Someone has to buy the extra $500 Billion per year in gov't debt that was agreed to in December. If not the Fed, then who?

I don't have a background in this field, but it seems like the last paper from that link might imply that he saw no extra rays during that part of the test. If that is what the author of the last paper at that link is implying, then what I said earlier about needing to see extra rays or...

Oil might be up because of fear the unrest will spread. From a technical standpoint: another verification I'd like to see, in addtion to created copper, is that there were rays created during the experiment. It was pointed out you would expect to see either x-rays or gamma rays created...

The Fed is buying $600B of the deficit for this fiscal year . The main question I have is who is buying the other $900B? I thought China was slowing down their purchases of US debt.

The Dems had control of The Oval Office, Senate, and House for two years. They proposed no meaningful budget cuts. Now, they will have to accept a lot of Republican budget cuts they dont like.

You have an interesting take on this bear. My feeling is this centers on whether the nickel/hydrogen was converted to copper. It would take an atom level reaction of some sort to change one element to another, I believe. If they can prove that atom reaction happened, this might go somewhere.

I read some of the articles. Apparently, they might be using nanoparticles to assist with the reaction. As nanoparticles weren't widely available 20 years ago, perhaps this was what was missing. Also, nanoparticles can cost $1000 per gram. So, if someone buys a quantity if them to...

I've always believed that cold fusion would probably work at some point since I first heard about it around '89. The scientists whose funding was paid for by research in other energy fields were never able to repeat the results, but they were also never able to conclusively disprove them...

Can't believe you guys haven't figured out why, since Spygate, the Patriots offense can blow teams out during the regular season but struggles against the same defenses during the playoffs. And, it has nothing to directly do with Spygate. I've cleearly noticed that, since Spygate, teams that...

So creating money out of thin air creates jobs? We will have to wait on that one. When a company "creates money out of thin air" ( share dilution) it usually results in the share price's falling and lost confidence in the company. It will be interesting to see if the dilution going on now...

ADE, all date everywhere, works a lot better.

My point is that the stimulus was not properly spent. I've seen articles about it taking $500K to $1Million or more to create one new job. There is no way to put millions of people to work at that job creation rate. the job creation rate should be closer to $100K per job to have any real...

It's almost like all the money spent went to the wrong places. I feel a direct job creation program would have been better than stimulus.

The economy needs to add ~125K jobs per month to keep the UE rate constant, and at least 2X that to lower the rate. And this does not include workers who drop out of the labor force because of lack of work. If 100K jobs is the best the economy can do after all the stimulus spending and tax...

Can I ask why no Jan 5 results? I've seen several systems that skip days without preannouncing the days that will be skipped. The days skipped are often days where money was lost. I'd suggest you pre-announce any days you plan to skip trading if you want people to follow this thread.

You mean gasoline going to $4 right? As gas and food are nmot part of the core CPI, we will see if this jump in prices gains anny political attention.

In regards to the 3rd article, if the West is willing to spend tons of money on research and then send the technologies created to China, then why would China need to spend on research? Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?

Rare Earths had a little hiccup. But the combination of China's cutting quotas again and an article which estimated that it would take the US 15 years or so to become self sufficient has prices zooming again. This move up could be yet another Rare Earth fakeout that reverses back down or it...

This is only true if all of the debt is denominated in USD. If at some point in the future, new debt is denominated in another currency or asset, the US of course, can't print it's way out of the debt. Few people on this site seem to know that Germany's WW1 reparation debt was not in...

I know I'm wasting my breath again, but here goes. Soc Sec and Medicare ARE NOT welfare. You pay a tax of up to 7.7% of your paycheck to have soc sec and medicare when you need it. Anyone who has paid 7.7% of their salary for a service and are fine to just throw it away with nothing in return...
