Don't count on it. The higher it tests, the sharper the sell off. I think we see 480 again. (hoping) Not sure where silver will bottom temporarily.

Ummm... I wouldn't be so quick with that sonny... Yes, it might be a new upmove, but... might set a profit target before 620ish, at least for part of your position.

Buy the rumor, sell the fact? Maybe a little of that already.

I keep stating this, but I feel there is an attempt to raise long term rates to allow for coverage of obligations by pensions/etc.. without bk's imploding the world financial system. I guess that the FED/Treasury is looking for a long term rate of 8% by 2010 if they can get there, but I don't...

Quoting from article: China's wealth gap It's likely to produce even greater regional conflict in China between rich and poor provinces. And a failure to produce the goods undermines the ruling Communist government's only remaining foundation of legitimacy. If the Beijing government can't...

An economist would argue that there is a resource drain, of oh say, .05% of GDP from terrorist related activities. Of course, that would translate into contracts and government support of industries that are supported by homeland security (defense contractors, etc...) In frankness, if you...

Dude.... seems like you are getting whipped. Your MA system is getting chopped up in this 580 range here... maybe you should play a call instead so that at least if you get whipped around you can hold onto the position... Its gonna go, sure... but by that point, will you have any capital...

i did it for you, maria.... love, ben. :D

Since you only have four limbs, perhaps you would not mind parting with just one? (the books. not your limbs) :) Also trying to be a book collector - Bocaccio's Decameron & other classical literature is my fave.

that is very interesting.... still short the 30.

In fairness, most defense analysts now think of space as the next battlefield. The air force will become more of a space force as weapons are built to attack ground targets from space or intercept enemy ICBM's, etc... This isn't a new concept - military planning has been thinking this way at...

Didn't we do that with the Shah of Iran? That didn't work out too well for us, if I recall... cost Jimmy his presidency too!

Yes. And that's the problem... "oops, we were aiming for the ocean, not land"

Not so fast sparrow... North korea fuels ICBM... http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/asiapcf/06/18/nkorea.missile.reut/index.html That should keep it bid a little while... nothing like a nuke attack on US soil to devalue the USD and send people fleeing to hard money in preparation for a...

I think we need an inflation/deflation thread here in economics. This issue just keeps coming up, again and again. And I'm sorry, but there is absolutely NO clarity in my mind which of these will predominate - and I've read 'em all from Schilling to Dent, so at least I am a well read idiot on...

Are we being arrogant in our assumptions about our relationship with our god? Why do we assume that god grants our prayers, or is even listening? And why is it necessary for god to do so - it certainly does not diminish or nullify his godhood to ignore us. Nor does it take away from the...

With everyone and their mother predicting $580 as the support, I'm not sure that's the best level. IMHO a better support point is 540-550. Would love to see it go to sleep for a few years. Don't think we will be that lucky, but G8 meeting undoubtedly will focus on global financial...

WHO Bought... spill... 00 account?

snork.... markets dive a few hundred more points, maybe bin laden gets killed too! j/k trying to find humor....
