another correction.
Time has a way of settling all such crazy conjectures. |
