I don't know about that blog. I've read 4 or 5 of his articles, all of which I have issues with. Maybe I just haven't found his hidden gems yet. :p

-8? :eek: A cold front swept through AZ this week. The temp dipped all the way down to 63 today. My girlfriend and I stay huddled together to conserve body heat. No joke. We're cold. Global warming my ass. Without all the carbon output from the industrial revolution, we would be in...

"Schiff made no allowances for being wrong and had no exit strategy whatsoever. I'm a firm believer in "don't believe anything you hear and only half of what you see," but I wonder if this statement is true. Peter couldn't be that stupid, could he? Surely he had a plan B. If it's true, it...

I'm a Panerai guy myself. When I think Phillep Patek, I think cake eaters and wine spitters.

The simple fact that we are comparing today's problems with the Great Depression is compelling testimony that we are indeed spoiled rotten. Nothing like a financial crisis to uncover the misdeeds of our politicians and business leaders. I only worry that the current circumstances will subside...

Daytraders should just flip a coin. Heads, go long, tails, short it. If the position moves against you, close it. If the position is profitable, hold on tight. :D All I can say is thank god for derivatives. I don't know how you daytraders put up with all the drama.

I don't know about the Dow, but something positive needs to happen for the SPX trend to reverse. Can you think of anything positive that will happen in the next 3 months?

He made 3.7 billion by betting Lehman Brothers, Washington Mutual and Wachovia would fail, risking his own financial ruin in the process. I'd like to see all his bets for the last 2 years. Did he get anything wrong? If not, there should be some serious red flags raised. I having nothing...

I laugh when I see people driving 4WD where I live. Higher initial cost, increased fuel consumption, more expensive to maintain, and they'll never see the snow or off road use.

Palm trees are green at the tips :D I guess I spent too much time in the Southeast. I'm all greened out, not to mention the humidity. And it sounds like you don't know the climate of northern AZ. It's plenty green up there, and it snows, too, if you're into that sort of thing. And the...

Green isn't all it's cracked up to be. There's a lot of beauty in the desert. San Diego is the ultimate for mild climate, but it will not meet your 100-200k requirement. Though, if you buy now, your retirement home would probably double in value in the next decade since the market is so...

And yes, OP, on almost every level, our current crisis is certainly a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I googled "paragraph," a mysterious and elusive concept around here. Term: Paragraph Definition: A paragraph is an organisational feature of written English, and many other languages as well. It is a group of sentences, or possibly a single sentence, separated from the rest of the text...

Have you read his book? It could be all smoke and mirrors by a corrupt former SEC chairman, but there was some insight in that book. With so much money involved, the political forces are pulling and pushing the SEC in every direction imaginable.

Read Arthur Levitt's book, "Taking on the Street" The situation is complex.

Hopefully the Government has taken advantage of the opportunity, grabbed the financial institutions by their collective balls and forced them to write down these fraudulent transactions. My outsider's educated guess says the whole reason for the short ban was to control bogus short...

You're English? So what the hell is your problem then? Nobody in the U.S. has a problem with the U.K (we love the Canadians, too, but you have to joke with your neighbors ever once in awhile, right?). And do you really think we don't realize our own mistakes and weaknesses? You need to get...

QED, indeed, but like I said earlier, there is more than enough to go around.

A lot of buyers to absorb that selling, too. Or a lot of sellers to absorb all that buying.
