    Questions for Rearden Metal

    Military service is the largest welfare system a "free market" government can shove down its citizen's throats. I've served in the U.S. Air Force and Coast Guard, and am poorer for it. What a sad state of affairs when a government needs to boost these killing services by selling them to a...

    Warren "Buffed it" buffet !

    Wow you get to be Buffett now. You can buy common GS now in the open market at 65 and get the same deal he got through perpetual preferred. This is a wonderful window into how markets work, and if you'd stop Buffett bashing you could learn something. Imagine the bashing that would have...

    Read your history. That's the significance. Those ratios are sticky, but obviously not inviolate.

    BAC,C...banks tanking

    How about the "Rape of America" I couldn't stand in line to do my banking with these scum sucking bottom feeding nepotistic inbred sister fucking war mongers a few years ago without them sending a chick through the line asking if I "owned my own home." You know why I had to stand in line...

    Is Tradelog or Gainskeeper necessary?

    And yes, you are responsible for verifying the information provided by your broker. IB has an absolutely awful record for inaccurate 1099's. They even forgot to include commissions once about 5 years ago for all traders. Guess how many audits that triggered? I'm a satisfied IB customer...

    Is Tradelog or Gainskeeper necessary?

    Tradelog has worked well for me in the past, and is priced well. Is it necessary? I don't know....are you hiding something? Can you settle with the IRS for pennies on the dollar if they challenge your cost basis? Do you have a banker at UBS who can hide your asets offshore? (oh, never mind...

    Bailout guarantees Goldman CEO 70M salary

    Can I assume you would include a clause to prevent repricing of options?

    Bailout guarantees Goldman CEO 70M salary

    Funny how rare that comment is, but how effective the results would be. That solution only works collectively, and we're a selfish society. The Man knows this, and plays us against ourselves. Why is it that the best minds in government couldn't extract a better deal from this situation...

    Echo Trade insight wanted

    Sure you'll get many pm's on this. Last I heard it was just a desk fee of $400/month, with $100 waived for each 100,000 shares of volume. Rates of course vary with volume, but don't pay over .4c Some on these boards run groups within Echo and could probably get you a better rate. Do a...

    Forced liquidation in silver

    Ebay can be a fantastic window into obscure and small markets. It's an auction market in a world that still largely believes in fixed pricing. Dealers who have been in this business for 30 years are another source of information. "They" haven't seen the likes of this since 1981 (no, not...

    Forced liquidation in silver

    It appears debt destruction is overwhelming the desire for safety. I too was surprised by the move down in silver. Metals are in quite a tug-of-war right now. Only decent place for any physical silver right now is Kitco's 1000 oz bar. Perhaps they are getting these from selling at the ETF...

    My longshot is

    You guys brought this stock up before. I noticed an Amex listing coming up, and some big buys from Praetorian continuing, with decent growth. Looks like its still a winner from here and could go much higher. With the chart basing so long a breakout over 4 could get it really cooking.

    WTG Praetorian!

    Praetorian just keeps buying that TBLC. I like the stock, and with smart guys buying that's probably my confirmation that it's bound to go much farther.

    buying gold here?

    Wait for people here to call the metals move over. Back in early '04 when gold went down to the 370 area some ET's were howling that gold was done, that silver was cooked, but that was the bottom. It'll take a big drop this time, but folks will get spooked. Mid-400's should do it as Bernanke...

    worlds greatest investor does not use fancy tools

    Jeez, 2 prices already. 1 of the prices is real. The other is unreal. Buy the unreal one, when its unreal. That don't take much tech. What it takes is slow money, that's a rare commodity.

    http://www.stocktrading.com/images/portnew2.jpg What is that, a shriner's convention gone wrong? Is that her purse, or the sack of affirmative action paperwork she keeps for the next trading firm/airline job rejection? Where is the emotional commitment that comes with an expression of...

    Gold - the POLL

    This quote from several years ago shows that the move in metals wasn't unanticipated by some here. I would bet that guy is still long gold, since nothing has changed to cause the current trend to reverse.

    Bloomberg

    OOOhhhhh 1.75K, that's as mystical as their mayoral candidate. Guess its also about 0.00175M/mos, which is pretty huge money, and shouldn't be approached by those without the "Know." Bloomberg doesn't have to be "turn-key" to answer your question, and can run on your own platform. If you...
