"The only reason why lectures about being change masters are part of the HR world is that things are being taken away. They call it change only when it sucks. The emphasis in all those stupid parachute books and those idiotic cheese books on the modern skill of change management is a clue that...

excellent book. Written by an academic who understands the limitations of academic knowlege in application to trading. Routinely pisses off the "real" academics at major institutions by telling them they are full of crap. The main thrust of the book is that some superstars in many walks of...

buy on the water or with a waterfront view or consider renting. home prices in general are inflated right now and lots of new homes are being built at breakneck pace. Waterfront will always be valuable however, since no new waterfront is being created due to environmental laws.

its a classic penny stock move. The company needs to issue equity to stay in business, so it has to get hyped to round up the needed buyers. The buyers don't understand the concept of dilution and get left holding the bag.

People with masters degrees and JD's are unable to find work right now. Unemployment numbers are being grossly undereported because people simply drop off the rolls after a certain period of time. Large companies are still laying off. When it comes to unemployment, why do we kick people when...

how do you define the word "crash" ?

the answer is........ your assumption that they pay people to trade is totally false.

hehe......yeah, its a charity.....LOL

"H1b law requires that the visa applicant be working in a field whee there is a shortage, and the firm must demonstrate that applicants cannot be found at the prevailing wage." you are technically correct, but H1-B's are being handed out to computer staff by the zillions when there is double...

you must be pretty damn stupid.

H1-B VISAS are being handed out like cotton candy at a football game, and there is no rhyme or reason to it except that people are making money from it. When unemployment was non-existant nobody cared, including myself, but during hard times it is crazy. There is double digit unemployment among...

I've listened to his show and I consider myself to be fairly conservative, downright "right wing" on certain issues. BUT.....I can't listen to this guy. He gives me high blood pressure. He is definitely a racist ( even though i agree with his stance on affirmative action ). If he gets on tv it...

Guess? GES .......world wide brand name, same store sales stabilizing , trading below book value and rising today along with the apparel group. Looks like it has a new trading range from 3.50 to 5.50 and its at the bottom and rising. Its kind of thin so not for scalpers but more for position...

true, vix only makes sense relative to recent history. But a rising VIX means fear is starting to get out of hand.

I think it will do exactly what it did during the last gulf war. It dropped in anticipation of the war and after the war started it had a great rally. The war protestors are praying for a crash and they will be paying through the nose.

you are correct about this wasted, its chinese water torture. The spring is being pressed down relentlessly, but not forever.

as far as trading goes, I am treating the war like an earnings report that is expected to be bad. The market is dropping in anticipation of the bad news, but when the news comes out it won't be as bad as people think, and there will be a rally.

there have also been reports that the arabs have been hoarding gold and dumping dollars and american stocks for several years. The attack on NY was deliberately aimed at the stock and commodity markets, so it is naive to think that nobody made any money from it. As far as the RAND...

The doom and gloom is pervasive and constant, and the bears are screaming for a crash that isn't going to happen unless we get another terrorist attack. We are still in a bear market of course, but one with lots of tradeable rallies. The anti war people are going to really scream after the...

exactly right.
