Swiss National Bank Governor Jordan weekend comments – will cut rates even further ‘if necessary’

what will come next, between now and opec vienna meeting nov 30?

it was PUTIN's words.

let's see if the rally will break june high of 51.50.

  Sounds like they wanted to "raise" the limit.

What just happened?  How come dow drop so much all of a sudden?

it's a dicey situation now.

it's basically all talk, no action yet.

any cut will be only be agreed on nov 30.

and history says everyone will cheat.

but... the financial markets have bought the talk, so it goes up.

can't fight that.
i think tmrw the paris based iea will release its oct report.

this report usually swing things quite a bit, so we'll see if the tune is "supply glut persist, " well in balance" or "demand will outstrip supply".

and there is api/eia data tmrw too.

will be a hectic day tmrw for oil.

OPEC sec-gen says freeze deal to last six months, then to be reviewed

Ah yes, already out.

Not much reaction from markets, though.

I read it as demand not strong, supply glut still on but hope pins on opec cut.

So, will opec cut, cut big or cut small....?

Trump is good at playing poker.. so, he may still have a lot of hidden cards (or fire power) within the next 30 days till election. Don't count him out yet. 

I actually wish he could win... then, the market will go into shock mode and drop 10%.
Then, we go in and buy buy buy.  After that, cooler heads will prevail, he like other presidents before him will succumb
political pressure.. and will revitalize it again with more QEs with the help from the Feds.  

Putin's up for freezing but not cutting oil output

that caused a 2% drop, then recover 1.5%.

will take 49 mil bbls to crash it.

the bulls are still buying the opec talk, it would seem.

Anyone else holding either NVDA or AMD? BABA's announcement on collaboration with AMD just shot AMD up by >5%. Gonna see if AMD will break $7 again & find support there.

dow is up 1xx, but wti retreated and barely holding above 50.
