Hope you're not flooded out or blown away with this wild weather we've been having!
In your earlier post you mentioned this:
I know there's no real source for this but I thought it was interesting...

U$D Selloff Continues in Eastern Bloc
The 'U$D selloff' emails on Steve's page originally came from this post on the Final Phase forum

The original source of the story entitled 'Central Bank stops supporting dollar' came from
http://newsfromrussia.com/main/2004/10/22/56751.html
Some of the original postings elsewhere for this story gave a WND link, which actually led to a story about witches and Halloween. As of a few moments ago however, it's a broken link.

Since this broke last night more (possibly related) info has come to light, here's an article by Martin F. Goldberg with the cathcy headline 'CHART FISSURES SUGGEST SOMETHING BIG IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN'

As I said in my post #1292 yesterday I know nothing of financial markets so whether all of the above is much ado about nothing, or maybe a clue as to what may be coming down the pike I will have to leave to the more financially-savvy members of the thread...
I wonder if the link was broke because the story was pulled? Something this big SHOULD hit other financial sources such as the WSJ if it is valid.

Reading his article, there are some interesting anomolys, particularly with volume versus change on a few of the charts. However, the trends he picked out on many others were not unlike the minimal historical data included. Not a financial guru, he may be evaluating the data properly, but I wish he'd placed it in a greater historical context.
I'm not very savvy with the markets myself. I did watch the Bloomberg channel last night and they said the dollar was in decline against foreign currencies. I suppose the market doesn't like uncertainty so until the election there is going to be at least some impact in that direction. Will be keeping an eye out for any more stories related to this.
