Hello Paperboy: I am not current in following the grains this year but in NW Iowa and SW Minn they just finished a huge harvest. There are big piles of corn dumped in open areas in many places. One local paper had a picture of 425,000 bu of corn in just one pile. 200 bu per acre was reported...

To Trader5287 Thanks for posting that cbyron@nypost news clip.. What a contrast I've seen in my life time. I clearly remember in the early 1950's hearing adults talk about how powerful GM was. I heard comments that indicated that GM was the one of the most powerful companies in the...

Hello Surfer: Nice post. You ended with: "..any thoughts?" OK.. I'll suggest that your thoughts would be best used after more than enough time is spent on working with defence first.. I'll base that on having made my share of mistakes over the last 39 years of investing.. and watching...

Hello Simon: The question back to you is: Who is doing the trading? The ability of that person is the key to your answer. If it was someone who has a PROVEN track record of at least 10% or higher with low drawdown, I'd say yes.. If the person your thinking about using (yourself?) has...

To Daal In the first post it reads that he took his gold out of the safe-box. It does not say he got rid if it. At least that's what the first post says... You also have to remember that it was very hard to sell (or buy) anything unless you were on the floor. Personal computers were not...

Hello hcour ( Harold ) Years ago I did that but never again with the hope that it will work smoothly. Motherboards need lots of drivers installed from the CD disk that comes with the board.. That fact alone means it will not be a smooth change since those drivers are missing at first...

Mark Hulbert Ranking Service rates VL fairly high for LT investing. Note I wrote investing and not trading. If you are more than willing to buy and hold for LONG periods of time then it might help. It's a fundamental approach. No TA. This was my view of VL as of "many" years ago when I looked...

Thanks to all the informative posts so far... The reality still is that Bush has the spotlight position and another 3 years to muck things up. Tough item to get past. I sure would vote(and pay some tax $) to start a "New city." There have been many homes flooded upstream on the...

Nobody said much about the huge retirement pay the pilots get? That is a real waste of $. I was friends with several NWA pilots over the years and the pay they get for their work/ risk is too much for this day and age of computer controlled systems. Their high pay is a carry over from the...
