omg, i just entered the date of his keynote address and ariba, one of his top ten holdings, into a historical quote web site. this stock was trading at about 800. now it goes for 6. "You want winners? You want me to put my Cramer Berkowitz hedge fund hat on and just discuss what my fund...

i think probably the best time to do it is November. Bernanke is a shoe in. Hubbard, Kohn, Feldstien were shoe-ins too. The confirmation process shouldn't take a long time. I think doing this outside of Oct and after earnings season would have been more prudent.

cnbc suggesting bernanke. buy gold.

i just don't understand why bush would nominate a fed chairman when the market has been swooning - and swooning in october, to boot. not a very shrewd move on his part or the part of his advisors.

used to hate him. don't mind him now at all. he has a really tough job, which i don't envy. i don't hink many people in america could do what he does. i do fear he'll die of a heart attack though.

ah, this is what i was looking for. there aren't enough of these posts. no fear in the market empee. you might get your wish.

that maniac was probably on the bottom once for a while too. he or she likely wasn't born in a private jet.

i don't think this is a fair analogy. i think simmons makes most of his money from his investment banking company, not from a newsletter, like gilder. his predictions are getting a little bit out there, though.

any idea what's up with refco private client (formerly lind waldock)? i have a little bit of change in that one.

pretty sure they were only futures contracts. i also think he used no leverage, so even if his positions were unwound i doubt they would make much of a dent in the market. but that's just my ignorant opinion.

first, i'll preface this recommendation by saying this is probably a terrible point to go short, and a great time to go long. evidence is pointing to a short term bottom here. but if you're going long term short here (multi-year) i would, in agreement with the previous poster, recommend a...

is it possible to insure accounts against bank and broker seizure or theft through a 3rd party, not fdic/sipc? if so what are the rates?

in a salespitch for his fund and commodities in general, rogers always claimed that commodities could never go to zero. maybe, in this case, he was wrong.

this market is a nice trade down until we start seeing somre real crash fears rather than "inflation concerns." we didn't see a bottom in april until the black monday posts started flooding these boards. people were really afraid then, not just concerned.

my guess is it's probably bernanke, but maybe feldstien.

it's time has come? or perhaps there is no reason at all. I just read a paper that stipulates in the long run interest rate differentials have an effect on the price of currency pairs, but in the short run price movements approximate a random walk.

the most important degrees for making money are: - a decent degree of intellectual talent - a good degree of creativity and salesmanship (marketing savvy) - a very high degree of drive and passion the alphabet degrees (PHD, MBA) are usually a manifestation of some, if not all of the...

well, it's a slaughterhouse today. especially for the shares.:eek:
