No Turkey Rally for the Bulls

Europe led all of today’s action after a German bond auction went bid less for 35% of the paper. Yields across Europe were okay until about 10am when they sky rocketed.

All in all it was not such a bad day, could have been a 500 point day, but when you put 6 of them together for a 7% murder hole today did hurt.

DOW off 234

NASDAQ off 61

S&P off 26

{SHOCK VIDEO} COLD FINGER WAR: Russian Anchorman Gives Obama the Middle Finger

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=E7jKKZTpzh4

Online footage of the incident, which occurred earlier this month during an afternoon news bulletin on the privately held REN TV channel, is being avidly viewed in both Russia and the United States.

In the footage, Tatyana Limanova, an award-winning senior newsreader at the channel, can be seen briskly reading out an item about how Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has just assumed the rotating chairmanship of the Asia Pacific Cooperation organisation.

She is then heard to say that the post “has (previously) been held by Barack Obama” before mechanically and unambiguously raising her left arm and showing the camera her raised middle finger in an offensive gesture that is sometimes known as “flipping the bird.”

The channel, which goes out to 120 million people across Russia, has declined to comment. But sources close to it have tried to defuse the row by claiming that the newsreader had believed she was off camera at the time and merely providing a voice-over for a report. According to the same storyline, the rude gesture was intended for studio technicians who had been trying to put her off her stride.

REN TV has traditionally been perceived as a more liberal channel in a country where TV content is tightly controlled by the state. But it is now controlled by structures owned by a close ally of Vladimir Putin, the prime minister, and has been criticised for allegedly becoming more slavish to the Kremlin.

The scandal comes at a time when US-Russia relations appear to be getting worse after President Obama’s much-heralded attempt to “reset” them.

The United States has announced it is to stop supplying the Kremlin with regular details about its military presence in Europe in retaliation for a similar Russian move four years ago. Moscow is also frustrated it is not being given a say in Nato’s nascent European missile defence system.

Sources at REN TV said Ms Limanova would not be punished for her slip-up despite the embarrassment it has caused the channel.

EIA report lower crude, higher gasoline inventories

Here’s the excerpt from squawkbox on the EIA crude oil inventories report:

Summary is a 6.2 million drawdown in crude oil with a 4.5 million build in gasoline.

welcome back to squawk on the street. numbers are out for inventories and it’s a mixed report. bigger than expected draw down when it came to crude, down 6.2 million barrels but we also saw a bigger than expected build in gasoline similar to the apis last night of nearly 4.5 million barrel build in gasoline. overall, though, the energy markets, commodities overall, under pressure this morning with that disappointing bond auction in germany, disappointing pmi data coming out of china earlier, coming in with a reading of 48 which would say a little contraction in manufacturing there, so that already had this market worried. jpmorgan downgrading commodities but investors seem to be doing that on their own. we’ll get the eai invin tone for nat gas a little later today. thanks. some stories we’re squawk
