    @FresnoHawk68 

     Again, you are talking about a 70-80$B intervention against a backdrop of 7-8$T daily market.

    Sure, the yen moved ~ 4%.  The Euro had little to no lasting impact.

    The main reason it really made news is that it is not often done and it may force an unwinding of the carry trade.

    That is what traders care about.

    Accuser #1 Lindsey Fifield is a Republican Operative!

    Accuser #2 Jenny Racicot was discredited by the Very Magazine who published the Story Politico! Politico clearly states they could not get Jenny’s witness to go on record to verify her story! So the question is why Politico did you write the story? Politico is a known Dem Media outlet, they destroyed Graham so the Republicans couldn’t push their lies about Graham! Dems would say “truth doesn’t matter” winning the election does! I would say Maine didn’t give a crap about Graham’s 1 night stands & you fools destroyed the career of a Good Dem Politician, Good Politicians are rare for both Parties!

    I told everyone on this thread my source spoke to the Collin’s campaign about Graham kicking her butt in the Polls! The source in the Collins Campaign stated “we’re not worried once the deadline is past we’re gonna release info that will crush Graham” Democrats got wind of what the Collins campaign was up to so they got ahead of it using Politico to destroy Graham so they could replace him.

    The Dems did the same thing with Eric Swalwell! Eric was a lock to win the Cali Gov election but Republicans had dirt on Swalwell & the Dems found out! Then the Dems destroyed Swalwell before the Primary so they could replace him with Becerra.

    This event proves my source was telling the truth! I keep telling you guys the Republicans are retarded & I keep showing you some of the Republican retardation.

    Swalwell was guilty & Graham is most likely innocent.

     Accuser #2 Jenny Racicot was discredited by the Very Magazine who published the Story Politico!

    This is false.  There is no broadly accepted evidence that she is 'discredited'.  Her allegation is disputed simply because she accused him of SA and he denied it.  There has been no court ruling saying she fabricated her story.

    Politico clearly states they could not get Jenny’s witness to go on record to verify her story!

    This is not true either.  Politico did not publish a retraction or say Racicot was discredited. Instead, Politico stood by its reporting and described the corroboration it relied on.  

    They have admitted there were limits to what it could verify.  But they reported that they reviewed the emails between her and her therapist, interviewed a man she confided in, and reviewed messages where she warned another warning another woman about Platner years before his campaign.  

    The sort of true part is that every potential witness or evidence would or could not be made public.  But that is far different than saying Politico had no corroboration.

    So the question is why Politico did you write the story? 

    This is an opinion.  Politico's stated reason was that they believed the allegation met their editorial standards based on multiple interviews and corroborating materials.

    Politico is a known Dem Media outlet, 

    Opinion.  Independent media-bias organizations generally rate Politico as centrist to lean left in news coverage, but not as an official Democratic outlet.

    they destroyed Graham so the Republicans couldn’t push their lies about Graham! 

    Speculation.  There is no evidence establishing that Politico published the story for that purpose.

    Dems would say “truth doesn’t matter” winning the election does! I would say Maine didn’t give a crap about Graham’s 1 night stands & you fools destroyed the career of a Good Dem Politician, Good Politicians are rare for both Parties! 

    That is not supported either.  Polls show they had concerns about his issues and of course the SA allegation was the last straw for a lot of folks and they started withdrawing support for him.  It was not just the 'one-night stands' -- he had a lot going on that was working against him.

    So, the biggest issue is the assertion that she was discredited and the implication being that was the sole, or main, reason Platner was forced away.

    Well that is based on the assumption having a “strong” currency is good ! You do know that some countries deliberately try to devaluate their currency right ? The ONLY effect it does have is that the JPY/EUR exchange rate go up  temporarily- but since the demand for EURs outshine JPY - it will quickly go back to have had no effect at all ! - that is not necessarily bad for Europe - most speculate that Europe wants a weaker currency so our exports go up - we are basically owning so much that we have the option to choose what we want - while you and Japan have so fucked up economies - you are bound in your decisions

    It is a little similar when the Bank of England tried keeping their exchange rate locked - which eventually led to their crash ! You can’t use USD - because the carry trade primarily involve those two currencies ! You taking a big gamble using EURs because we haven’t allowed you to - and the demand for EURs are very high !! So you are basically trying to go against the market forces !! I don’t think I have to remind you that it has never happened before the market has lost in cases like this - and it has a clean record of sweeping big entities and countries off the map - when they have tried to intertwine

    And as I told you in another thread - EU controls the biggest internal and external markets in the world - and it is not even close - so you are playing with forces here that is way out of your league - hopefully we won’t consider it you trying to do us a favour because it sure as hell isn’t even though this helps us achieve what we want ! I hope we will use this opportunity to teach you a lesson an_cheers

    You making moves like this shows the market you are a hurt animal - you might as well have put up a sign telling the market to take advantage of your situation ! - hopefully you don’t calculate how much money the market could make if it made you crash - or whatever it doesn’t really matter because the market will make those calculations and trade accordingly when it thinks the time is right an_speechlesspaint_helpan_burn_money

     Look man we’ve argued about Dollar vs Euro War, you deny it even though it’s obvious! If USA continues to dump Euro to buy Yen that & all the other problems you guys have it’s RIP.

