any news on the Chinese hike ?
Can someone explain to me plain simple - given where BDI/ BCI indexes are, one would presume it is only --what, a couple of bucks per barrel ? - to take oil around the Cape rather than through the Suez channel. So, why all the fuss and skyhigh Brent?

- ... I know this means nothing to you yet but, still, given the latest FED's statement, we notice that the MARKET disagrees witht the FED, and the 10 year yields are on their way to 3.8%
... would you still go for 2 dollars per Euro?
Why such a change (drop) in EONIA Overnight index?
