So ... we have had 2 years ... and Bond yields have failed to be "pushed to near 0 soon." How's that theory standing up right about now? Well ... Nigel is not going to volunteer an answer, that's certain, since he is a little embarrassed at the recent massive rises in yields. "In late...

So... it looks like it is back-off ... fast ... time for the IPCC! All of those who gave the "denialists" so much stick can now apologise ... we were right! http://wattsupwiththat.com/2013/09/14/breaking-ipcc-ar5-report-to-dial-back-climate-sensitivity/...

Re: The 3 Ducks Trading System What does that mean ... they retired?

Google "Nanningbob" ... just an answer to your question ... ... and just a guess too!

Thank you Rigel7 for that,and PBoyles for the CIPF pdf - these will be very useful here in Australia for the following reasons: Deloitte have been appointed interim administrator for MFG Australia it seems. However their fees are atrociously OUTRAGEOUS and seem totally disconnected from the...

Good work Donaldduke. This is the reason I do not have excess funds with my broker IG Markets - I do not need to, and they do not pay me interest on my money. If IG Markets goes bust, they won't get more than a day's pay out of me. The other reason is what has just happened with MF Global - no...

That is good news. Their reg #160065 is "Currently Authorised" on the FSA register, so yes, you are correct. What a sad state of affairs though - it must be difficult for both the firm and clients caught up in this. I guess management took risks based on older modelling - and with the GCF...

There are quite a few proviso's in that link though: If your financial services provider or advisor goes into default, you will only be eligible for FSCS compensation if your provider is authorised by the FSA. So it’s important to check in advance that they have FSA authorisation (sometimes...

That would be ok if it was a bank. But I don't think it applies to companies or other investments. We would then have the moral hazard problem, of people taking risks knowing that the company would be bailed out in a loss situation. I am certain that here in Australia the Federal Government...

I wonder how N Rothschild feels now about the Bond markets, Greece's 50% haircut, the safety of the Bond market etc ectc etc. I am still laughing over his ill-informed rant about "bond yields being pushed to near zero." It has nothing to do with the government pushing yields down, because...

You can kiss your money goodbye I'm afraid. Many traders think that having their funds "segregated" equates to having their funds secure in the event of bankruptcy. The small print - and IG Index is exactly the same - states that they DO segregate your funds from other trading monies, but that...

The truth is beginning to emerge now. In Australia, Bob Brown, the leader of "The Greens" who have balance-of-power privileges in Australia's Senate (upper house) had this to say: http://www.theage.com.au/national/brown-advocates-for-one-world-parliament-20110629-1gqz1.html Put his desire for...

Re: Forex trading made E-Z/ Nial Fuller I agree with the general gist of your post, Black Swan. And sadly, the part about the outcome of competitive behaviour has more than a grain of truth in it. This is probably why the unscrupulous operators operate under fictitious names when they sell...

Why do people repeat innuendo and hearsay? Why does someone have to hurt someone else to make a case? The facts are that Nial Fuller had his website – LTTTM - up and running long before he joined the J16 forum. Of course it is easy to say “Nial was a member, therefore he ripped me off.” The...
