This is just the first one, things are going to start unwinding more rapidly now.

I think the fed will start raising rates in 6 months.

I agree with the 10k but I think in 12 months we are going to be experiencing deflation not stagflation.

hahahahaha First of all oil could easily drop to 110 without us seeing any difference at the pumps. Second of all the likelyhood of oil taking a crap is pretty slim until the dollar gets stronger. The likelyhood of the dollar getting stronger is pretty slim until the fed raises the...

No matter who the president is, he is going to be handed a giant disaster of a situation. The next president isn't going to be able to do one thing w/o putting us further into deficit. Bill Gross is politicking in this article. McCain and Obama both have plenty of policy plans that will...

These legislatures are such a joke. This "speculation" or "bubble" can be directly attributed to policies that they vote for or can change. Imagine if we weren't in iraq. Imagine if they have had the balls to be forward thinking and raise the mpg standards significantly. Imagine if they...

We are in an election year, the fed will sneak around raising rates until it is forced to. I would look for them to bend some more rules, we are going to see another new acronym.

The most curious question right now is what will the fed do. They have been reacting to every single recent market shock by either a rate cut or a sudden injection of liquidity into the markets. The market tanking 3% today certainly qualifies for a reaction if we base the "fed panic...

From the figures I have seen they have spent approximately half of their 800 billion on their sub prime swapathon.

What is it with all these traders that talk about themselves in the third person? Your prediction is a hard sell consideringciti's announcement that they are cutting 7000 jobs tomorrow. Not too mention the asian markets plummeted at the open.

You are correct in saying that the Fed's job is not to fix the stock market, but that doesn't mean that they are doing their job properly.

july oil is up 6 cents.

he just loves coming up with these ridiculous economic policy "solutions". I am curious who his advisers are on this one.
