No nation can maintain prosperity without manufacturing high value added goods. If you lose this capacity - the capacity to make specialized, technologically intense, expensive, and highly desired products (think aircraft, optics, medical instruments, precision machine tools, microprocessors...

100% room no risk upside to go!

Analysts are idiots who set arbitrary price targets on stocks - with suspicious upgrades and downgrades. It's a practice that is rife with manipulation and should be banned. It has as much credibility as the ratings of Moody's and S&P approximately a year ago. Great job on MBI and ABK...

Only fools compare the cost of Starbucks coffee and gasoline.

Bernanke is, to use technical jargon, an asshole, so pick the most rational course, and then assume he'll do the opposite. With that assumption, he never fails to disappoint.

You win a ceeegar.

Pop quiz time: What's the most conspicuously odd thing about the recent downtrend?

Kudlow actually wants fed hikes. Can you believe it? Even people as obtuse as Kudlow understand Bernanke is ruining the U.S. economy, stoking inflation, and doing nothing for financials with his idiotic fed funds rate. A move toward a strong dollar would truly do some good. Bernanke...

Goldman Slacks is the de facto federal reserve; they can act as the PPT or Boy Plunger, depending on whether they're short or long.
