no you joker. that's a price shock. we're all capable of understanding supply and demand, surely? the observeation in question is an increase in general prices (a basket of goods) over time - not just a seasonal weather et al. is that clear?

what utter nonsense. clearly you lack a good economics/history education. And for you to divert linguistics into other things - while on the debate in the context of a trading forum where there is a crystal black/white debate on change prices or money supply - just shows how twisted and...

one thing I've noticed - is the number of people here that discuss rising prices as inflation - i.e. definition of inflation = "average increase in prices" - basically what they've been fed in recent econ 101. if you look into a old economics book - inflation is nothing but the supply of...

the difference between 96 and now is there are trillions of QE driving this market. Do you this disagree? did central banks around the world pump this much QE in 96? And what will happen if it stops?

I'm not sure if this is genuine or another sarcastic msg. Eitherway, I now think the market will correct 87 crash-style as oppose to a gradual down-trend switch. I think if you're at all going to make money being short here is to be prepared to hold a significant loss. I think the only way out...

I think the market has bluffed hard enough to scare anyone wanting to short it. I been wrong constantly calling for a good time to short this market and been 100% wrong every time. I'd be surprised any shorts left who have the appetite to be short in a big way.

bb, you seem confused. going back to my original point, if all cavement are buying on the assumption that SP will hit 1700, will it actually get there? knowing that everyone is betting on the same thing (Wide Tailz suggest that even the caveman knows he should be long, so therefore everyone...

again I'm not talking P/Es, I'm talking rate of growth and possible pull backs in spx given that we've alerady had a 20% since november. It's crazy that if you look at the consistant buy of the dips, correlation to other asset classes, volatility and everything in full picture, then it's one of...

what on earth u on about? I was reffering to Wide Tailz, that suggested Ben is taking the other side of every ES trade as all cavemen go long on it. what i said is, i don't remember Ben saying they are buying stocks outright. yes they have forced risk takers into stocks (for that extra...

from my experience on this site, if you post a thread like i have you're bound to get a response like this.. where the response focuses on little words, breaks sentences down and trys to make me look like an idiot. I'm not talking about set-ups, I think we all have our own ways of trading be...

shorting this market and calling a top are different things. i don't think anyone can call a top, it's just too random. what I'm saying, is, there comes good times to short a market, even in a strong rally. my question was is todays level a good time to short? i.e. the next x points are to...

you need to take it into context - we're at the longest rally in recent times.. it's made record highs and now it looks it seems toppy. the question is, is it time to go long or short? what's weird is, when you ask questions here, people give you paragraphs of ideas but never directly answer...

I think there is too much emphasis put on the fed and bernank. you think they really control the market? so why didn't they try harder or quicker when the crash happenend? the truth is their policy does influence the market but doesn't fully drive it. everyone is talking about buying dips...

you make it sound like a piece of cake to trade... yes market inflates over time but we're not talking evolution of markets over decades, and neither what short selling or put limits there are in place in a crash scenario... you said you rather be flat - but didn't say if you're long or...

completely agree - there is lot of bullshit in the media that NOW is the time to buy - given the 20% up from november and we're NOW in a rally! - joke or what? if anything, regardless of strategy, such a consistent move upward is rare - yes possible - but not greatly likely. i'ts more likely...

so are you saying you are long? or telling a good story? yes of course it wouldn't be nice if you're short and sp flys through 1700 but is it likely? yes it could be but is it so much that you're buying it? or are you sitting back given me a theory? there always comes a time when you...

but honestly, is this what you're doing? I know lot of people who hold this view- but they're not buying shit.

this market appears so distorted to me.. everything i look at no longer holds value or means anything.. from correlation to news, charts etc.. is anyone here making money in this market?

this market is just crazy... is it time to just be long and stay long ? till when?

surely we'll have a down day next week?
