When I thought about all of this it made me laugh and it made sense because America is still such a young country in perspective to the rest of the world. If put into several perspectives, and relative to our 'neighbors and friends around the globe', that 'youthful quality' of our nation...

HAppy to oblide you cuz, on your quest to crank up the pages, and, thanx for the forum initiation, it was boiund to happen. as for me, I think she kinda reminds me of Tammy Faye Baker in some weird way... also, as an Obama supporter, I am delighted to McCain take what I consider a major...

FDIC wants to tap the Treasury for funds, ie, they do not have enough to cover the banks now 'waiting in the wings' to be liquidated, ie, the banks they wanna liquidate right now are technically in default, but the FDIC can't close 'em, cuz they can't cover the losses!, so they are just...

Bill Gross seems to be feeling the pressure also, he is calling for help on tv...between his LEH and FNM positions, (which are in the bond categories), I think he is also about to suffer amputation without anesthesia, a potentially costly, (and humiliating) experience. It appears he fully...

with the escalating brinkmanship currently underway, the likelihood of oil trading up is increasing. this news is currently being 'under-reported', as far as 'business news' is concerned. I expect this dynamic (under-reporting) will change complexion, with attendant response(s) from the...

the reaction and news not surprising, directly on the heels of a well-timed, (and well-trumpeted) GS super-'duper' oil going to the moon call.

the russel was the first and strongest index to turn up outta the low, and even prior to the low it held better relative strength. today, it is notably relatively weaker, to the other indexes...the leaders are leading, the troops are resisting following. this is additionally notable in the...

It should be fairly easy, and natural for them to make the transition. They can just set up their own shop, and do what they have always done...take a long position, and then make an 'upgrade', or, take a short position, and make a 'downgrade'. 'Why, isn't that 'adding value'?

you may consider trying this technique...place a short/locate on the stock, at a limit price well above your intended sale, on a gtc bais, this gets it located, and effectively 'on hold' for you, then when you wanna sell it, adjust your price-point. In other words, plan ahead.

(posted 8-9-08) Why Didnt Russia-georgia Battles Have Any Market Impact Today? It did!

Well thats fine, and dandy, as far as it goes, and its accurate enough. However, whats the matter with spreading the access to virtually free money to include others than Wall St banks. Especially seeing that most of the ills are directly a result of their practices. If evaluated on a...

Of course the FED will bail these guys out, once again. If you could borrow cheaply, (virtually free), to cover your ass of your mistakes, and buy some time as you tried to figure out how else you can dupe a new crop of investors tp pay for the last round of shenanigans, would you do so...

Can you talk about the trading hours for the mini Rut 2000 on ICE? It is my understanding that the overnight hours are being curtailed. Since it is an electronic traded product, why not align the trading hours uniformly with the rest of the index futures products, for continuity, and...

Don't forget the bubblegum!

My outlook here is, and what you may wish to consider, is that as a nation, we have relied on the development of nuclear, to the exclision of other plentiful options. As a result, not only have we opened a pandora's box of nuclear waste, as importantly, the use of nuclear has in actuality left...

Yes, gasoline prices will once again be lower, only after this country FINALLY gets serious about developing complete suites of alternatives that allows for the efficient conversions of our own plentiful resources into transportational fuels, that we transition from other current uses. I...

What's the opposite of 'Merger Monday'?... Bank-Failure Friday!

The Fed has decided to open the discount window, and term auction facility to ALL TRADERS, not just the I Banks. *** From now on everyone that has an open position, can seek unlimited funds from the FED, (especially if they are levered 30-1 and above!) And, if 28 days turnover terms is not...

Well, I admit, I have a biased view and opinion, and that is, you are correct in the above, if you simply reverse the order! But not to worry, the first item on your list will not occur, so the question reallt is: Obama, bearish or bullish? And the answer is, both! So, the...

Kudos to McCain Moving in the Right Direction !!!!!!!!!!!!!! [/B] ...In your dreams. I do agree that we are 'moving in the right direction', and that direction is towards a landslide Democratic sweep, long overdue I might add. The American voters, in the last mid-term...
