Jon Nadler

Speculation early this morning was that U.S. employers likely have cut only 150,000 jobs in the month of October, a figure which would be the lowest in more than a year.

Yesterday Beans were 27 cents lower, Corn 7 lower and Wheat 8 lower. Over night Beans were fractionally higher, Corn 1 lower and Wheat slightly higher. Jan. Beans are now in support below the 977'0 level and I am going to try the long side of the market with a 25 cent risk from entry level. Support for Dec. Corn remains just below the 371...

The Energy Report for Thursday, November 5, 2009
Phil Flynn

Carry on my carry trade. We'll be in pieces when it's done. Put all your bearish thoughts to rest; don't you sell no more. The Fed use to rise above the noise and confusion and give us a glimpse beyond the illusion. Yet gold was soaring ever higher and it flew to a high. The threat of bubbles was clear to a blind man.
