    I Cannot Believe Pequot Capital Management Is Folding

    Because of the rational and detailed responses in this thread, and despite the apparent front running and other illicit activities Pequot was apparently involved in, I have reassessed my views of Pequot, and realize I had them pegged wrong and gave them too much credit. I always viewed them...

    The Big Inflation Scare - Oooooh, How Scary; Prove Him Wrong

    I've made the same case Krugman is making and I think he's right about deflation trumping inflation (b/c the money being 'printed' is not entering the real economy, but recapitalizing banks and a few companies - plus consumer prices are low and wages actually declining or stagnant). I don't...

    How Can This Be Overcome By US Workers?

    The globalists want everyone to have the same standard of living, and the same allegiance. They're getting their way, as the world marches onward and downward in that direction. Let's hope the globalists are dealt the same fate as the royalty in the wake of the French Revolution.

    The Coming 2nd Crash; It's On The Way

    A friend that I respect very much (he told me to buy oil futures in 2006 because oil would hit $150 - I laughed. He wasn't offended; he turned out to be right) sent me this article. I know that it's from a 'gold bug' site, but it's well written and contains some key data sets to back up its...

    Jeff Macke has officially lost his marbles
