SUMMARY<BR>The dollar opens slightly lower on North American financial 
markets.&nbsp; The<BR>dollar seems to be pressured by the lack of interest by 
German officials to<BR>ease interest rates.&nbsp; Stock and bond markets are 
stable and should not be a<BR>major factor to dollar trade 
today.<BR><BR>ASIA<BR>*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Japanese 
Ministry of Finance reported on foreign bond purchases<BR>for the month of 
September.&nbsp; Japanese investors&nbsp; purchased a net JPY 1.112<BR>trillion 
yen ($9.25 billion) in foreign bonds.&nbsp; The October report will 
be<BR>closely watched to see what the impact of recent FX volatility has been 
on<BR>Japanese foreign investment.<BR>*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The 
Japanese current account climbed 43.6% over year ago levels<BR>during the month 
of August.&nbsp; To no surprise, imports were off following the<BR>general state 
of the Japanese economy.<BR>*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Japanese 
stocks were modestly lower.&nbsp; Even as the upper house is<BR>preparing to 
approve bank legislation, bank stocks fell once again.<BR>Sumitomo Bank 
announced plans to cut 2,000 jobs from its retail staff over<BR>the next 5 
years.<BR><BR>EUROPE<BR>*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Bundesbank 
President Tietmeyer dashed any hope of easing German<BR>interest rates.&nbsp; 
Tietmeyer warned against any easing in monetary policy that<BR>would be in 
excess of what was required by domestic economic 
fundamentals.<BR>*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; GBP fell to a 1 week low 
against the Deutsche Mark.&nbsp; The fall was<BR>aided by the Bank of England's 
George who said that the currency decline was<BR>positive for UK industry.&nbsp; 
Speculation also remains for a possible easing in<BR>UK interest rates next 
month.<BR><BR>AMERICAS<BR>*&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Labor 
Department reported that Producer Prices rose 0.3% in<BR>September.&nbsp; The 
core rate (excluding food and energy) was up 0.4%.&nbsp; Both the<BR>headline 
and core numbers were higher than expected by market analysts.<BR>While final 
costs were up, the cost of goods in earlier stages of production<BR>were 
lower.&nbsp; This should indicate that inflation remains under 
control.<BR></FONT></DIV>

Thanks to all those who encouraged me to dump AXP, I did and freed up the
capital to start recouping and hopefully getting ahead too.

<P>Just discovered from DATEK that sell orders are prioritised to cover
longs before short sells. Is there anyway that one can find out these neat
things that would make a difference in trading strategy?
