As a self-employed sole proprietor, my Healthcare premiums have quadrupled over the last decade, and have gone up 50 %, over the last 2 years alone. Further, when I visit the doctor I have deductibles and co-payments to deal with, on top of my monthly premiums. When I see the doctor, I spend...

You've got to remember that the market has been rising consistently on lower than average volume. Banning shorts would just diminish liquidity to a further extent, until the market would basically crawl to a halt. I don't even think this admin is that stupid, but who knows what they are...

Er, Bob, as usual, hyped-up Bullshit. This guy is always on the wrong-side of a call. And he is anything but the "liberal media" - he is a right-wing, pro-capitalist, self-admitted Bush lover.

Add this to the re-emerging credit bubble, and we are in for some serious problems. Boy, am I glad that I can now safely park my hard-earned cash in this burgeoning stock market :D

They certainly aren't helping, I agree, but the last decade was the lost decade, and we can squarely pin that on the Bush and Cheney disasters.

To me, this irrational exuberance upward, will just increase the magnitude of the downward spiral, when that gets triggered. Who knows when that will be though. QE, a major economic event, a major political event.....it's anyone's guess. Anyone who jumps in at this point with both feet, is...

The 2-party system will be coming to a screeching halt before 2012, mark my words. These Dems and Reps are all but done, and both have lost favor with the American People. The Republicans are much worse off than the Dems though - at least the Dems have "liberals" and "moderate Dems". The...

Look at the create dates of most of the posters on this forum. Of those still active, probably 95 % of them are SINCE the Credit debacle of over a year ago. Most others got wiped (or quit) during this tumultuous period.

V3.6, like it many predecessors, still suffers from memory leak problems, when multiple tabs are open. In many cases, this brings a machine down to its knees, and forces a Firefox reboot. Lo and behold, I have found a free, viable remedy for this problem, until the Firefox developers get...

We went positive on NYSE Bullish % Index about a week ago, to boot. Looks like we are still climbing from here, despite all of the ominous signs out there. To me, this just means that we are going to fall harder, when the reversal comes.

Not true. This was the only "political" thing to do. The right thing would have been to let things crash & burn, which would have caused Merrill, Citi, AIG, MorganStanley, etc. to go under. The markets would have seen DOW 3000 too, and unemployment would have been double, what's currently...

I'd be interested.

A new wave of foreclosures will hit the nation between Q1 and Q2 this year, as many ARM's get reset. This will undoubtedly have a negative effect on housing prices nationwide. Keep this mind, as you look to purchase.

I think the real question is, "why have stocks been up for so long ?"

Funny. I just revisited this thread, because I had interest in it, back in the day. Not one of the original posters, including the OP, still belong to ET. It seems that most got taken out at some time in 2007-2008, based on the date of their last post. I think it might tell you something...

No comments on this ?

No question the PPT exists. I'm willing to bet that actual secretive PPT buying commenced at the time the market hit rock bottom, and at the same time that eliminating short-selling was bandied about. This covert op was a lot easier and a lot more palatable (in their eyes), than altering the...

But seriously, how do you really feel about all this ?
