    10 to 20% per month (40% with margin)

    One of the book that I like was written by Guy Cohen, he used some of the very simple and fundamental methods around. Enter and exit a trade is a learned skill; you have to trade for real to be able to have the feel for the market, and use fundamental analysis to learn about the stock.

    Stop gloating over declining home prices - it hurts

    You can't print money to fix a long term problem; it will only depreciate the value of a dollar. In the previous recession, the fed cut interest rates to help boost the housing market, but then it's going to be like the S&L problem in the 80's, the housing market crashed big time after ward...
