Friday Outlook: Commodities, Emerging Markets

<< Return to page 1 - Out of Options?















































Okay, that will wrap up this week for us. I’m in Ontario, CA for the TradersExpo and a visit with our son. I’ll be speaking at a panel here on Saturday around noon. I notice that attendance is quite light here by comparison to past conferences. This means travel expenses are high while investor moods are low. This place is 50 miles from LA and is no easy drive for folks in the area.

Options and futures for the quarter expire today. Volume is building in advance and you should expect some strange activity by the close today as astute options players in particular try to pick-off expiring contracts.

Due to travel back over the weekend posting may not resume until early next week.

Have a pleasant weekend.

nice charts.

p.s. someone not knowing Chucky is definitely out-of-touch - but "stick save"?? a huge number of people on the wall street (from europe/asia etc like myself) are unlikely to know the term. perhaps "stick save" isn't so common on the east coast. i asked a few US citizens on my floor - and none knew it either and then I had to google.

Always look forward to your posts, David! Please keep them coming!

"But, I guess I need some sort of slang glossary since another readers asked me last week what a “stick save” was." I'm still laughing... :)
