    Attention Non-US Residents: Teach Us The Error of Our Ways

    The point I was trying to make is that the US military defeated both Germany and Japan from dictators..... Without that do you really think any of those companies would have grown into world wide respectable enterprises.... If Russia takes Germany we know what would have happened...

    So how do all the "pro's" feel about not watching CNBC?

    I understand that English is not your first language son, but I did not say I was shorting oil..... Pickens went upside down in the 80's.....he did not say he was short...only that oil would probably go down to 80-85/bbl... It was not that long ago oil was single digit....I remember oil at...

    So how do all the "pro's" feel about not watching CNBC?

    I took the reaction to the rumour as a "preview" of what might happen when the situation is settled. Bond issue resolved....couple more unknown's resolved and BOOM.....DOW could be up 1000 points in 5 days.... There is a mountain of cash waiting to go bullish..... The tech bubble...

    Advice from you experienced traders

    I think engineers and other like minded people have trouble with "trading" as they see it as a "problem" that can be solved, if they can only find the answer or solution.... Pure trading has a lot more "art" to it...emotional aspects...intuitivenss...etc etc... Longer term investing or...

    So how do all the "pro's" feel about not watching CNBC?

    I saw Art Cashion make the point that traders didn't want to go into the weekend short....squaring up their posistions today.. Now I know most of the smart guys on ET know more than Art...he has been down there for 40 years... But, hey, what does he know compared to the "smart" traders...

    Housing doom and gloom - ENOUGH already !!

    Until the last 5-7 years a buyer always had to put cash down of 5%, 15% had PMI insurance, which was a 80% loan to value.. This was on a 3BR/2BA single family free standing house on a lot of 50' x 100'. Loan was fixed rate for 30 years.... There were millions of homes sold under these...

    Housing doom and gloom - ENOUGH already !!

    A house, assuming it is habitable, ALWAYS has a value..... Enron, Worldcom, etc etc have NO value.... Anyone who compares the two simply does not understand.... A guy buys a house for $100,000 in 1990....goes up in value to $500,000 by 2007.....he sells in early 2008 and only gets...

    Every state university in the US has more patents issued than all of the Middle East, except Isreal.... Islam has nothing but oil and suicide bombers... And, soon the oil will run out..... Then they can just bomb each other..... What a sad sick future for Islam...... SteveD

    Al Gore - Democratic Party candidate in 2008.

    Al Gore would be booed off of the stage if he tried to come in to the race at this time...... As someone said, the process is pretty structured now, so no room for a "smoke filled room" candidate... Ever notice what the "Independent" candidates have in common...Ross Perot, Pat Buchanan...
