Bots are telling you right now that risk is on.
The U.S. markets were resilient the past few days.
UBS makes the case mathmatically why it would be a simple fix for BRICS to buy Euro debt.
China announced they would consider buying debt.
As fucked up as the EU is they are still trying their best to work things out.
CNBC announced Geithner will attend the next EU meeting. As mentioned by them he is an expert on TARP. Something Europe could use to keep the party going.
Are problems solved…hardly, but the markets want to rally and some breathing room has been provided. Don’t forget the clam meets next week.
So it looks like risk on for now. Looking for a potentially rally up to 1240-1250 S&P.
If you want to play it safe think ETF. I bot TYH, TNA, and believe it or not FAS.

Comments »China Now Willing to Buy Sovereign Debt
“China is willing to buy bonds from nations involved in the sovereign debt crisis, National Development and Reform Commission Vice Chairman Zhang Xiaoqiang said in an interview with the media in Dalian yesterday.
China is willing to offer assistance, Zhang said without elaborating, adding that Premier Wen Jiabao made similar remarks earlier, according to a transcript distributed on the planning agency’s website yesterday evening. Caijing magazine attended the briefing and published an article earlier.
Wen, speaking at the World Economic Forum in Dalian yesterday, signaled that that developed nations should cut deficits and open markets rather than rely on China to bail out the world economy. China can best contribute to the global economic recovery by ensuring steady growth at home, he said.
“Countries must first put their own houses in order,” Wen said. “Developed countries must take responsible fiscal and monetary policies. What is most important now is to prevent the further spread of the sovereign debt crisis in Europe.”

Greece Gets To Stay in The Union; U.S. Markets Rally on Statement
Today’s meeting produces largely nothing other than quelling fears that Greece would not get kicked out of the union.
Never thought they might get kicked out, but rather default and bow out if anything.
Sarcozy and Merkel issued a joint statement that they were “convinced Greece’s future is in the euro zone.
Putting into place commitments of the (bailout) programme is essential for the Greek economy to return to a path of lasting and balanced growth,”
