Being sarcastic, are you? It's much more difficult to make money "on the downside" because so many powerful forces try to prevent/short circuit declines. Still doable if you're sharp and disciplined.... and any degree of that is better than "taking it in the shorts, all the way down because...

I was following the "reported polls" before the German election... looked like Merkel was in danger of being outsted. Yet, she got reelected. What a shame. Just goes to show the degree to which the people really are sheeple. Instead of being granted another term of governance, she...

The trade to catch that HUGE last minute pop yesterday (>100 NQ points) was pickable ~ 10 minutes before the close. The short from NQ 6770 this morning was pickable too. Hope all you students are getting your money's worth. :)

As traders, none of this should be a concern for us. He's describing the challenges of "buy and hold", "diversification", and "asset allocation" under what are perhaps unfavorable conditions. Being small enough to be nimble....with the opportunity to do sector rotation and to short.... we have...

Perhaps Buffett made the bet with a "half-ass" trader instead of a "half-decent" one.

Lots of traders think they have an edge, or hope they can find one, yadayada... Fact is, there is NO EDGE on the markets that is legal. Only ones I know of are illegal.... front-running and trading on insider info. Anything else traders think of as "edge" is delusion. (Even if you are a...

If you're a "half-decent" trader, you can STOMP Buffett's "buy and hold". Unfortunately, becoming "only half-decent" at coping with the markets is difficult

Disagree. Time is a plus, but not an edge on the market.

Lefties to blame. They've recruited the young with the notion, "you deserve, are entiteled and can have everything... just vote for us". (Of course they don't get everything.. at least not until Bernie Sanders becomes POTUS... but they get waaayyy more than they deserve and have earned for...

Bomers were the largest generation. They paid the most taxes by a HUGE margin. Their taxes and entrepreneurship BUILT this country. Any bitches namby-pamby millenials think they have against the Boomers should be directed at the POLITICANS! I never even heard of an incident where the Boomers...

Authored by Vijeta Uniyal via The Gatestone Institute, A report commissioned by the German government found that newly-arrived asylum seekers were behind more than 90% percent of the increase in violent crimes in the state of Lower Saxony. As of December 2017, an estimated 600,000...

That's 11.33% average annual return including dividends... and with the Fed pumping and debasing the $USD by 99% or so, not including taxes, of course.

DAMN... you seem to think you're some kind of special to evaluate and judge everybody else. If someone is "not accredited", then they are worthless? Weren't you non-accredited yourself at one time?... (assuming of course that you actually are accredited and not just trying to blow smoke up...

So... in your mind, someone pointing out that you've made an error in judgement is "Threat, taking it up a level"? WTF is wrong with you?

Granted, he's got some warts. Personally I think we need to consider where he comes from. But at least he apears to not be a Lefty-Commie, Hell-bent on destroying our country. That's my view.

You don't know anything about that. You've just made an "assumption"....wrong one, too. If you want to be respected you need to be careful about how you run your mouth, don't you think?

Read a story on Bloomberg(?) a couple of days ago..... "10-year @ 3.00% isn't the red line in the sand... It's 3.05%"!

Then, "ignore Trump"?

He does seem to like to tell us "how he trades".... like he (or any one of us) has a monopoly on brains and therefore should deserve the consideration and respect of others. (Personally, I wouldn't be comfortable with his apparent style.) Of course I'm guilty of the same, so to speak. "Buy...

Ignorant. Full of shit, you are.
