So, this thread isn't really an overall view of the market, good and bad.

It's a financial doom thread?

Only the negatives and bad news?

Just asking as this is the first time I've come across this thread.

Re: Total Financial News, Stocks, Bonds, Foreign Markets..
haven't posted here lately, because i've been very busy

thought i make an exception today

technicals of the USD/JPY (weekly & monthly chart) are looking very very ominous. The commencing of a huge bear rally could happen any day now. This bear rally could last at least a couple of weeks, if not months.

USD/JPY will drag equities with it.


It's the downward pressure on the Euro what's causing all this. The ECB money creating measures PLUS the escalating situation in Ukraine. Then there's that Iceland volcano..
EUR/JPY , USD/JPY and other JPY-crosses will tank because of this. These are the most overbought crosses. And a failing Abenomics will only reinforce this.

I am really going to buy two gas masks. Seriously.
What you will read below is my most doom moment ever in this blog, and I have reasons for it.

It’s not the fissure that worries, not even it it’s a large event, or if the dike reaches Askja, but what it really worries me, is Bardarbunga caldera.

I reckon that a few more M5,8-M6 quakes, along with more draining of magma from within the caldera, and I think the caldera will start to collapse. That’s a powerful beating to the caldera, which by the way has not gone caldera for millenia.

We are already seeing extensive ring faulting, and quite large quakes. Total seismic energy release there has been already equivalent to a M6. About 25% of the threshold of what I think is necessary to pop the lid out, according to mine and Geolurking’s guessestimates. We could of course be wrong.

So, what to expect if it really goes caldera?

– A powerful VEI6 eruption, about 10+ km3 tephera (that’s several times more than Askja, Oraefajokull or the large eruptions of Hekla)
– Ash deposited all across Iceland. At least 1cm everywhere, and perhaps deposits many cms thick. Think 20cm or more. Icelanders migrating on emergency to Reykjavik. Farm sector of Iceland becomes impossible. Tourism too. Iceland suffers major economic losses, and it will be a stress daily life, dealing with so much ash. Many will just travel away. Because for many life in certain parts of Iceland will be impossible.
– Ash deposited in Scotland and Norway of a few mm. European disruption of airlines is massive.
– Worldwide disruption of climate. Severe cold winters. Cold summers. Large economic losses, and further social unrest, but overall it’s not the end of our western way of living, just a severe setback in some things.
– Definitively panic would appear because of airline disruption.

So this is not end of the world, but a nasty scenario. Especially for me. Trouble is we are getting within a reasonable percentage of likelihood for that. It’s not a far fetched scenario anymore. It is possible at the moment. And it’s progressing towards it. Albeit we do not know how much energy is required for that.
