    I am seriously thinking of shorting oil long term

    I caught a nice downdraft on oil on Wednesday, but would not be comfortable shorting oil long term until a definite top is set - why stand in front of a run away train? I'm not superman. I'm with the guy who stated catch the meat in the middle. MY CONSPIRACY THEORY - These banks and broker...

    Goldman SCUMsacs Pushing up the Price of Oil

    I'm with Aelion - Its a well known fact that JP Morgan could send the market up or down simply by walking on the floor and smiling or frowning at the height of his power. Goldman rules the street - they own oil, they want oil up, they talk it up. Pretty transparent. "Oil will hit...

    Goldman: Oil $150-200 in 24 months

    Goldman pulled the same shit with gold when it hit $1050 they proffered a "Gold is going to $2000" statement. Selling their holdings to the lemmings that bought their line. What happened to gold immediately following????

    total implosion of the u.s. real estate market

    Feds are engineering rampant inflation for this very reason. Inflate everything so the dollar value of the home stays up - and the banks with foreclosed homes can recoup their losses. The real value of the home has always been the same. People who bought at the high will be bailed out...

    Do you want to hear something histerical about real estate.

    My house, though off its highs, is still worth 2x what I paid for it in 2000. Too bad the dollars i paid for it with in y2k are worth 50% of what they were. Guess I'm break even.

    Boone Pickens - contra indicator?

    First says short oil to 80 and oil surges to 115, now says oil to 125... Think it's topped? Fed funds look like they are pricing in NO further rate cuts. Big component of the rise is weak dollar - I just don't see how it gets much weaker.

    Will walking away turn into an epidemic?

    At the height of the insanity people in my town were agreeing to buy houses for 15 - 20% more $$$ than the asking price, getting the homes appraised at the higher agreed amount. The seller was then giving a credit back to the buyer who in turn would use the $$$ as the down payment on the home...

    Goldilocks week about to end - S&P to drop 15% so say GS.

    Goldman must be caught short big time. They said gold to $2000 when it spiked over $1000 and sold off all their positions to the lemmings, it then plummeted to $850. Goldman ALWAYS serves their own best interest. I think they are caught short the finny's in a bad way - especially LEH...

    Trader P/L 2008

    $710 - took a small overnite short on gold miner just after the bell when IMF announced releasing 403 tons of gold onto the market for sale. I think tomorrow is "turnaround Tuesday" - we should see miners, Ags, and steels selloff.

    The market is smoking crack

    Today seemed like "get shorty" from the get go. LEH raises $$$ - normally converts viewed as negative, but in this case the raised money staves off possibility of BK that rumor mongers were feeding. The price had to go up as shorts covered since now no BK. So a MASSIVELY short finny sector...

    Time for you gold geeks to feel the love

    Hmmm - specter of inflation killing the dollar as Gold & Oil skyrocket - Fed cuts 3/4 and then changes to higher margin requirements on gold to create a sell off and make inflation look like its no problem. LOL - It's good to be king. I have no position just think the manipulation is...

    Daytraders - Daily profit goals or trade at will?

    Recently got back into trading and wondering if most have certain profit goals they wish to achieve and stop for the day once met, or if most simply continue to trade at will whenever the setups present themselves? I'm seeking @ 1% a day, this volatile market provides plenty of opportunities...

    My way of fighting the fed, I cannot sit still anymore

    I actually emailed the Federal Reserve today before I saw this post. Everyone should let them know what we think. Killing the dollar might save the banks but it's going to kill us - the consumer.
