    Would hyper inflation kill stocks?

    I'd think first there would be a huge crash as everybody rushes to get out, but once the very bottom stabilises from that level stocks would finally rise with inflation. Who sells first profits most. More real money to buy real things while they're still affordable. Later it's all the same...

    What's the best UNIX / Linux for laptop?

    Ubuntu is more mature and stable than OpenSolaris, which is still being aggressively developed. With this is mind make sure that you do NOT download OpenSolaris 200805 but the current 200811 release candidate. Upgrading from 200805 is somewhat painful as you need to do things by hand in the...

    the scary thing is

    You most probably mean that gold coins are sold out. Try taking delivery of a 12.5 kg bar, HSBC in London or UBS in Switzerland will be more than happy to serve you without any shortage.

    I was too scared to pull the trigger/trade today.

    Don't feel bad, I had the same thing. Was completely paralyzed on thurs and fri. Just couldn't. Still remembered the days of the great sell-off when it just pounded and pounded down more and more. Every turn, small bottom, turned out to be a fake, leaving behind a trail of red blood. And now...

    Buffett vs message board amateurs - the 5 year challenge

    He got his buys, wouldn't it be nice to be able to talk them into an immediate uptrend. Perhaps he needed to buy early, before anyone else managed to get foot in where he wanted to. So, he got greedy.

    Warren Buffet will go broke

    Wouldn't it be nice if you realized that you bought too early too high, you could still induce others to buy by just saying that you did. And they'd proper your ill timed positions into positive territory. Maybe he got too greedy and that's why he's now fearful, just like the rest of us.

    Dow to hit 7000, Roubini says

    But what if it dives straight through 7000...and 7000 will become the new resistance top. In 2002 the base economy was very strong besides the dotcom collapse, now it's slowly disintegrating. Banks are in shambles, people spent their principal treating their homes as atms. People are...

    Treat CDS for what it is: FRAUD

    Shouldn't the government be prosecuting and confiscating the ill-gotten wealth of all CDS fraudsters? If AIG, or other CDS seller, sells CDS for more liabilities than they have assets, isn't this outright fraud? They're saying we're good for this risk, but they're not. They say they can pay...

    Crisis problem focus: US national debt - trigger was credit bubble

    China or US wouldn't gain anything from a mutual war. Now China and Russia, that is something else. Overcrowded China with depleteing resources, almost totally empty resource rich Siberia. Gainers would include China, US and just about any neighbor of Russia, all of whom have a very...

    Richard Quest from CNN ?!

    I like him, he was a practical nobody at BBC, didn't have room to grow. At CNN he has become a true asset. Reminds me of Rosemary Church whom they poached from Aussie news, I like how she has grown on CNN, she's not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed but a lovely gal overall.

    People will liquidate bank accounts.

    Most terrible thing when such people have power to change market rules. We're soon going to be worse off after their 'help'. Exactly just like 1929-1932.
