 Okay folks, Larry Pesavito giving you the mid-afternoon update here at TFNN. We've got the stock market under some pressure. Bonds are incredibly under pressure. As usual, they keep going lower and lower, very close to major support at 12311 folks in that March Treasury bond. So sort of play attention to that one. It's going to be very, very interesting because we'll be switching over to the December here very, very shortly. I think just in a day or so that we'll be switching over. Crude oil is up a little bit after being lower. There's news that China is trying to negotiate a truce between the Ukraine and the Russian governments, and I want to wish them the very best of luck with that. A 12-step piece, I think it was involved. I read some of them and I said, gee, they seem a little far-fetched, but you never know. Stranger things have happened. The other thing to pay attention to today, folks, besides the Treasury bonds and Treasury notes, because much lower today and we're going to be looking at sharply higher rates, much, much higher than some people think. I don't know whether that's going to happen or not, but you know, folks, nobody else does either. The thing is to watch the Euro because we're getting, we're below 106.5 now. Unfortunately, I covered all my short positions from 108 and 19 and 110 down there at that 106 level. Now we're going to be able to see what's going to happen to it as we come into early March, which will be coming up very, very shortly. So that's what we're watching here today. I hope that helps. The gold market is still going lower, folks. We're getting really close to 1800. I think we're only about $14 away. That is a major ABCD pattern and also a 50% retracement. Remember, the 382 retracement came in at 1845, rallied for about six hours and then continued to go lower. And as we suggested, you know, once it went below 1838, that it was most probably going to be heading down to that level. And it gave you three or four really nice shorting opportunities if you would have been watching them relatively closely. So I hope these things help as we give you the mid-morning update. Now, one thing that we want to be looking at today also is the Japanese end, folks, and I'll be talking about that on my show coming up here in about three minutes. So stay tuned and we'll see what happens. 877-927-6648.