    This time next year you get to watch all of the Racist Ukrainians flood into your country & watch your tax $ diverted to feed them! Then there’s the Middle East!

    Yes it would be bad if you guys and Japan defaulted - no question about that - but don’t make it worse than it is for us - yeah you are screwed - NO QUESTON ABOUT THAT ! But this system we have now has only been like this for 80 years we survived 1000s of years before it was in place - hell we survived 1000s of years before you were even thought up as a concept ! We will also survive your demise

    The main thing it would influence is that right now when you want to exchange two currencies - you first have to exchange to USD - but that is a system you have made and enforce while we control most of the systems making it happen ! There would be no stopping us from rerouting that process to be another currency in the long-term if that is what we want to go for - after we have mourned the loss of you (for a few minutes - the few of us that has fond memories of what you once were and not what you have become !) so yeah it would be a pain in the butt - and it would rewire trade for a few years COVID style - but after 4-5 years it would be “do you remember that country called US?”

    You have one of the most “closed” markets in the world (you are basically just circle jerking yourself of - For the global market you are just a consumer - Those can be replaced !) ! It would be WAY worse for the world as a whole if Europe or China disappeared from the global stage than if you did an_cheerswin

    Chinese yuan is not a reserve currency, it is a closed loop currency meaning Russia China North korea Iran and other nations can use this currency with being permission. The basis is the yuan is a country controlled currency and no foreigner can own it .

    Federal reserve is actually a private banks note that American backs but doesn't actually own....

    @ calde. He has no legitimate form of currency that holds value because of its roatation in eu dollars the old ones must be replaced by new ones and the swiss once had bearer bonds but has abandoned them do to forgery concerns.

    Eu must pay in gold in most cases when dealing with I other countries in trade....

    Their like a tiger with dentures when actually implementing sanctions.

    A new reserve currency is that all money can be transferred to Bitcoin. This is an actual currency but the fluctuate in markets and it's volutbiltity has made it a lesser valued commodity versus the fed or hard gold.

    And how have we divested from this thread Troy in national polls has moved from 48 to 50 percent as Collins now slumped below the margin of error....

    @ raiders how you can be so tolerant to those who never al2agered a future investment is a mark of a great man...at times I wish I could ride to your level...maybe with time I suppose peace_5

    You got jealous a hated guy like me knows more about Politics than you, then you spewed Nonsense which I corrected! Then you got furious, lost your mind jumping on some BS & telling everyone here to bet on Susan Collins before the Odds changed! I corrected that too!

    Now you’re Chiming in on Reserve Currency, Currency, & Bitcoin! Your financial understanding is less accurate than your ability to count Senate Seats & understand the Dynamics & Power in the USA Senate!

    Awe feelings hurt hawk? Please... If we bet a Superbowl out for example and we place a unit 100 on patriots. That ticket is worth money until either the last are eliminated or the Superbowl is over. The market dictates the buy back ... So you feel superior and need to dismiss me by slander ....

     

    Cause Graham is not relevant stop being a fan. Start playing smart or your just run over road kill in your trade.... We are business it's only that and words are hype blah blah blah... But what algorithms are you using to gain an edge... The voices in your head.

    We deal in probable possible and an edge of money cause even neg 110 to neg 110 is a toss up loss...

    What do you understand if it costs you a dime to flip a quarter than you are owned by the house go get more quarters cause we got em all at the end of the day.

    Grow up this is just business bro  no alliance or enemy s always anything Troy vs Susie what both are moderates from a nothing county in USA. However Ms collins has a seat on appropriation and ways and means. And Troy will be irrelevant unless he is around to become a lion in the Senate too after 4 terms he will be susans age and might be a ranking chair in farm comitee...too long I watched this theater... So let's make money ...that seat now matters

     lol dude I bought Bitcoin at $50 in 2012 & always kept dozens of Bitcoins to use to buy Rare Marijuana seeds on online Auctions! Then left around a dozen on a wallet that’s been sitting in storage 100s of miles from my current location that I haven’t seen or visited in 15 years! I sold Bitcoin last year @ it’s peak! And if you read my post you could conclude I recently acquired several bitcoin from my recent cash outs from Sportsbooks.

    “Algorithms of Futures” you clearly don’t know what you’re talking about! How many times have I stated we’re in the Quantum Age? We are! You just put the Cart before the Horse!

    How much money did you bet on Susan Collins?

     This thread is about the Maine Senate Election! The merit of the accusations against Graham Platner! Nature1970 (A Dem leaner) told the Dems here to bet on Republican Susan Collins because he believe the Dem Candidate Troy was gonna be disqualified!

    I tried to stop that nonsense!
