    "Strong Dollar"?!

    I'm not an expert on the currency markets, but what does constitute most of the currency market? Capital flows? This capital moves in function to the best investing environment. Inflationary policies aren't exactly welcomed by investors.

    800 Year old Chinese Junk found

    China went into 500 years of isolationism, not exactly the kind of culture that would have promoted the conquering of the Americas. Europe on the other hand was happy to play its part. Why would 300 ships be found exploring the Americas? In all events it was discovered earlier by some lone...

    Can anyone explain how the index commodity funds stay long without taking delivery?

    But the commodities markets shouldn't be a place for investors to put their money. It's a place for speculators to determine tomorrow's prices. Most commodities are perishable too. It's stupid to have long term investors in commodities markets. I would agree that either there's a limit to how...

    Paulson - a complete and utter tool.

    The dumber his speeches and the less he says the more people he has fooled. These guys are pure masters of bullshit and of deceit. We know that if a CEO says A they really mean B, they show their hands. But the current crop of politicians are really good at sounding like retards, they beat...

    How the oil market is being manipulated

    That doesn't mean that the manipulation doesn't exist. If there is manipulation, why exactly are the future markets at the center of the commodity markets, instead of just hedging services. If there is a problem, you must first know it exists, then you can fix it.

    Youtube guy who teaches trading SnP minis?

    You're right paj, all he does is "teach" support and resistance. It takes me 3 seconds to determine the levels he explains. It's a joke, and it doesn't help he calls it "teaching you how to fish". Tell me paj, can you become profitable just by drawing your nice lines?

    Youtube guy who teaches trading SnP minis?

    These threads pop up every week or so, I'd call it spamming if I didn't know any better. The last one was identical, and foolishly trusting the ET wisdom I subscribed to him again. His videos for the most part, suck. JMHO. I have subscriptions to traders on YouTube, and this guy isn't it. I...

    Why smart regulation is the answer

    Vince, Bear Sterns(well maybe Bear Sterns) and Citygroup should never fail. The way banks are setup, they can become insolvent pretty fast. I believe 100% big banks should never be allowed to fail, unless you want another great depression. If a bank the size of citygroup fails, it will wipe out...

    Why smart regulation is the answer

    I don't exactly understand what you're saying, the 2nd and 3rd example are open for debate, and you're still generalizing. And it all begins with education, you get the word out and start debate. If the regulators are incompetent, you retrain them or you fire them.
