Gotcha...of course not, but no one said it did...We were discussing speculation vs. reality.

Not sure what your point is.

Unfortunately, falling inventories aren't why the market is climbing. Check out the march opec meeting, inventories have been climbing. Actually demand has been slightly down in the last few months. OPEC themselves were quoted as saying there was no supply shortage, that the rise in prices...

Pretty easy answer 0)Steady demand and RELIANCE 1)Lack of potential supply 3)Geo-Political factors in supply zones 4)Dollar ain't worth jack 5)SPECULATION #5 clearly takes the cake and will continue to tip the scales until our govt takes an aggressive stance on alternative energies...

Troll what are you talking about Apple Beats Expectations, but Outlook Disappoints http://www.cnbc.com/id/24278456 Investors take a bite out of Apple The iPod maker posts better-than-expected increase in revenue and profits on strong Mac sales but stock slips after-hours on...

If you are so bullish and believe so firmly in the market going up forever then why aren't you long? Why are you wasting time day trading if you so confidently know that "big money is made going long"?

Oh so your whole theory is based on 3 months of data? Are you kidding me? I hope you aren't that ignorant. Here is a link to a chart of the SPX for a little longer than 3 months. Please notice the dip in 2002/2003 during the last recession. If you can remember longer than 3 months ago...

HedgefundTrader2 what you don't seem to get is this isn't just a game about short sellers vs. the all mighty Fed. Sure the fed will prop the market up as much as it can and they can't do it forever. And short selling may cause some rapid plunges but the market isn't going to tank because of...

My advice to you is to wait until the fall to buy. Wait until we at least get closer to a bottom, wait until the supply is bigger...Historically when there is a housing slump; when we find a bottom we stay there for an extended period if time even after it stabilizes...There is no rush

Too many factors to answer this question. If we are talking about bubble zones like california I think the drop will be shocking, more than 30%. Prices have already come down a healthy amount. So far it seems like all the original predictions have been very short of reality. Look at the...

well said. I don't think we are going to see the commodities come down until we get into a deflationary period. That isn't going to happen until the govt allows this bubble to pop, and it is very possible we could continue this cycle for some time. When deflation occurs it will not be a happy...

all did i hurt your feelings? I am so sorry mr troll We won't technically know that we are in a recession until the end of this year. But that doesn't mean we aren't in one. All the data points to a recession. The job numbers are the most clear piece of substantial evidence. I haven't...

Interesting talking point. Maybe we don't need a fence or immigration enforcement, just a darn good recession.

it isn't just commodities the stock market is just as easily overblown. If anything the commodities market is just playing catch up to the stock market. There is a real difference though. I bet the author could easily go for a long period of time without using any services provided by...

The sad story on this is that while this legislation is being trumped up as a home owner bailout, unfortunately congress actually decided to bailout their buddies, the home builders, rather than the home owners. The fed govt is has way more resources to float on, but what is an interesting...

You think we destroyed the charts? It is all relative. Look at the charts during the last recession which was in fact a mild recession. Look at the bottoms during 2003. Look at all the noise leading up to it and please take note how long it took for the charts to bottom. This time...

It's not just news it is reality. The fed can't fight reality. For all your talk I would love to see you post your positions. Is your money really where your mouth is? Are you long on this market or do you just like talking smack on the internet?

this market is too volatile right now to call a bottom after only a couple days of cheer. And cheer from what, that lehman proved it could raise 4 billion before it has to write down another 10. I am sure I will be reading "the bear is back" posts after some actual fundamental data comes...

Apple is a great innovator, but I can't imagine the demand holding for gadgets like iphone and itouch and high end laptops during a recession. If times are bad people will be sacrificing their ipods and their monthly botox treatments.

i hear a lot of people talking like this and most of those people are stuck in long positions and refuse to admit reality. It is going to come whether you want to admit it or not.
