Well said.

I've been saying that on here for months. The NYC area really slowed down from September 08 through March, but ever since the spring it's been back to almost "normal" in regards to spending. The press made a big deal about a bunch of corporate boxes not being sold at Yankee stadium and how...

Barron's as a whole isn't nearly as good as it used to be. Alan Ableson is a perma bear. His relentless bearishness even as the market rallied 50%+ is dreadful. Hey Alan, ever hear of bear market rallies? Try going long for a month or two every once in a while. I do like Michael Santolli...

0 TD's and 1 turnover.

They (the gov) has already shown they will not let any more major institutions fail. They will make news laws, create new programs, do whatever is necessary to keep the average Joe Moron sitting on their couches in their homes watching American Idol. China and the rest of the world needs...

For all you guys ready to jump in and short AIG, take a look at TASR and HANS from a few years ago or Volkswagen from late last year. Fundamentals mean nothing during a short squeeze and the squeeze can be more brutal than you could imagine.

Moron alert.

"America's team"? WTF? They are "the epitome" of failure. Every year they do a fantastic job of tarnishing their already laughably horrible reputation. No one outside of Chicago gives a shit about the Cubs or even remotely worries about them fielding a championship caliber team...

You just said it. DUH. Open your eyes. The markets don't give a shit what the economy is doing right now.

None of what you said matters to the market right now. Goldman and the Fed want the market up, so they are walking it up. Case closed.

Funny how Favre never mentioned his arm hurt until he shit the bed the last 5 games of the season. I'm not buying it. He sucked all season long except for one great game against the Cardinals. Also, that Arizona team had ZERO wins east of the mississippi last year (0-5) and was 9-7 going...

Could not agree with you more. I am a Jets season ticket holder and had to watch Favre "heave and hope" all season long. I never thought he was nearly as good as his hype (thanks mostly to John Madden having a man crush on him), but last year he was awful, just awful. Look at his numbers...

Fuck that. Tired of bailing out some people just because they make less than other people. Either refi across the board at all income levels or don't do anything.

Maybe in the boonies like Arkansas, Alabama, Dakota's, Utah, etc. 200k income in NYC it would take a minimum of 10 years to save 1 million after taxes and living expenses, and even then only if you're relatively frugal.

I think things are still pretty bad despite what CNBC and the other publicly traded companies news services say. I think the government stepped in and mandated a "green shoots" only policy for any news organization owned and operated by a U.S. company. The propaganda machine is in overdrive...

Baron, How can you allow a sponsor to talk to people like that? Is ET really in need of a few extra dollars that you condone such behavior?

You could have done that in March and you didn't. If we do get back there you and all the other perma bears will say we are still going another 30% lower and miss another massive rally. Likewise, all the perma bulls are still holding long from 14,000 and expecting this rally to last 3...

Detroit is an isolated example. A dying industry and stupid black people who would rather "keep it real" with a corrupt black mayor/council than elect people who could fix the problems.
