Let's illuminate the policy in effect now first. You must understand that the objective of the Bush war objective: gain leverage on the Persian gulf oil. because it is oil costs that can swing the Western economies in and out of recession. And of more timely urgency, it is petrol dollars that...

This thread can be browsed but has been closed to new jokes due to the sheer size of it. Continue the fun in this thread. A guy on a plane strikes up a conversation with a beautiful female next to him. He says, "What are you headed to Las Vegas for?" She replies, "I'm headed to the...

I place my money on the fly on the Brooklyn bridge.

Try John Allen Paulos' "Innumeracy". Interesting book on common misunderstandings about probability and events. Not directly related to trading but the concepts and explanations can lend themselves to trading. You should conduct your own studies on price deviation and probability of reversal...

He's already toast. He stuck by his call that 1440 was the bottom on the Naz then reneged at 1300.

Triple A, the biotechs have been one of the few sectors not to get a new A torn into it in the last month. If there is a technical reason to stay short AMGN now I can't see it. Tthat big day down last week was a bear trap.

Its interesting that a slew of analyst downgrades and Abby Jo's downward revision came on the eve of an obvious retest of the July low. What were they thinking, that if we crash through tomorrow that they gave the public warning? Or did the brokers/banks speak out to shake out stocks at a...
