Chinese Gov't is clamping down on stimulus money and prompted bank loan cash going into Shanghai Composite Index. This is a very serious, bubble-licious situation.

I don't think Eric's bullishness on crude is going to pan out too well. Just a hunch...

I couldn't be more disappointed with Obama. He is tragically allowing the same assholes who put this country into the bind it's in run things. He has reneged on his promise as a true reformer, and has lost all credibility on the economy. This is why we need a viable third party, that...

In the meantime, the government is handing out vouchers for consumption junkies to trash perfectly good cars to buy a new one, and encouraging people to build or buy a new house with other types of vouchers. Same shit, different day, with an absolutely contradictory message from the government.

All these kids coming back all f**ked up from Iraq were brainwashed by the neocons. They thought they were fighting some righteous cause. It isn't the case. The victims of the Iraq War were innocent Iraqi civilians, American Soldiers just trying to do their jobs, the American Taxpayer...

The only way price can rise 300% based on a 10% increase in demand is if the supply is being manipulated through other than truly free market forces. And that's exactly the situation the CFTC finally has acknowledged happened.

Would you really agree to have your legs removed for 12 million dollars? That's a raw deal.

Copper demand is slowing significantly in China. Now, the Chinese Government has to decide whether to unfurl another stimulus package, which was far more effective at $550 billion, because it directly targeted consumers, than our boondoggle was.

Gotta' love all these overly complex responses justifying high crude oil prices. Common sense rules. Manipulators were tying up physical oil, without having to take delivery, through the use of options and other devices, using leverage, ensuring such oil would not be delivered. That's...

At some point, sooner rather than later, the unemployment and resentment rate will be so high in this country, attacks on Wall Street types will be common. Rich man-Poor man U.S.A. With the working class types who got the shaft loaded to the gills with guns. It won't be pretty.

DeBaser, I thought about what you wrote regarding loading up on the financials when many of them were near $1 or $3 or so. It would have taken an incredible leap of faith to buy many of these banks and such at the meltdown period, as the government had demonstrated it would not save all...

Good call. Honestly, I wasn't aware of any of this until this morning, based on an email from a friend. But yes, it's very similar.
