    Here's How Bad Vegas Is - Don't Let the 'Green Shoot' Crowd Bullshit You

    It was way better back when that shopping center REIT was throwing those intense parties at GVR, complete with erotic dancers (not really, but close enough), live, major rock bands playing, and fireworks to cap the night. If you didn't have an invite, security was tighter than the White...

    Here's How Bad Vegas Is - Don't Let the 'Green Shoot' Crowd Bullshit You

    Wah Wah Wah!!! I'm Landis! I like to follow people around and tell them they're paid by Baron! I'm so busy with my trading and profiteering, that I like to stalk about 43 people on ET and respond, worthlessly, in each thread they post! Wah Wah Wah!

    Here's How Bad Vegas Is - Don't Let the 'Green Shoot' Crowd Bullshit You

    Hey, imbecile, you never responded to my last point in your beloved China thread, wherein I pointed out that it took China 600 billion in stimulus to float an officially reported 7.9% GDP quarterly growth rate (a 1.8% bump from the prior quarter), and if exports don't pick up, how much of their...

    Only those without debt will survive this longlasting recession?

    Boom, there goes the dynamite. We have a winner. I have seen this with my own two eyes happen to so many people I've lost count.

    Here's How Bad Vegas Is - Don't Let the 'Green Shoot' Crowd Bullshit You

    In areas of New Mexico and Arizona (as well as Nevada), that's almost a necessity as a home defense setup, as home invasions and even kidnappings have skyrocketed. For those responding to the article, and not trolling like some people (Landis), the article states 5,000 waiters and waitresses...

    The Insurgents: The Secret Battle To Save Capitalism

    Looks like Obama is truly anything BUT a reformer. - "Maria Cantwell sat aghast in front of the TV in her Senate office last fall, watching Wall Street crash. Not long after her arrival in D.C. in 2001, Enron imploded. Energy speculators wielding complex derivatives had gouged her...

    •Foreclosure Filings in U.S. Increase to Record 1.5 Million in First Half

    But a bunch of people in 'the eternal optimists' club' on ET say this is irrelevant; another 'lagging indicator.' Some of these same people were calling for a housing bottom in 2008, and a foreclosure bottom the same year. Where is it? We could be at 15% unemployment, which I believe we...

    Here's How Bad Vegas Is - Don't Let the 'Green Shoot' Crowd Bullshit You

    I wonder if Baron pays you to run around and whine about Baron. :eek: To everyone claiming this is a garden variety recession, cyclical in nature, and a return to pre-2005 levels is around the corner, you could not be more wrong. The U.S. has changed in the most fundamental way...

    Bombshell •China Faces `Unprecedented Difficulties' in Attracting Foreign Investment

    Here's a simple math question for you - China spent 600 billion to stimulate growth from 6.1% last quarter to 7.9% this quarter. China has 2 trillion in USD savings in their central bank. How much more money does China have to stimulate their economy, as they can no longer rely on...

    •Foreclosure Filings in U.S. Increase to Record 1.5 Million in First Half

    More 'Green Shoots!' We're going to see strong growth as the unemployment rate skyrockets along with foreclosure rates (hard to believe they're getting actually worse), and Dennis Kneale is a genius for calling an end to the recession. After all, jobs and the ability to keep one's home...

    "Economy Worse Than You Think"... Mort Zukerman 7/13/2009

    If you think inflation is going to save an economy with 65% factory utilization and plunging demand for discretionary goods; even gasoline and some necessities, you are seriously misled. Inflation won't happen, and even if it does, it will only suppress equity values in what is the most...

    Here's How Bad Vegas Is - Don't Let the 'Green Shoot' Crowd Bullshit You

    Who goes to Vegas? Everyone from coast to coast. I've been there for the ICSC Convention the last 6 years. I've never seen things so slow. This year, there were 25% of the attendees of three years ago. No one was spending money. This is a perfect indicator of the where things are headed in...
