    How Will America Get Economy Going Again?... this, maybe

    A flattening of the income pyramid can actually work in many ways. The post 2001 recovery of Argentina was in part due to this redistribution that enabled lower and middle class to earn as much or sometimes more. Truck drivers -unionized- and line workers at Ford -also unionized- made more money...

    Question about futures.

    This I do not understand. Options do not necessarily move in tandem with their underlying. There is something called implied volatility that can implode or explode. I have only traded options successfully for gains of 100% on trending stocks up or down when they made a move beyond their trends...

    Hendry Says Avoid U.S. Stocks During "Depression;" Banks Won't Return for "25 Years&q

    Will the low from Friday 10/10 hold?

    The first image is from Nov. 1929. The second one from last week. If history is to be repeated, then the lows will not hold. The Dow made yet another low three days later (another 19%) and that was the low for 1929. Extrapolating -just for fun- we may see 765 for the SP this Wednesday and the...

    Marketsurfer's bold gold proclamation

    This prediction makes no sense. Gold down and bonds not rallying takes us one step closer to a depression scenario. Where are the earnings going to come from by 4/09 to have the DJIA at record highs?

    The Last Month of Trading and Why to Forget It

    Well... this maybe an idiotic comment but there is one chart you may want to pay attention to. And that is Dow Nov. 1929. If history repeats itself you would know that Monday will gap up but close a down day and that Tue, Wed and Th. will be such a crash that you will want to forget you were...

    Ford about to go bankrupt...soon to trade in the 1s and then on the pinks

    Don't forget K. Kerkorian 6.5% In regards to the stock trading at these levels, he may run it up to get some of his money back, BK aside. He was just asked to put more collateral for the credit line being used to buy F shares, as the original collateral (MGM shares) lost value.

    I've Wondered Why Bonds Defied Inflation Logic... now we know

    I found this through a search. It is the recorded history of the SP500 earnings since 1960 published by NYU. Looking at the numbers there were only 11 ocassions when earnings dropped from prior year in the last 47 years. Seven in single digits. The worst recorded decline peaked at 17% in 1975...

    US could be due financial and economic Armageddon

    Hyperinflation with disorder, chaos and martial law. Reflation will finally work... only too well. Not next month, not next quarter. But eventually. I have seen and lived through one hyperinflation at least once in my lifetime (and a second close call). After collecting my paycheck I had to...

    The Coming Rally Will Be Monumental

    And into Gold, which is more bearish for the system in general. No flight to quality, as there is no more quality anywhere.

    Scary market

    Well... for what is worth, we still do not have a new President in place, with a new economic plan that may indicate new leadership in stocks. Does anyone here think that we will not have a market rally until a few weeks after the election, even if credit markets get fixed? Looks like markets...

    Great Depression Chart

    Great chart, thank you! Of course, guys like B.Baruch were selling their mother while telling the public the opposite. But most on that list probably really believed what they were saying. In fact, economic indicators didn't start to seriously deteriorate until April 1930 when it was obvious...

    Isn't it this too risky in a confirmed bear market, even if we are at a temp bottom?
