Qin,
I read their full report today and watched the meeting live on TV.
If things are going well in markets forward, then they will probably increase it by 0.25% in Oktober. They actually thought about increasing now in September.
But as you now see, oil is getting a big hit. I don't think this is over yet. But their forecast for now is in October.
In Norway things are looking allot better than their forecast, but as I mentioned earlier, many times, Norway must also look after their export, so they are reluctant to have a strong NOK when the rest of the world is still struggling.
We will see, good luck.

Redstone,
Why 170 or 150? This is like predicting hell or maybe heaven for investors, it's like predicting up or maybe down?
Do you beleive in a stronger USD or a stronger GBP?

Hi Qin. Yes, thank you, I had a nice trip.
Norways interest meeting is tomorrow, the rate will stay unchanged. But it is a big possibility that they will raise it in October, by 0.25%. The Industry is going much better than expected here and housing prizes are increasing. The CentralBank is scared of making a housing bubble.... but at the same time they don't want to make the export industry struggle with a strong NOK.
We will see.

A story about Norwegian brokers....

A farmer was watching his sheeps when they walk around on his field. Suddenly a new BMW 5-series show up on the road beside.

A guy in Armani-dress and Gucci shoes, with Ray Ban sunglasses and a YSL-tie sticks his head out of the car-window og shouts to the farmer: "If I can tell you exactly how many sheeps you have on your field, can I then get one of them for free?"

The farmer look at the guy - thinking "What a cheeky little guy" and he look at his sheeps that is spread around on the field, and answer:" No problem, you have a deal!".

The guy parks his BMW, opens up a Dell notebook, connects the newest Nokia mobile phone to it and surfs to a NASA website, calls up the latest GPS-satellite-navigationsystem, gets the exact position of the terrain. He feeds this information into another NASA-satellite wich scans the field with a camera with ultra-high-resolution.

Then he opens the digital picture in Adobe Photoshop and export it to another website: Image processing Facility in Hamburg. Within seconds he get an email in return on his Palm Pilot - It says: "Picture Processed and stored".

Then he logs into a MS-SQL database through ODBC and connect up an excel spreadsheet with hundreds of advanced formulas. He loads all the data down through the email-post to an Xircom and within a second he gets respons.

At the end he print out a 4-coloured, 150 page report on his hitech-miniature HP Colour LaserJet and take a last glance at the last page:
He then say, "you got exactly 1586 animals"

The farmer:"That is correct, so you can have one of my sheeps now"

The farmer look at the guy while he is trying to get one of his animals into the back of the BMW. Then he says:"If I could guess what your profeccion is, would you give me the animal back?"

The young guy, thinking abit before he replies "Ok, why not".

The farmer:" You are a stock-broker".

Young guy:"That is correct, how could you guess it?"

The farmer:" It is not guessing, you came here without anyone asking you, then you wanted to get paid for answering me about something I already know, and I wouldn't even have asked the silly question.
Besides you have no clue about my business. So can you now be so kind to open the hood and give me my dog back?!!!!!!"

Asad,
It is by time. Let it all go down from here! No fundamentals at all. However, inflationary dollar might give a false up-term... Insanity. But many other bubbles to come! Trade them all!

Asad, going short is not always too easy, you know this.
Anyway, where do you see oil, WTI going now, breaking the last top or going down.... I am frustrated, the bulls are so strong in this market, living on air, love and hope....
No fundamentals...
