All banksters should pay attention esp US Fed, ECB & BoJ. This is what happens when the hens wake up

(RTTNews) - U.S. stock futures suggests nervousness ahead of a key parliament vote in Greek on austerity measures- a much needed approval to implement measures to appease Eurogroup officials before they can release further financing for the beleaguered nation.

As of 6:30 am ET, the Dow futures are rising 33 points, the S&P 500 futures are advancing 4.70 points and the Nasdaq 100 futures are gaining 9 points.

U.S. stocks advanced for a second straight day on Tuesday, as optimism concerning Greece successfully navigating through the parliament vote increased.

The major Asian markets ended mostly higher, with the buoyancy seen on Wall Street overnight, a positive industrial output data out of Japan and a rebound in commodity prices helping sentiment. Meanwhile, the Chinese market retreated sharply, with the Shanghai Composite receding over 1 percent. Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index ended flat.

Japan's Nikkei 225 average opened notably higher and moved roughly sideways for the rest of the session, closing up 148.28 points or 1.54 percent at 9,797, its closing level since May 11th.

The European markets are advancing strongly for a second straight session, with the major averages in the region trading with gains in excess of 1 percent each.

The Greek parliament is set to vote on austerity measures following 3 days of deliberations amid a lot of opposition from the public. The results of the vote are expected around 8 am ET.

Commodities are gaining further amid the weakening of the dollar.

Egypt here we come... Some MV is about to tank soon...

And since the first time the Greece cracks showed up in Nov 2009, their stock market has been "very bullish"... with or without bailout?!

Quick response to a breach of money mart price controls. CBK set a price ceiling on interbank, but, banks sort to exploit them. So keep banks in their place by not doing things in a conventional manner. Looks like a temporary solution though.

High interest rate currencies are now up, after doubts lingering in the market were removed following Greek's parliament vote in favour of austerity measures. The general market sentiment is less risk averse.

Reckon when Osama was Wanjiroed by Obama(How Kenyan this sounds?) , the Us dollar went ballistic, it was bullish for kedo 2+ weeks. That was risk aversion.

Of interest, today's British public sector strike is 85 years (8.6*10) after the 1926 strikes:

"In Britain, strikes still plagued the nation. Coal miners, who throughout history seem to have struck every time they have had a chance, went on another rampage. Many in the U.S. were looking for coal exports to pick up sharply as they had in previous years, exporting nearly four million tons of coal to Britain. But this time the Brits really got out of hand. The strikers tried to effect a naval blockade. The Royal Navy was called out with trained guns ready and ordered to blow the strikers out of the water if they did not give up the effort." Greatest Bull Market in History by Martin Armstrong, pg. 119


In addition, they are taking place 17.2 days (8.6*2) after 2011.45 (June 13/14th 2011) on the Economic Confidence Model.

Coincidence?

@KK - The UK protests pulled a crowd of approx 99000...

@Hisah. Let us try and answer the first question with a quote from Martin Armstrong:

"The Seven Year Drought Cycle

The agriculturals are all poised to generally double in price during this cycle. They will put tremendous pressure on Africa and the Middle East by famine and this will fuel further political unrest. So new highs are on the horizon for wheat, corn, oats, and soybean complex just to mention a few." Borrowing from the Rich to Keep Socialism Going pg 8

The Seven Year Drought Cycle he's referring to began in 2007 and will end in 2014. The latter date is important for it lines up with the 25.049 Cycle of War and Political Change:

1913: Advent of WWI
1938: Advent of WWII
1964: Advent of the Vietnam War
1989: Tiananmen Square, Fall of Berlin Wall
2014: ???

Markets, being collective and dynamic entities, are never wrong. The forex markets are possibly factoring in growing political unrest in East Africa due to rising food prices and famine.
