    I'm 18, where should I start

    The mere fact you come to a message board to ask what stocks to invest in is a red flag for yourself. Keep your money in a savings account and figure how HOW you want to invest and WHAT to invest in. Do your homework.

    Which Caribbean Island to move to

    To anybody that moved to the Caribbean already: a) How boring is it really? Is there really 'nothing' to do or is that pure exaggeration? b) How are day to day living expenses compared to a major US city such as Chicago, Phoenix or Miami? I mean restaurants, insurance, the wife doing her...

    Again considering turning fulltime...

    Can you cover your living expenses (rent, food, mortgage, car, lease, gas, insurances, wife, kids, girlfriend(s), vacation etc.) out of trading 100k over the next 12-18 months? I would consider the worst case when you start going full time: Imagine you suffer a 6 month 30% draw down in...

    Bernanke: No Wage-Price spiral inflation

    Unions - unlike in Europe - are essentially destroyed and powerless in the US. The inflation hawks in Europe are scared shitless of a wage price spiral for a good reason and this would hurt medium term growth over the next couple years. I think longterm the low wage inflation should be a...

    MBIA to lose AAA

    a) Just because something has 4 letters doesn't mean its a component of the NQ (= Nasdaq 100 = AAPL, RIMM, GOOG, etc.). In fact, the Nasdaq 100 and Russell 2000 are not highly correlated at all. b) I use equal dollar amount position sizing. Hence the share amounts.

    MBIA to lose AAA

    Unlike you (who loaded up on puts hoping for a 87 type crash) I do trade in and out of positions all the time. I don't rely on the market going into any specific direction nor do I do better or worse in a bull or bear market. I am agnostic. Good luck praying for that black swan. You will need it.

    Who else thinks Einhorn is fishy?

    Spreading rumors ("DUDE GET OUT THEY'RE GOING BANKRUPT") is one thing. Simply saying one is short a certain stock/long their CDS because the company will likely have to raise more capital and thus dilute existing shareholders is perfectly OK with me.

    MBIA to lose AAA

    You're such a pathetic loser it is incredible. Go pile in short into the banks based on your brilliant analysis of todays "news". You do have an amazing edge and the entire Street will be shocked to see the "dramatic ripple effects" once they unravel. All this is months old news.

    MBIA to lose AAA

    Please explain how? How can it have "nasty ripple effects" when a $700m company like ABK gets blow out of the market while it was "insuring" $100s of bln worth of bonds? What's the surprise here? The market knew for months that this was coming and the "insurance" provided by ABK and the likes...

    MBIA to lose AAA

    These insurers will go out of business & disappear and nobody will care. Their collective market cap is sub $2 bln. Impact = close to zero.

    Anyone else long QID?

    One thing I learned in the markets is that whenever someone uses phrases like "I CAN GUARANTEE YOU" or "I SWEAR BY THE MOTHER OF GOD" when talking about market direction they probably are not trading any real money.

    ADP Employer Services Says the U.S. Added 40,000 Jobs in May

    The BLS/government jobs report ain't much better. It has a sampling error of +/- 100,000 jobs on each release, yet every 5k change is scrutinized.
