Don't break up your fight on account of me but over here in Europe the banks are in really bad shape. Not your problem I expect you Yanks are saying. But it will be. What has happened is that the govts are backing bank deposits 100%. That has given the politicians a strangle hold over all the...

here are a few points to consider 1. Get a day job and paper trade until you are consistently profitable 2.Keep it simple e.g. get to know 1 index like S&P 500 really well 3. Enjoy it. Mix in excercise and meeting people

Happy to see good sense overcame the anger and the bill was passed. Of course people should take responsibility for their actions. This could be built in to a NEW setup once the crisis is over. Another bad result of the "dog eat dog" mentality is that there are too few big banks left. This is...

Kermit the frog for President

I was walking in the cemetery this morning and saw a man hiding behind a gravestone. I said "Morning" and he replied "No, just having a sh1t."

When it's finally decided who was to blame May I suggest you lot do a bit more than a mild reprimand, a bit of hand wringing and some crocodile tears Strip the BASTARDS of their assets - you feeble minded crooks

Sign seen in Swiss Hotel "We take your bags and send them in all directions"

It pains me to see you guys teetering on the edge of disaster BUT. The banks can't really issue billions of new shares because hardly anybody wants to buy them. The underwriters certainly don't want to be lumbered with them. The rescue package may not be perfect but it's ALL the USA has got to...

First find your scapegoat and then XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Picking on the Jews is a bit passe but there's that bum Bin Laden hiding out somewhere. Probably his fault - the sod !!

I can just see Steven Spielberg with his blockbusting movie called " The country that embraced Sodom and Gomorrah" with George W. in a red suit with forked tail and a Moses look-alike calling down hail and brimstone on the greedy & the gullible. Oh boy should run for years as a...

How about this as a conspiracy theory ? Bush &co, get fed up being criticized and decide to take more and more power until they are like dictators. If Putin can do exactly that, then why not elsewhere. Step 1 is to scare the people so badly that they give you overall power to " sort out the...

I think you mean " is " ( on the plonk so soon ? )

Somebody should write a book/film entitled " How the West was lost " starring George W. Bush

The cow ate it

Buffet's buying into electric hybrid cars. Well that's a well aimed kick up the proverbial backside of the old dinosaur car-makers. “The news is positive as the investment is big,” Frederick Wong, analyst at BNP Paribas in Hong Kong said. And Mr Wong is usually wight

How about a shoot-out between traderzones ( anti-TA ) and ptolemi ( pro-TA ) Let's have both your forecasts everyday for a week on this thread starting this Monday 29th (before the market opens ). That should settle it me-thinks.

Surely it is NOT a net profit of $6,860 BUT a net LOSS of $6,860 !! I think it is fair to warn others. They look good and promise much but don't deliver as you can see from the attachment.

If I was one of the multi-millionaires that had ripped off the shareholders and companies that they worked for, then I would have most of my loot safely tucked away in off-shore accounts. Good old Swiss banks etc. trusty friends of the mafia, dictators and other baddies.

In the UK we used to have laws that required top executives to exercise their responsibilities with due care and attention. I think I'm right that it was called a fiduciary relationship with their clients and companies. In this NEW climate of super greed all that seems not to exist in the USA...
