    A coup for China

    I don't agree with Mike Huckabee on much, but when he said that this rebate is foolish he is spot on. We are going to borrow billions of dollars from China, that we have to pay interest on, to send it out. Consumers will then go out and buy stuff, probably not stuff made in America, but more...

    My trades room

    I always wonder why it really matters what others think when you can do a trial yourself and make up your own mind. I think that might be part of the problem a lot of people in rooms have with making money in the market in the first place, they dont trust their own opinions and follow through on...

    ranging market and trading

    You have two choices, figure out how to trade in a range (reversion systems) or go to cash and wait it out when an overall range that you can not profit from develops.

    Is Roger Clemens lying his ass off?

    I think he is lying, but I dont care really either. Its a bunch of BS that Congress has seen fit to get involved with baseball. When I watch baseball I want to see someone throw the ball hard, and I want to see Homeruns. If its just a game of RBI's I will fall asleep. If they want to take...

    Market commentary

    He's not selling anything that he forces anyone to buy. Ivica runs a chatroom on othernet, one of the better one's IMHO and he charges a small fee to join (I think its about $100 a month). Ivica worked for Toni and I for six years co-moderating Mainstreet with us. He is one of the most...

    Rational Thoughts in an Irrational World

    I had planned to keep this journal and my blog active every day, and will still do my best to do so. As many on here known I have been having health problems the last year or so, and earlier this week as I was taking a shower I noticed a large lump under my nipple, I had gone and had the...

    Ex-Israeli generals denounce checkpoints

    My own thoughts are to agree with the Generals who wrote to the Isreali legislators, but one also has to understand politics etc. What do I mean? A great example of this is the rebates that we are all going to be getting here soon. It does nothing to stimulate the economy at all, it just...

    Rational Thoughts in an Irrational World

    JB Hunt is one of the leading stocks in the trucking group. Over the last several weeks Transports, including Rails and Truckers, have been trying to carve out a bottom in the market and move higher. JBHT has been one of the leaders. As you can see on the chart it has a large gap up that occured...

    Why should anyone buy stocks now?

    There are plenty of stocks that are worth looking at. Just because you are in an overall bear market does not mean that every aspect of the market is in a bear market. A very good examploe of this would be the homebuilders, they started a remarkable bull market move around Dec of 2000, in the...

    How do I short student loan debt

    There is a federal agency like Fannie Mae, or Freddie Mac that does them, but I cant remember the stock symbol. Probably it wouldnt be a bad idea on my part to try to remember it.

    Georgians want Tenn. water

    The Government, or at least the Democrats, would like to raise my taxes. I'm not really all that much in favor of it, even though I have plenty of money. I must be one greedy SOB.

    3rd World America: By UofM Economist Carmen Reinhart & Harvard Economist Ken Rogoff

    I think very strongly that the United States Milatary services should be combined into one force under a single chain of command. I know that each branch has its own history and is rightly proud of it, but things could be accomplished in a much more cost effective way if we had one force...

    spoiled brats

    I shared this link with my dad, he is 62. He told me about the time he was 9 years old and he and his older brother desided to go and build a ramp with their bike. His brother crashed and broke his arm pretty bad. They lived way out in the country, no phone and only one car in the family. They...

    The fuckwits are the ones left in the race. Clinton had a suprlus as long as you dont hold anyone to GAAP..but hell its the govt, so lets just close our eyes and let em make two sets of rules. We do need a turnaround specialist in the WH, but he dropped out yesterday.

    spoiled brats

    Also, when I was a kid, if you went out for the baseball team and you couldnt hit the ball, the other kids beat the shit out of you for making the team lose all the time. There was no participation trophy, if you sucked, you got beat up. Its kinda like Jack Welsh, if your unproductive, fired! No...
