    the end of UK.. RIP.

    Amazing how the proletariat can be moulded by the media. There's a potential terrorist behind every corner you know :) But then again ID cards and that sort of stuff, it's boring isn't it? The masses have more interesting things to worry about like debating the shape and size of...

    Anything to get your crappy link in.

    CNBC & Wall Street Were Expecting an Obama Rally - It Naver Came, Now What?

    True. But the 5 up-days all happened when the average temp was between -1 and -5. It's due to be within that range today. Also, when the incoming President had a daughter aged 10 or less the market has a 89% chance of finishing up on the week. Got to love Americans when anything can...

    the end of UK.. RIP.

    You talk so much crap it's actually funny :) THE real reason we didn't join the Euro is because we are an Island and therefore have (for better or worse) an Island mentaility. This is why the English will always say something like 'I'm going to Europe for my summer holidays'

    RBS - creeping nationalisation by UK government

    I wouldn't be too hard on yourself - everything is always easy and makes perfect sense after the fact. As for the oft chanted mantra of the 'banks must lend'. To whome and for what I say? Generally those who need to borrow won't qualify (personal and corporate) and those that do...

    Who buys the crap on trader monthly?

    Somebody recently wrote about the luxury market that it's amazing they're still operating as if nothing is happened, ie it's still 2005/6. They all exist right now in their own little bubble. Many of these magazines won't be around for much longer unless they change their gameplan.

    That just proves how ignorant you are.

    A couple of Hugh Hendry trading ideas

    I'd run a MILE from any fund that produces those kind of stupid returns. Not that any fund could of course. It's the mark of a gambler, not someone who approaches this game from a RISK ADJUSTED point of view.

    Excess Credit Cause of All Problems? So Relieved To Know Employment Doesn't Matter...

    Don't worry, wait until next week because then........... OBAMA will save America. He's got a plan you know - TO BORROW MORE MONEY :) :) :) Cue - soppy music, dreary soft interviews that say 'history is being made' over and over again, plenty of gushing and tears. In fact, anyone...

    U.S. Banks Need to Raise More Capital, Whitney Says

    Short Satyam Adr - Ramlinga Raju (chairman) Resignes With Biggest Scam In Indian Corp

    And the five-star independent board missed it? I'm shocked. Probably stoacked it full of business and political celebrities. Basically totally useless but their names look good to the mugs that buy the stock.

    How is trading handled in the pit during economic releases?

    It just gets offered or bid straight away. So if the market before the number is 890 and the figure is bullish somebody will go 900 bid and then it will all go crazy with (usually) fast market conditions so customers can't hold brokers to their orders. In a big pit it's also possible to...

    Why don't Americans save?

    Because many of them have been perfectly seduced by lifestyle marketing.

    How I saved $10,000, sorry Gurus

    As I've always said the word 'mentor' used to mean something. Now it means NOTHING because it's been hijacked by the marketers.....

    God bless IB, but you won't get rich with IB

    That's funny but so true at the same time :)

    Would you pull a Madoff if you had the chance?

    Many people could pull a Madoff if they were the only ones that went down or had to endure the aftermath. But what about wife, family, children etc, they bear just as much as the brunt as the lowlife man in charge. One thing that gets me about this prick is the charity money he was...

    GOOG: cloud computing

    Cloud computing could be the REAL making of Google. Yes MSFT are working hard and realise that their main asset is under threat. But MSFT's problem has been around as long as the company - it never seems to focus on how to make things easy for the user. MSFT seems to make the mistake...

    Got a letter from Oliver Velez the other day.....

    Yes, good one. I also love the crappy saying that you see from time to time - 'Learn the secrets the pros don't want you to know' :)

    Got a letter from Oliver Velez the other day.....

    As soon as anyone mentions the word 'secrets' when it comes to trading or investing you know you're being heavily marketed to and 98% of the time should steer well clear.

    Possible end of GBP

    If the Euro comes then it won't be good news for our wallets. Pretty much everyone selling anything will round prices UP. I reckon by an average of 10%. Remember, when you go on holiday and deal with another currency that you haven't got years of price experience with, you always get...
