You may think Osama and Co.'s views a comparable to Mr. Connolly's. I don't. Time will tell as to who is right.

Good call here. Bernard Connolly (author of the book I mentioned earlier in this thread) has some comments that support this view. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/money/main.jhtml?xml=/money/2008/08/15/cneuro115.xml&CMP=ILC-mostviewedbox

It's been almost a year to the day since Ben cut the discount rate. I'm starting to think we may be on our way to test 11.0 where the last good leg up started.

http://www.tulving.com/goldbull.html#silver There is some physical buying during this selloff. Tulving is SOLD OUT of most of their silver inventory.

There is one other reason. This is an election year and Bush & co. must appear to be doing something constructive. If there is a myth at work, it is that oil shale will ever generate a significant output of usable oil. http://srb.stanford.edu/nur/GP200A%20Papers/elliot_grunewald_paper.pdf

hmmm. Just got the last one to take so maybe one at a time is all I can do.

SusanaDT Thanks for generating a great thread. I've been following with great interest and have gotten some good ideas from you and others here. I'd like to submit a couple of charts that are kind of in the gray area since volume is not exactly allowed here but there was a disclaimer for...

Things seem to be about wrapped up now. It appears that being a delegate in the GOP convention here in Nevada is all about rubber stamping a party agenda. Isn't that how they did it in the Kremlin?

They use Acronis in their systems. I'm just suggesting that they might know the answers to your questions.

This is probably a long shot but I bought my box from these people and when I had a problem mirroring my second hard drive their tech support got me squared away. I'm assuming you aren't already a customer but you might give them a call anyway. You are practically neighbors, maybe they would...

quote from Trvlwanderer My immediate reaction too. lol

http://www.truthandpolitics.org/top-rates.php#fn-7 The link is to a table of marginal income tax rates in the US since the Fed came into being. In 1962 the top rate was effectively 87%. I have a suspicion that this influenced his decision. If his income at that time qualified him for this...

ditto that. My experience over the last 2 years is exactly the same as well.

Bullshit.

yep, but it's a crapshoot. no telling where the market will be by the time NT catches up.

Ditto that type of action here. Trading YM this morning. I had a couple of market orders that took minutes to fill. The desk was prompt to answer but they are helpless if the exchange and Zenfire aren't meshing. One thing that is apparent, the order system still works even if it doesn't show...

Great post mgookin. For more along the same line here is a link to an article about how the BLS massages the numbers. http://mises.org/story/1873

Methinks you have the cart before the horse. My Webster's defines inflation as "a persistent substantial rise in the general level of prices related to an increase in the volume of money and resulting in the loss of value of currency (as opposed to deflation)". Rising prices do not cause...

On point 7, if you don't close out your existing account and do the transfer yourself you may have a wait of a few days. I did a transfer to Mirus a couple of years ago and it took a phone call from my new broker to the old one to expedite the process.( and they didn't HAVE to comply)...

Glad the two of you liked it. Anyone who believes the markets are "free" should read it. This is the part that bothers me. It has come to the point that mark to market operations are suspended. My thinking is that this is where the PPT action will ultimately blow up. Once the major players...
