    Why is this market going higher??

    i can empathize with you man. reality is coming. personally i've just been working on systematically defining highs in the meantime, and scaling in short at shock and awe highs with a little patience has been rewarding

    Is China a bubble?

    actually yes, i spent several years of my childhood living in Manila. have you ever been outside a highrise condo? my understanding is that in many cases families are even being kicked off property they've owned for hundreds of years.

    Why the North may really hate the South

    this thread sparked some interest in what the comparative advantages really were. this is from wiki Analysis of the Outcome Could the South have won? The goals were not symmetric. To win independence the South had to convince the North it could not win, but it did not have to invade the...

    Why the North may really hate the South

    there are misguided elitists everywhere, including the south. judgemental attitudes and a tendency to generalize are ubiquitous too i think that might be part of the north/south jesus chasm, a belief from the north that it's presumptuous of anyone to attempt to assert their values/beliefs on...

    second bull leg

    Bulls and Bears battles

    Hedge Funds invest in India

    this is a year old, maybe barriers have changed. i see refco was on the list of FII's. it's a shame that retail is left off the list of foreign participants. i would think of every segment, retail should be welcome and could make a valuable contribution to liquidity...

    HSBCdirect.com - 5.05% annual interest

    thanks vm for the links. i've been neglectful no doubt. part of it is an irrational tendency to go for banks with brand equity. what would be nice is a truly universal margin acct that lets us purchase our treasuries and mm instruments directly side-by-side with trading

    HSBCdirect.com - 5.05% annual interest

    ING is a little dissapointing with the initially good rate followed by no competetive increases. Hydro, do you get that 5.5 at everbank?
