    What makes a recession? What's the biggest signal indicating the start of one?

    We have been conditioned to think that a "recession" means the end of the world. A "recession" is just two quarters of reduced economic activity. It is easier to envision if you convert economic activity to imply income. Then you are saying that a "recession" is six months of reduced income...

    America's Left in the Grip of Insanity

    I read this article about M.O. talking about white flight. My first thought is why do African Americans want to live in the same community as "Whites". Why is it so compelling for African Americans to dwell with "Whites". You would think if being African American was so great they would want...

    Who Made A Million Dollars Today

    I only trade GS options. I always take profits out of account so I have less than $25,000 at any one time. At most a week, a lot of ins and outs. I have made 40X in a day. FYI - I did not make a million dollars today. I was not in position to do such.

    Who Made A Million Dollars Today

    Not sure what everyone is doing but there have been about 200 opportunities this year to easily make, for in the know players, 6 or 7 figures in a day. Several people on this board should have made a million today. I can appreciate this is not something you broadcast but... I have done it...

    question about pattern day trader rule for OPTIONS

    Unless you are making very small trades your plan is not going to work. You have to realize what trading a cash account means. Whenever you close a cash option position the money does not appear in your account immediately like it does with a margin account. For options the rule is T + 1...

    Great speech bY Trump at UN.

    Excellent post. However, conservatives have lost the will to fight. Conservatism is a masculine endeavor and requires vim and vigor to protect. Just a few factors to consider - War - Civil War, WWI,WWII,Korea,Vietnam,Middle East, Afgan - statistically significant reduction in prime...

    Confessions of a Reformed Crypto Doubter

    Best Analytic Phrase I Have Encountered in a Long Time

    It is probably just me but I found the quote below amusing. “I think the message is that a path to profitably that does not require magical thinking matters,” said Lise Buyer, founder of Class V Group, a consulting firm which advises company management on the process of going public. The...

    Give up my guns?

    We have approximately 327,000,000 people in the US. Perhaps there are 5000 gun deaths. Are we going to change all kinds of this for .00001529 of the population. Again - .00001529 of the population 5000/327,000,000 - .00001529 Perhaps a few of the gun deaths figures are off. You do the...

    Looking like Warren will be the nominee, what do you think?

    One of the best Warren U tubes I have seen. Elizabeth Warren just does not have the balls. Perhaps she should just say if it is nuclear attack she will let someone else decide. If she had to decide she would probably start crying. Women do that a lot.

    Looking like Warren will be the nominee, what do you think?

    If Elizabeth Warren is ever the D candidate we are all in trouble. If she ever heard we were under nuclear attack she would start crying of completely freeze up.

    Great speech bY Trump at UN.

    President Trump's speech to the UN was great. Never heard better. Say what you want about President Trump - egomaniac, bullying, abrasive - he is a great public speaker. He also is very insightful with respect to current issues. Is China a problem? No one could say otherwise. “For years...

    DNA to RNA to Protein

    This is a nice You Tube video except for the very last part. However, it does not come close to capturing the activity and speed of DNA replication in the body of any organism. The example is showing 1 chromosome in a cell. In the human cell there are 23 chromosomal pairs. They say real time...
