Wuss Bernanke will never raise rates.

So much pain to come because of this twerp.

Because the Fed is lying. They have no intention of cutting rates.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out (you and your pal W).

Does the Safari chart end prematurely because it crashed?

All interest rates are underreporting inflation in all currencies.

I never proposed anything about supply and demand in my post. Regardless of how much supply and demand there is for commodities, if the currency that everything is priced in falls like the US dollar has, then commodities will naturally go up. So your point that it has absolutely nothing to do...

The fault of the meteoric commodity rise can be placed squarely on the Fed's shoulders. By setting interest rates artificially low and by pumping money into the system like there is no tomorrow, the Fed is the root of the commodity problem. If the US would have the courage to raise rates, watch...

Why would I want to overpay for my computer?

Opportunity cost. Nice job though - willing to take $57 points of heat for a $4 gain!

I am talking about millisecond precision here. I wouldn't expect there to be a difference in second resolution.

NBBO doesn't apply in afterhours. I am just guessing here, but he might have had his order on a different ECN than where your order got routed to. So say his order was on ISLD and your order went on ARCA. Those two orders won't match with each other if they are directed specifically to those...

Probably arbed by a third party. Legal.

Best thread title ever!

You are either paying the interest already, or your preparer is full of crap and you owe more taxes. Either way, the sucker is probably you.

Except in locations where the only real choice is cable. In that case you are just hosed. I wish FiOS would be rolled out faster.

Then what are the exchanges this will apply to? A list would be nice.

I don't trust the government to implement a consumption tax. My feeling is that we would eventually end up with an income and consumption tax.

This is mentioned a lot as a reason for lowering taxes, but I have a feeling that a lot of people who pay 0% in taxes now will not pay the 15% tax anyway. Is there any evidence that the number of people who would start paying taxes if taxes were lowered would be enough to offset the lost taxes...

I guess I view the world in terms of right and wrong. I don't think anyone can morally defend what the AMT has become. However, I understand your point, but your attitude sucks. I take it you put yourself in the select few "who understand what is going on." Give me a break.
