    A Texas Sarah Palin...

    This is very promising, and inspiring. I will seriously consider moving to Texas if she wins. BTW, Texas should seek independence.

    Globalfutures, Advantagefutures or Velocityfutures ?

    No, you are missing the point, and jeb9 is exactly right. Customer funds must be available immediately and in full. Anything less is totally unacceptable. I can not understand why any brokers are even allowed to operate in any other manner.

    Is GOLD (/silver/etc) a bubble?

    That must be a rhetorical question. Of course gold, as priced in dollars, will shoot up, if the euro bounces. Since that means the dollar is going down.

    Olympic hockey predictions

    What a great tournament, and a great final. The best team won, but the second best was not far behind. Just too bad the Americans couldn't enjoy their silvers, 2nd place is worth much more than such a disappointed face. They really looked like bad losers. Anyway, congratulations Canada!!!

    Marc Faber, Dollar Will Eventually Go to Value of Zero, Oct 26, 2009

    Sure. And since that time we had another big surge in gold and oil with the usual suspects crying "the dollar is going to hell". This anti-dollar trade must die, and it is dying as it's now euro's turn to go to hell, before gold can advance very much further. I am not calling for any big...

    Marc Faber, Dollar Will Eventually Go to Value of Zero, Oct 26, 2009

    Indeed, at least regarding gold.. :) I think the anti-dollar & inflation trade must die before gold gets really going again. We need to get all the weak inflationistas and commodities bulls to fold. The "dollar is dead" crowd must be proven wrong. I am afraid this process will take the...

    How useful is Economics as a trader?

    Mainstream economics is useless because it is a lie, i.e. not a truthful and realistic theory about the real world. And so is finance theory. Find an economic theory that is true. That could be useful, also for trading.

    China to be short 24 million wives

    Stupid women. Don't they understand their country needs more girls in the future, not boys? Females will be more valuable in China, as their supply is artificially restricted.

    Pattaya - The Ultimate Trading Location

    Shh... quiet please. So far very few farangs here, let it be so! Especially glad to not find any Americans here. One problem though. It's impossible to get permanent residence without getting married. How did you manage it?

    Marc Faber, Dollar Will Eventually Go to Value of Zero, Oct 26, 2009

    Interesting. In Europe I've seen no ads about buying gold, just about selling. Also, nobody I know is heavily invested in gold, only a few have even minor positions. And I have talked about gold for many years and to everybody. Gold bug I am. Would be amazed if we get a bubble here in 18...

    Marc Faber, Dollar Will Eventually Go to Value of Zero, Oct 26, 2009

    Well that stupidity seems to be approaching fast.. :D I agree about the spike top, but believe it's still a few more years and thousands of $ away. In my view we're just about halfway through a 16+ year bull market. The price of gold has about quadrupled since the 2001 bottom, and it could...

    Marc Faber, Dollar Will Eventually Go to Value of Zero, Oct 26, 2009

    Ok. That must also mean the dollar to stop strengthening right here. What's your risk/reward? Since gold has been down $30+, you must be looking for a move back to the highs, at least? Not worried about this chart? Record-high spec longs, even after the worst crash (Dec 8)...

    Marc Faber, Dollar Will Eventually Go to Value of Zero, Oct 26, 2009

    RM, still bullish on gold? Also bearish on the dollar? And by implication, bullish on equities? I am thinking this correction is something bigger. The anti-dollar trade is over now. And gold was heavily bought by people wanting to be short the dollar. So it might take a while before gold...

    Pattaya - The Ultimate Trading Location

    I agree that Thailand is a wonderful country to live/stay in. Warm and sunny weather, good food, beautiful girls, and very good service everywhere. Everything is so cheap too, a Westerner can easily triple his living standard here. But above all, the most amazing thing are the people. Everyone...
